We Drafted Dan Rioli in the top 10 didn't we? Not sure why we wouldn't potentially draft another HBF in the top 10, if he is best available & fills a potential need?

Of course we did very well with N. Broad at 50 or 60 something, but I'm not sure how often you get a player of his quality etc at that level??
No player is guarenteed no matter where they are drafted, it's not an exact science at this stage. So once again because they have more data & exposure to these young footballers, I'll back our recruiters....

i doubt that very much

smokescreen

Potentially... I think our recruiting team is & has done a great job in keeping us & others guessing. I tip my hat to them...🤠

Rioli was 15 from memory.

It's certainly not a complete picture for sure...
 
Mate give him a fair chance. Watch his composure, slickness and football iq. This kid can be anything.

Absolutely, how often do we see players drafted then not played in the position they played as juniors?

He was pick 15, and not drafted as a HBF

Ok my bad, guess it also depends on the strength of that draft & player types available, as well as where we were developmentally?

I 100% agree. No way we pass on Robey of he is there, but IF West Coast take Duursma and Sharp, they both will come hard for one of our picks to take either Robey or CDT. I doubt we trade unless we get another first back.
West Coast taking Sharp is a possibility but I reckon its a very slim one. Otherwise they would trade pick 2 for Ess pick 5 and a later pick take Sharp at 5 after we take Robey at 3 and Taylor/Grlj.

Blair will get such a chub he will have to walk away from his whiteboard and sit down if WC take Sharp and leave CDT for us.

Ok, I did also make the point that players don't always end up where they were drafted as 18 yr olds.

tbf the legend noobermensch uploads all their involvement in the individual games whether good or bad and only does an actual "highlight" video at the end of year highlighting their individual skills from all the games throughout the year
