I think metro win by about 3 or 4 goals. Cox can handle Ugle-Hagan. Metro's tall forwards is their weakness but they make up by having so many dangerous medium types in Perkins, Ford, Laurie, Cardillo, Stone even throw in Sonsie who would most likely play through there as well.
Bit interested to see that you’ve got brandan walker in your top 50 but no sign of Joel western another one of fremantles NGA boys
His size will hold him back a bit, as other go past him. He’s just outside my top 50, but will get taken by freo regardless so it doesn’t really matter. Brandon walker will be a big riser in my updates rankings, after watching more vision on him I’ve underrated how good he is. He has the ability to be a serious weapon at afl level.
He has tools but never has the ball. Will count against him I think.
Wasn’t exactly playing for a top tier side though
Should help his cause. Ball is always in defense if your team is toilet. Docherty was AA playing for BB's Carlton.
Any chance you can expand on what he said about Raak? He’s pretty highly rated by the draft followers on our board as well.
He didn’t go into detail just said bulldogs are lucky this draft with obviously JUH and Cody raak who he rated potential top 20. Was surprising for me because I watched a few games jets games live last year ( and a praccy this year) and I’d have Cody in the 40-60 range at best, doesn’t have the best agility* or speed and is undersized at 191/192 for a key.
Beat me to it
Nobody going to mention the player he reckons will go top 15? He didn’t name drop but I know EXACTLY who he is talking about as I saw the exact same game
I’m guessing he was talking about Max Heath.
No, he didn’t play
Cox and Reid are two that have currently down as tall utilities and could be turned into anything to fill a need by the potential club that picks them up. Personally i'd have both settled down as Key backs. Cox played at both ends (kicked 4 against bendigo) in his underage year while Reid was used down back and in the ruck. Both read the play well, move great, are good by foot and have good composure with ball in hand. Both boys are currently wafer thin but once they fill out they could become dominate players in the afl system, and both have some of the biggest potential upside in this years draft crop. Cox also has elite endurance (low 6 minutes for 2km) and could even play on a wing at AFL level while he fills out into a KPD role, who ever gets him will get an absolute gem. Both boys should go in the first round anywhere between 5-20.
Any chance to slide to 2nd round of the draft?
