List Mgmt. 2025 AFL Draft - The Final Countdown

[Tiger_Of_Old]

The better younger left footed version of Grjl with more midfield craft:

Hope we Tank.

I remember Shifter Sheehan calling Cotchin an elite kick on both feet before his draft.

In Context he thinks every kid is his own.

 

[_RT_]

Reading a bit more information about the kids in the draft I do wonder if we are considering taking both Robey and Sharp.

Having a look at our current group of players aged 24 or younger I can see how going down this path would make sense.

Adding those 2 to Lalor Smillie & McAuliffe would give us a strong core of 5 big 187cm plus contested ball mids to build around, while we have the likes of Hotton Campbell Ralphsmith Clarke Retschko Green Alger(sub 3 20m) Smith(sub 3 20) & even McAuliffe(sub 3 20m) can provide the speed & spread from the contest that we seemed to lack through 2025.

We still have the mature bodies of Taranto Hopper & Ross around that means we don't need to throw those young guys to the wolves but can instead take our time to develop them properly

[Rubber Hips]

Duursma....Robey...Sharp....CDT...
These are arguably the top 4 in the draft
Now I know the people obsessed with speed will disagree about Sharp ...but the guy couldn't have done any more in the last 2 years to prosecute his case ..
To me he's Dunkley to our team ...and that's fine by me

So ...2 of these guys will be available no matter what west coast do

Pick the two that are left

I’d be very happy with any 2 from CDT Robey Sharp

Duuursma gives me Diarrhoea vibes

RT on the Robey train

 

[lizard man]

I didnt say he wasn't. I said he can't kick in general play and will become a whipping boy for it. Won't be a Tiger so wont matter.

I thought I was being kind when I left out his 31% DE game too

Could also get Lindsay to help balance out Cummings bad kicking ….. win win situation

RT on the Robey train

Always been on the train, just hiding in the corner quietly watching

 

[tigerfan1961]

Robey & Taylor

Sharp already gone then I assume?

Nah if Sharps gone I think we will lock CDT on the computer before Sharp has received his jumper.

 

[lizard man]

You’ll be thanking me when I help us bring in a great draft haul

 

[_RT_]

Taranto, Hopper & Prestia copped it all year and it wasn't because they're soft...





I'll have to dig up another to find him hit a target by foot.

As I said has some good attributes, can't kick for shit.

 

[tigerfan1961]

So we overlook Sharp then? Big mistake imo

 

[_RT_]

Damn there is always cameras. Orange really made Calcium Man stand out though

 

[tigs2010]

Yeah feels like we will overlook him

 

[tigs2010]

He's an impressive guy tigerfan1961

We don’t need 5. Who has 5? No one.

"Le opposition player".

 

[lizard man]

Phillipou doesn’t lack confidence ….. but I wonder if it’s all just an act? Would really love to grill him with certain psychological questions to pick his brain and see if I can expose any weaknesses about him

Raygun?

 

[Rocco sifreddi]

Hope these mock drafts are wrong , cant find 1 of them having us take Robey, Sharp

Something like this?

We currently have more than 5 when you add Taranto Hopper & Ross to Lalor Smillie & McAuliffe. With Taranto & Hopper both in their late 20s I'm just raising the possibility that we may look at bringing in these 2 to give us that group of 5-6 to build around for 3-4 years down the track.

To be honest I don't think we do it, and I'm still keen on bringing in Grlj & Cumming to add spread from the contest

Cumming don’t spread.
