Analysis 2023 Draft Watch

[Arr0w]

Still leaves one spot open

There's 1 more spot.
We either take another draft pick or DFA or PSD, OR we elevate another rookie and take a rookie pick or leave a spot open for SSP.

Might look at a DFA, but suspect it will be SSP/mid season draft

So potentially 3 draftees, plus Hollands and Cinc?

For some reason I thought Cinc was included in our 4 vacant spots

This is where I’d love to get the Werribee player. Plays a position of need, especially if Hollands plays mostly mid.

 

[Coona Blues]

We will take 2 draftees and elevate Cincotta and that's it

Where is this Cincotta elevation info coming from? Nothing on CFC site.

 

[HereComesJuddy]

I don’t think we will be moving up to 8 and suspect we may intend to burn our 2024 1st at the draft.

I’m expecting us to take picks 22 and 26 still and if there’s a player we like also in the 23 - 30 bracket we may trade our F1 to get an extra pick this year as long as we get a F3 in return.

3 top 30 players in and a F3 pick to add to our points needed for the Campo boys in 2024

 

[DangerousD]

Now that we have added Hollands and expecting the Campo kids are mids/HB/Wings next year, what are your thoughts on what we will target this year?

I don’t see us going for half backs or wings, rucks, or intercept defenders.

I see an opening with a KPD and an mid/fwd as being the biggest areas of need.

After this, general forwards

Would be an interesting move and depending who we are trading with, we might acquire a 2nd rounder this year and a future 2nd rounder

I agree completely

 

[Juice030103]

Would be a slam dunk if we could trade up to cats and get caddy or O’Sullivan


Feel like we would be really set with young talent if we nabbed one of them

I think we would hope for more than an F3 back, we swapped a second for a second with Collingwood last year so I assume we could get similar

If we use F1 to get a pick in that range, we better be getting F2 back, not F3

Doubtful we would get a F2 back but sure, we can ask

For some reason I thought Cinc was included in our 4 vacant spots

There are 4 vacant Senior List spots, but we have 1 too many Rookies. We must elevate 1 (say Cincotta), which gives us 3 live spots.

 

[Stamos]

This is considered a weak draft. Not many deals are done straight 1st for a 2nd.
The Port - Freo deal shows the exchange rate.

 

[Bamboo Harvester]

Would be an interesting move and depending who we are trading with, we might acquire a 2nd rounder this year and a future 2nd rounder

We also have the final pick in the 1st round. If there's a slider still on the board with the last pick, there may well be clubs coming at us prior to the 1st pick in the second round the following night.

We've seen the types of ridiculous trades from clubs wanting that pick, so we may well get offered a future 2nd just by sliding down the order a few rungs.

Likely we only take two live picks at this years draft - will upgrade a rookie.
Next year’s first and 26 to move into this year’s top 12 possible but unlikely as our favs in Sanders and Caddy probably in the sights of others.

If Charlie Edwards is still on the board at 22 and we slide back, I will hunt down Austin

I’ll be joining you. Want!

 

[TerryWallet]

What do people think about Windsor? I’ve seen some footage and he glides on the deck. Would wonder if he could be repurposed as a lead up HHF. Looks like a natural lead up forward and he does like a tackle.

I get the vibe that Windsor will be moved up to Pick 11 in Twomey's update on Friday. Firming as the top pick of the 2nd tier it sounds like.

Make that 3

 

[WalshistheGOAT]

Collard at 22 and Edwards at 28 would be nice, would still like to trade up for Leake if Caddy is out of reach. Doubt we use our first next year, think the Campo boys are right in first round contention

I rate him ahead of Wilson

How do you see it Terry?

I'd be rapt with that outcome

 

[The Return of the Paf]

I'd be rapt with that outcome

Yes, but I'd be drafting Edwards first.
