Player Watch 2023 AFL Draft Pool Discussion Thread

[Strapping Young Lad]

Same rule applies to this thread as other years, keep it on topic about the kids.
Don’t get bogged down on what other teams might do or where they will finish.

Trade speculation belongs here.
That's also where you can discuss your mock drafts or pick trades.

Any McCabe, Dear or Maginness talk belongs here.

Brocky just promoting his good mate Sparkle!!

I really like Narkle and thing he'd add something very different to our midfield mix.

I was keen on looking at Narkle a few years ago, but not now. We have enough talented young midfielders that will find it hard to get meaningful midfield time, so we don't need another older player to come into the mix.

Luke Teal grew up a hawks fan. Lock it in Eddie. Pick 1/2 MSD

He's only 25.

No to another predominantly inside mid, we're already a work in progress there with youngsters who ARE doing a good job. Frwds please.

Is he someone you forsee being able to come in and developing into a first team midfielder? Would he be getting game time in the middle over Mackenzie and Ward?

More of a winger, but his tank is a concern.

he is 190cm & 81kg
Only problem I have is we have enough half backs but he has put together few good games and seems like a hard worker. Not sure of list fit. Can he play other positions.

I want us to trial KPP's like Maric or Ethan Philips or Jack Buller or even Brandon Ryan

 

[Philhawk]

Ramsden and Newk. Fair to say we love the MSD. Fascinated to see who we get. Hope it's a young KPP.

If he were good he'd be playing at Geelong though, right?

Tassie tussle set to shape top of AFL Mid-Season Draft order

Both the Hawks and Eagles are in line to open the mid-year count, and could have their sights on the same players.

Pretty good article on the mid season, wonder if the eagles will take Buller or Maric, they need both. Maric looks like the one we want. Increase the forward scoring power

A winger with a bad tank is like a ruckman thats under 6 foot

This thread is not about where you think we will finish.

Read the pinned thread.

Apologies, was more to say that I think Maric and Buller may be out of reach. I would pick up Narkle, but not with our first pick, you have to take young talent if it's there.

 

[KermitJagger]

He's only 25.

Narkle is playing average footy in the VFL. Bloke had one good AFL game 2 years ago and has somehow maintained this reputation as a gun who just needs another chance.

I, for one, blame the President of his fan club. Cough SYL cough.

 

[TylerDurden]

Reminds me of a young Sicily.

 

[Noel Gallagher]

We will end up with pick 3 after we beat WCE, and North loose again by a fair margin

Played a bit of Wing / mid according to the heraldsun. An on sunday for the young guns, looked to have good skills.

Weddle and Teal 190 plus speedy wingers for Worps to feed out to?
