Draft Review 2025 AFL Draft General Discussion

[Membling]

The big 3 in Lachlan Carmichael, Noah Chamberlain and Max King are potentials.

Carmichael most likely to go late first as it currnetly stands.

Max King is a hugely athletic tall been played across forward and mid - like him in middle

Chamberlain been played as a KPF but been swung onto wing.

Max King has chance to bolt, but both King and Chamberlain second/third rounders currently

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Another Max King?

Yes indeed.

Does anyone knows how to watch the u17s match?

Is it just me that or does that Sloane team look quite better on paper

 

[Jack Richards]

How is this draft looking (2025) compared to the 2024 crop?

I thought so too, but other people think otherwise.

The prospect of Dyson Sharp and Riley Onley in the same midfield is quite scary.

Good amount of talent on each side. Should be a good game.

 

[Jen2310]

Probably weaker.
The list from this game is the best we have at this point.

 

[Davo-27]

Looks like approx 15 recognisable talents on Heppell team and about 13 on the Sloane team, but Dyson and Onley will make Sloanes midfield stronger potentially, should be a good even game.

 

[Jack Richards]

Probably weaker.

Cheers.

 

[EricCartman]

Has anyone heard of Bailey Dean Latanis before this list came out? Seems to have come out of nowhere.

It's more about how many of these kids are academy kids or father son kids.

It's not just the Northern academies either. Half of the WA kids are NGA or father son to the two WA clubs.

McGuane is tied to Collingwood.

I think it's 18 kids across the two teams tied to clubs.

Jeepers. Good luck other clubs. Might as well trade out of the draft

 

[GC2015]

Interested to see how Zeke 'The Freak' Uwland goes tomorrow and if he really is a legitimate contender for the number 1 pick next year. He's the only U18 AA from this year's national championships that's competing in this game so expectations will be high. I know he played well in a state game where the Queensland U17s team defeated Vic Metro's U17s team in early August and I suspect a lot of those Victorians will also be playing in this Futures game.

 

[DTLSchulzy16]

Both teams* butchering shots everywhere. Seems a bit windy, but making it look like they are playing at Williamstown

 

[EricCartman]

Jack Dalton with the first goal for team Sloane.
Wes Walley first goal for team Heppel.

 

[Honeyboy Wilson]

Rodriguez is beyond exciting. Just moves so well and looks so composed.

 

[EricCartman]

Jeez Greeves had 12 disposals, 9 for Addinsal. Uwland for team Sloane and Burton for Heppell are both providing run and penetration off half back.

 

[Haggas]

Dyson Sharp very quiet for his standards

 

[DTLSchulzy16]

He’s front row to the Addinsall show

 

[Haggas]

Addinsall playing very good.
Sharp being played out of position

 

[Honeyboy Wilson]

Not concerned about Sharp, when it's been his turn to go he's done well. I think they're trying to give others some shine.

 

[Haggas]

Yeah I agree. Sharp and Uwland up forward

 

[Haggas]

Wish they would show player stats not just team stats
