A quote from Draft expert Emma Quayle today on Facebook, flies in the face of those with their views this is a particularly weak draft...

"Seems the sort of thing Essendon and Carlton should be trying. Gold Coast is always open to that sort of thing. To me the first two rounds in this draft are starting to look pretty good."

He's a Gold coast academy kid from Southport.

His parents should be shot!

I like Bonner.

Ok thanks. Was watching the fox footy draft combine and saw he ran top 10 3k so had a look. They said for pick 9 it may be the Tasmanian lad forget his name now. Half back utility.

You're thinking of hibberd ....reckon he's more in mix for pick 13 or even if we can trade up our 28 and Kerridge for pick 20 . His testing was phenomenal . 15.7 beep , won kicking test etc he's 19 and injury prone , I wouldn't take him until pick 20ish if we can get another pick there. Good player

Bicks boy Darcy tucker tested well 2.98 20m , 15.3 beep and 10.19 in 3km which makes him one of best runners in draft , strangely his agility didn't test that well

Difference between Bonner and Tucker? Liked Bonner with both sides on vision, bit taller, Homegrown. Is Tucker hat much better?

Bonner is taller +190cm , both not great in contested situations ....tucker more mature as a footballer , football IQ etc but Bonner a late bloomer

Tucker has him for running power /speed

Both good though !!

 

[Elite Crow]

Noble when asked about Carlisle as a trade said he's not on our radar as we after speed. You would have to think we will be drafting speed. Love it.

Snelling for me.

Horsham's nearly homegrown...

I like McKay with one of the first rounders. Need to bank a quality long term key forward to develop and groom to take over from Tex and Jenkins. These guys take a while to develop so start planning and recruiting now!

 

[Pugsley]

Didymus Blanket? Is a name? really?

Did you miss my blanket. No I did not.

 

[Pugsley]

Where does Mason Redman sit in the scheme of things?

Anyone with red in their name has to be good [emoji6]

Not a massive fan. Hard worker, good IQ, overrated kick, lacks a bit of composure, weak over the ball, not a linebreaker but not a prolific ball winner. The best mid in the side so gets the ball but in a better side bigger bodies with better reads of the tap win inside ball and line breakers receive it. He's neither, really quite weak over the ball and easily moved.

There's a lot to like and he's got fans, but to me he's scrappy.

any chance of francis sliding??

Knightmare just posted if he were to update his draft today he would have us taking Darcy Tucker, Harry McKay, Luke Partington and Aidyn Johnson if we were to utilise all 4 picks as they stand.

 

[FantasticShirt]

His parents should be shot!

It's a brilliant name. He's from Badu Island in Torres Strait.

 

[deeztreez]

Hey thanks guys. Couldn't sleep so spent the last few hours reading through the thread and all other info I can find and catching up on latest fancys. Some good info and interesting opinions.
I'm keen on H McKay, Burton and Hippard atm and will follow closely..
Cheers

Perhaps I should have asked his heritage first? Do you know the background? (Ie how both names came about, meaning etc.)?

 

[Jeffcrowe]

Like the first 2 , not keen on partington but like Johnson ...good haul overall

Prefer to upgrade our pick 32 to carltons 20 by sending kerridge there and landing Mitch hibberd , Ryan Burton or jade Gresham at 20

Agree he looks scrappy and looks like he lacks class but need to give credit in that he always seems to get the job done ....kicks goals and bobs up with possessions consistently

I reckon we are a better than good chance to take Milera with pick 9. I also hope we pick up Weideman with a later pick so we can bring back the "WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED" chant.

We will regret it if we don't take milera.

If exactly the class and skills that we need.
Please don't pick up an inside midfielder or defenders with this pick.

Well Didymus is the alternate name of one of the 12 apostles. And blanket means blanket.

In short:

Didymus = Thomas
Blanket = Blanket

That concludes our intensive 3 week course.

A tad extreme [emoji6]

Perhaps lynched [emoji4]
