Maybe, think will be Young and GreenDo GWS take Mcasey?
is there any player in this draft that looks set to hit the ground running with the same quality as walsh? asking for that same idiot friend..........
Nobody in my uneducated opinion.is there any player in this draft that looks set to hit the ground running with the same quality as walsh? asking for that same idiot friend..........
asking for that same idiot friend..........
excuse me?The one in the mirror....?
Matt Rowell is the obvious one, pundits are saying he can have an even bigger impact than Walsh but I can't see that happening personally. Should be good from the get go though.is there any player in this draft that looks set to hit the ground running with the same quality as walsh? asking for that same idiot friend..........
I feel we are already too tall with Harry, Charlie, Gov, SOS up forward and Cripps, Setters, Kennedy and even Dow through the middle.
IMO we are short one Prestia/Neale/Treloar type smaller accumulator and that to me is Robertson, who is seemingly ready made and hard as nails. Stephens also works but is rising by the day.
If not, then make the most of Geelong’s situation and split the picks heavily in our favour. Plenty of pace in the 15-25 group.
I wouldn't say we have no hope. Everyone assumes that Adelaide will pick the croweater, but they very rarely do.cheers, g-man - I too nominated stephens early but it sems we have no chance............
That position could be filled by a Fisher or Setterfield (i know Setters is bigger) or even Gibbo with a full preseason can’t write off internal growth so as much as I would like a Stephens if we miss out there’s still other options imo.
excuse me?
Also props to a team that with that pick 4 moved down two spots to get another first rounder thrown in......Incidentally.... Props to any team that downgraded from pick 4 to 9 with an extra player thrown in....
I wouldn't call it depth, so much as being satisfied with good role players who may elevate their game.I agree with this statement, and some may even slip beyond that, but you still need to be able to read what clubs are going to do and be well positioned to get the players you've identified. We just don't have the picks this year to try to prioritise getting the perfect players to slot right into our best 22, as it now stands. We should approach it as gathering depth to build a stronger club via competition for spots in the side.
Levi might be gone at the end of next year, and MK should play for another couple of seasons.We still have too many holes in our side to be using a single figure pick on a project ruckman. You do that when your side is pretty settled, we still need more players who can be best 22 in the next 2 years
I only feel mildly dudded by the Marchbank and Plowman deals, but the latter was part of the deal that turned Henderson into McKay. Could have just as easily wound up with Plowman AND Tomlinson for little more.I love Adelaide. But I'm annoyed that GWS and Gold Coast always want to extract everything from us in trades.
If he wants to play mid he'd want to put on some weight fast. Looking at his frame I'm skeptical personally.just had a look at some Will Day highlights, looks pretty good. Does anyone know if he’s projected to be a midfielder down the track?
Gibbo is a good shout, always the one I forget. Stephens/Robertson probably have a higher ceiling though. Don’t think Fisher has the contested game over 120 mins, he may develop that yet. SPS similar and better suited to an outside role. Setterfield is a different type of mid again and it will be interesting to see where he ends up.
Walsh would clearly excel in the Neale/Prestia role but I loved him on the wing this season. Stocker is the other one who can step up with a few preseasons behind him. Can never have enough good mids.
That’s easily fixed. He will be a jet.Nobody in my uneducated opinion.
But if I was picking a player who'll have the biggest impact next season I'd pick Stephens. Most would say Rowell, but he doesn't have the endurance base that Walsh had.
Honestly I don’t think there’s a snow flakes chance in hell of us trading a future first.Likely 2 top 10 picks for 12, 16 & 18 in a supposedly week draft - I think we would want something more.
What? Pendles? What? What are you watching?No chance.
Will be long gone. No one will let the next Pendlebury slide unless they need a specific player, and Freo will not risk him.
They are going for him and then Henry in that order.
