List Mgmt. 2025 AFL Draft - Draft Analysis

[GoTigers2015]

Dyson Sharp not in consideration for picks 3 or 4 according to Cal Twomey's Phantom Draft

So much for "inside knowledge" about Richmond drafting Sharp and Cummings.

 

[THE_GUN]

48 hours to go. I'm sure now that the phantom draft is out people will calm down on the posting...

Safeway has sold out of Tissue's

 

[Truetiger]

Which mod can ban you ?

haha see how we go come Wednesday

 

[Shogun]

I like the look of Sullivan Robey, and I can absolutely see why Cal has connected us to him, but I’m a little cautious because the body of work isn’t as deep as what someone like Dyson Sharp has produced. Robey’s ceiling is high and the traits are obvious, but the floor is lower and that always carries some risk, especially at our current stage of the list cycle.





Richmond traditionally keep things very tight around draft time, so I do wonder whether this is genuine interest or just the usual smoke and mirrors. That said, I trust Blair Hartley’s eye for character and projection. If the club sees the tools translating, you back their judgement, because the talent ID history is strong.





Part of me wonders if this is the continuation of the Chris Toce legacy of backing upside and development over the safer, more exposed junior. I’m not against the Robey pick at all, but there’s a valid argument that someone more proven could help stabilise the list sooner.





Happy to be proven wrong, but those are the dynamics I’m weighing up.

I will be fine with Robey and Cumming. My preference is still for Taylor over Cumming. Grlj will be painful to miss on but I feel those 3 are just better prospects.

 

[ShereKhan]

So, if we do end up taking Robey & Cumming, which current Richmond mids need to start getting worried?

Hopper?

We will trade out Hopper or TT end of 2026… probably Hopper. A win/win … frees up $750k, gets us an early 2nd rounder to match F/S and academy bids, gives midfield time for youngsters. And lets Hopper have a crack at a flag somewhere else…. or if he stays from 2027 onwards Hopper may be playing VFL …

 

[tiger_tough]

Delisted from VFL - Scott

 

[Muddiemoose]

For a shit draft, there's looking like being quite a few handy players still available at the Young pick.

Was never a shit draft just an even one
Not as much super rolled gold talent as last years and most of that top tier linked to accadamy/ father son but still plenty of talent spread across a big group

That’s what has made it so difficult for the draft watches to predict and why they differ so much

 

[GoTigers2015]

Carlton fan's melting

Can't wait for the Michaels Cal Twomey phantom draft review with him cumming in his robe tomorrow morning.

 

[Rubber Hips]

You’d have to feel a truckload of sympathy If XT is drafted by Druggos…..

Keep in mind Robey will grow to 194cm, and is a very strong mark and good on the lead. He could easily become a Cam Rayner type hybrid marking forward who ends up more predominantly forward, to complement the less agile Faull and Armstrong.

no

 

[fargothegreat]

Carlton is essentially trading picks 9 and 11 for 3, 22 and an F2. Good deal or nah?

In isolation, yes. Carlton fans think Dean is worth a bid at 6, rather than at 3. They're sooking about the lost value.

Yeah I guess it really does depend on where you rate Dean.
