Preview 2022 Mid Season draft - Hawks take Ramsden and Blanck

The club that is playing Powell & Phillips in the VFL because they have too many inside mids selects...the inside mid. It writes itself.

I'm not sure if Phillips has played any games this year. Still, it's a confusing choice with their midfield depth.

He has had glandular fever.

Hawks may look to add a ruck, if Reeves is out for the year.

Hawks may look to add a ruck, if Reeves is out for the year.

Given that statement I reckon it's odds on we pick another ruck with one of our 2 picks.

Probably a prudent move given we are down to one fit ruck and if Lynch goes down we are in all kinds of trouble.

 

[SJT76]

If Reeves is out for the year, hopefully the extra ruck is with an additional (3rd?) pick, not in place of “best available” with our first

 

[Dewnior]

193cm mid who can play forward and kick goals from the middle.

If he’s there at Pick 2 and they don’t take him they should shut the joint down.

They should have shut it down ages ago. I've got zero confidence that will ever happen.

The process of Blanck being widely unknown to 'best player' in the mid season draft has begun...

 

[BIGHAWK23]

I think we pick up Blanck

The interesting thing is written between the lines. We’d have taken him in March if we were allowed to?

This is the vibe i got

Would be on the list if we could have

Why wouldn't have he been allowed to?

Between those lines we are picking him for sure.

I thought the article said we weren't allowed to have him train with us, didn't think that extended to not taking via SSP, but makes sense

He didn’t nominate for the national draft which is why he needed an exemption for the msd.

 

[TylerDurden]

Clinical by foot.

 

[hawkheart]

Is a team with a pick before us likely to draw a Blanck? Or is he ours if we want him?

 

[rei154]

I've watched a fair bit of BH and Blanck doesn't ever stand out which I think is a massive positive. He doesn't seem to get beaten and seems to be really athletic and a hard worker. I'd be happy for us to nab him and an inside mid or a big ruck. Shame the injury to Reeves means we can't afford to look at another project type.

He did train with us though. He was there for a lot of sessions.

Was that Covid top up numbers possibly?

Would love to pick him up. Unassuming tall defender is something our list lacks. DGB plays with more presence than that and Frostball speaks for itself.

That's possibly how they sold it to the AFL.

 

[eldorado]

I'd be more than happy to take Blanck...he impresses at BH.

With Hartigan just about done, and Frost 29 this year, a 21 yo big man with 3 years of muscular development in him is the perfect age profile.

So, Culley, Blanck, O'Neill, D'Ambrosia, quite a few other choices...we should be confident of landing a potential first-team player

 

[TheFourPillars]

Trained with us again today.

 

[TylerDurden]

It's happening isn't it?

 

[hawkguru]

Haven't seen much off blanck but I thought he was very impressive last week against Richmond. Took some nice intercepts and spoils well, I even saw some nice evasive skills in the 3 qtr when he danced around 3 opponents and set up a nice pass. Definitely a look at our 2nd pick but will he be available then will be the big question.

 

[TheFourPillars]

He was there with 3 or 4 others
