No, we don't need another young KPF. JVR, Jefferson, Turner and the incoming Derksen (plus Fullarton and Kentfield) are plenty. A midfielder with pace and/or good kicking skills is a far greater priority.
It shouldn’t, concussion concerns shouldn’t mean that you now think he is not one of the best in the draft, but it may affect the mock drafts.
and midfielders...

This is the first I’ve heard of concussion issues with Champion. Has he already a number of concussions?
In my opinion this is the perfect opportunity for dees to pick up a young gun mid they can add to a future midfield make up - Windsor, Rivers, maybe McVee, Sparrow, bit of Koltyn??? They need to think about life after Viney (30) Clarry (only 27, hopefully 5 years but ??), Trac (28 but is he gone in 12 months?)
No he hasn't but what I think ROYAL EAGLE meant was that Malakai puts himself about. Not a big fella, so goes low and get's whacked a bit. Sometimes one fears for him in contests.
Dees need 3 picks in the draft and go mid mid mid. Draper/Langford/O’Sullivan options at 5
No. Reid is nowhere near Sidebottom in style or substance. Like Neale but is not physically strong enough to compete. Got pushed aside in 1-1 contests. He’s a pick 11-12 at best. Often handballs to space !!
you just described nat fyfe as a junior. they're 18. they add size.
up and down year, earlier in the year he was looking good albeit low disposal counts, he under performed for the Allies in the Champs and at times for Sandringham, he moves well and can look good at times, but his overall year wasnt great averaging 18.9 disposals as mostly a mid for Sandringham/Allies, biomechanically looks sound, but doesnt win enough of the ball to go in the top 50 imo, his best game standing out rather than being the norm at 29 disposals and 3 goals against the Jets.
ok fair enough mate. My mistake
absolutely seen them play … Vic players in Coates league both live, Coates league app showing the full games and the national championships … whereas SA/WA Players in the championships on AFL video of the games plus videos of guys like Davis through WAFL finals and then in the colts.as long as you base these opinions on seeing them play its fine, but if its based on the terrible journalism that orbits AFL i would be concerned
He is a player that has popped up in the last couple of years as a quality small defender, I think size and lack of regular impact has put me off mentioning him, but he could be a smokey pick up at the draft, if a club is looking for that particular type to fit their system? if you're not a solid top 30-40 by most people's calculations you are in that area of the draft where about 50-80 players fit into 20-30 picks, so it's all based on club opinions and their various tests, combine results, character interviews, what positional needs they have ect, it's very hard to predict late draft as its a science we the public don't have the information for.
