Damn that sucks to hear, hopefully we get a fringe player training out of their skins soon so we can overreact and call them our next flag bearer.

We drafted Latrelle Pickett and Lachlan Carmichael in the only draft that matters.

I did hear we were linked to Pickett on DDF, so that's a real thing is it?

Bailey Banfield redemption arc is upon us

Seems to be right in our range now.

I know Walls will always say whoever we draft with our first pick is best available but if he looks at needs slightly I think we'll look at Pickett.

In reality I think Walls probably crosses all talls off the board and goes with best available of what's left. If he goes slightly needs based that is.

 

[Tundrawolf]

I know a lot on here like Pickett, but I just can’t see it with our first pick, think there are better options both for our first pick and later in the draft or rookie draft.

Last draft I wanted Berry as we needed a forward but Walls the hack wanted Murphy Reid.

In Walls we trust.

Yep, take best player available then play them in the position of greatest need (or least contest for spots)

I personally don't love the choice, but I just want a good small forward who provides pressure and can kick goals accurately.

There are very few of them in this draft in the top 30. I think he is 1 of 2. (That are not tied to other clubs )

Geez just stab me in my heart.

Ditto. I went rage texting to my cousin ranting that we drafted another midfielder when we needed a small forward. Walls 1 - Saul 0

I still get sent a screenshot of my little groupchat rant when we picked Serong over Sam Flanders

We still need a small forward and a fat side winger.

Got a strong feeling that Walls will bring in a great player with our first pick that won’t be what we need.

 

[malpaso]

I hope we don't draft a young small forward when there is a better overall player available (I doubt there is a Murphy in this draft at our pick). To cover small forward on our list in that case I would try again to get a mature age player to really back up Switta's role (shifty, tackling, pressure).

We really should be adding both even if the young small forward isn't drafted at pick 20.

The Switta back up probably comes via our first rookie pick or the SSP.

With three rookie spots I reckon we'll draft at least one rookie and not going purely with SSP train ons.

 

[2big2strom]

Nope, hope you had a nice break, been very boring around here.

speak for yourself mate! been pumping around here - we have had the clear winner of 2025 Melt of the Year (Snuffaluphagus right here in this very thread, even if it was justified) sewed up with 1 month still left in the year, Mean Girls Saga in the AFLW thread, a chaotic mock draft, intellectual book (discussion) banning AND no one has even complained about Bailey Banfield* in that whole month!


*JUst kidding, it's still a daily occurrence

I have a feeling we will take Noah Higgins(?)-Hargreaves imho.

From this article: "There’s a view that Fremantle, depending on which players are still on the board, could launch several bids late on night one, which could see the first round stretch out into the late 20s."

Yes. YES!

When was the last time we bid on an oppo linked player in the 1st round? I know pick 20 is right at the end, but I personally don’t think we bid on anyone as Walls will be too excited entering the name of the player that slid to our pick.

It’s in our best interest to bid as many times as possible.

Ensures we get Whan and improve our later pick.

Depending on the previous bids and points left we should bid on the Swans,Essendon, Blues, Suns, and West Coast academy players.

 

[Tonga Bob]

Freo with four live draft picks according to this. Some will be taken by rookie elevations I guess

 

[FreoBraddles]

Confirmation Sharp and Draper upgraded.

We'll pass the last two.

Our rookies have already been upgraded.

Port or GWS could bid on Luke Ryda or Toby Whan after we’ve passed and they probably get them.

 

[Purple Suit]

Port or GWS could bid on Luke Ryda or Toby Whan after we’ve passed and they probably get them.

Is that how it works? Surely if you still have a list spot available you can bring out pick 134 if someone try's to pull a sneaky. I thought we like to run 36-6 but could always go 37-5 or 38-4 if forced to. Maybe if they go one after another we end up passing on the 2nd.

 

[apuchar]

Only if we don't want them on the main list. You can pass and use later picks.
