List Mgmt. 2025 AFL Draft - Draft Analysis

[Charlie Pannam]

Hopefully taking small forwards means we're planning on giving the likes of campbell some midfield minutes.


our list looks normal now, not like a 10-man queue for key positions while we're forced to play mrj while fat because he's the only one who can apply pressure.

It was so unbalanced.
Took 2 talls in the 24 msd and then 4 in the ND last year.
And hung onto Colina for far too long

 

[KrispyKreme]

There will be several retirements, I would have thought.

So lynch, Prestia, broad retire?
Sonsie, steely green, kaleb smith, Samson Ryan on the chopping block?

Moved off main list potentially due to injury is Juddy? ( has all the talent to be best 22 if he can get that knee right ) which I hope more than anything else. I know they were extremely close to ripping up his 1 year contract and making it 2-4 years once he got going… so I’m devo

 

[Danog]

I think we have 2 rookie spots, no?

That's 38 main-listed players with Zane and Noah added to main list and Campbell upgraded, which leaves us with Gray, Tresize, Lefau as Cat A rookies and OHB as Cat B (so 4 total).

Can have 44 total players on a list maximum. Still potential for Kellaway + 1?

 

[KrispyKreme]

Looks like our recruiters rocked up to scout Kellaway and then decided to recruit all his teammates instead.

We might not even pick him given the likes of Burton and Greeves are in the rookie draft.

I'd still like to see him on the list. Think he's a decent prospect that improved a lot.

SA coach said he has extremely high AFL IQ but hasn’t grown into his body yet so will take 1-3 years. so I like that and would rather that than a greeves.

 

[Karp3_dm]

Yeah ok a vanilla Chris Hyde then

Free swing
Hopefully comes good

 

[Barnard]

Kickett with the Roolie Pick and Kella with the Cat B if its true we can rookie him as a Cat B

Pretty sure it’s only academy players that can be on Cat B list, not father sons. Assuming we use our rookie pick on Kellaway means we are passing on Kickett.

What time is the rookie draft on tomorrow?

 

[Truetiger]

Been great fellas, will pop in every now and then but otherwise see you for the draft chat next year given we’ll probably have similar picks to each other

lol Funny we will finish 10th and knock let’s say Collingwood out #wild

[sabso]

We’ve picked half the wu tang clan
The Sizzler, the Jizzler, Ol’ Dirty Peucker, NRThod Man

Hoping for Ghostface Killahway tomorrow

 

[Karp3_dm]

Amazing that Greaves was touted to go top 10 early in the year

Top 10 to not drafted is pretty brutal

 

[tigerdan]

Amazing that Greaves was touted to go top 10 early in the year

Too 10 to not drafted is pretty brutal

Roury Kirkby vibes

**** off we're making wildcard

 

[Jozzy]

Is it just the one rookie spot we have available tomorrow?

 

[HumanMeatball]

Greaves and Cassidy parish must be mates

 

[prodigy]

I like the strategy of drafting a few SA kids so they feel comfy

 

[Infamy]

I do assume that we'll take Kellaway with our rookie selection (I don't think we'll get another one) but Pick 2 in the rookie draft really does give us the pick of what's left over. I think we have a far bigger need for a ruckman and given we want speed I'd love for us to take a player like Krasnadamskis as a project. A 2.887-second 20m sprint at 201 cm is a rookie draft version of CDT.

 

[richoplzbreed]

Rookie Draft: Fred Rodriguez with pick 2, Then Kellaway after that.

 

[Danog]

Is it just the one rookie spot we have available tomorrow?

I swear we should have 2?

 

[Thrillhouse!]

Amazing that Greaves was touted to go top 10 early in the year

Too 10 to not drafted is pretty brutal

Weren’t people on here frothing over Rodriguez earlier in the year? and he went undrafted

Goes to show some people get lost in the hype. Robey the biggest hype show of them all.

 

[Danog]

"An AFL list size can have a maximum of 44 players, including a primary list of 36-38 players and a rookie list that allows for up to two Category B rookies and four to six Category A rookies."

Our AFL list has 38 players. We have 3 cat A rookies and 1 cat B, so we should have 2 picks.

 

[Jozzy]

I swear we should have 2?

I was under the impression we only had one but i don’t have any reasoning to back that up.

 

[Infamy]

I swear we should have 2?

I hope you're right, but I was under the impression that if you've maxed out your senior list, you can only take 4 rookies. (Cat B not included)

 

[Stars align]

3pm

Any athletic ruck prospects we might be looking to bring in?

 

[Ancient Tiger]

Any athletic ruck prospects we might be looking to bring in?

I think we are only going to rookie Kellaway, and we are done. If they have a Cat B rookie somewhere hidden away, they will also unveil him tomorrow, but I doubt that.
