circled in the infamous Irving/Sheedy picture.

It’s Dodoro up to he’s usual tricks.

 

[eth-dog]

Cherny has us taking Bruhn, Reid and Henry

 

[andleanback]

Maybe it's a double red herring. We're picking one of the three.

Also don't understand the logic of bidding on Campbell at the third of our picks

Yeah we should bid on him with our 1st

AFL draft 2020: First round predictions

It's been a year like no other, and so too is it a draft like no other. This year's national draft will be held remotely, run out of the AFL's review centre at headquarters.

www.theage.com.au

Cherny has us taking Bruhn, Reid and Henry.

 

[eth-dog]

The Hun's is not using the Fox Sports one.

I was just giving Balmer's Phantom since he asked after that one as well.

 

[citizen-erased]

I'd be happy with that. If we want Cook, then we can trade pick 8 for Collingwood's pick 16 and future first. If he's off the board, then we can select O'Driscoll.

Also, how many times have we leaked things?

Sounds like we want 14 (assuming to still get Henry on top of Bruhn + Reid/Cox) + F1.

We do need a new game though. i think most are on to us.

 

[The Prosecutor]

Cherny has us taking Bruhn, Reid and Henry

Though he's seemingly just copying Cal, especially with bidding on Campbell with pick 8 for some reason.

 

[Keystone agony]

Pretty safe to say its 3 of

Perkins
Reid
Cox
Bruhn
Henry
Cook

Just need this draft to happen now im feeling dizzy, talked in serious circles for a while

 

[eth-dog]

A couple of differences. Macrae not McInness at 11, Perkins instead of Powell for North, Laurie instead of Cox for GWS

 

[doug85]

Balmer states it’s not out of the realms of possibility that Thilthorpe slides to us

 

[eth-dog]

Thilthorpe, Perkins, Bruhn is something I'd be okay with

 

[citizen-erased]

I personally think trading pick 10 for 17 + 20 or 10 for F1 and pick 17/20 i think is dream stuff

We would need to give something significant back i feel

There is every chance F1 becomes far better than pick 10 this year on its own even though theyre losing that pick next year its an asset that they can do what the dogs did with it this year

The points margin is only 500+ out and thats what the pies are worried about both this year and next

I could be way off but i just dont see pick 10 getting any 2 of F1,17,20

Id be super annoyed if the dons were on the other end doing that and im aure many on here would be aswell that are suggesting it

yeah, but Ned Guy

 

[Harlequin Dream]

I am fine with Cal's trio. Really like Balmer's trio of Perkins, Cox, Bruhn.

Not keen on Cook. He missed too many easy kicks in the matches I watched of him and he didn't stand up in the finals.

 

[andleanback]

Thilthorpe, Perkins, Bruhn is something I'd be okay with

Thilthorpe Perkins cox would be elite

 

[eth-dog]

Thilthorpe Perkins cox would be elite

I don't think we need 2x talls in the top 10

 

[citizen-erased]

I don't think we need 2x talls in the top 10

one would be a back, the other a forward
Thilthorpe - Eyre - Draper - Cox - Brand
spine of potential!

 

[andleanback]

I don't think we need 2x talls in the top 10

So should hawthorn not have got roughy then buddy? Elite talls don’t come along that often. Might aswell grab them while they are there. Also getting a mid plus we got Caldwell. Or Gold Coast getting luko then b king. Nothing wrong with grabbing 2 talls who play at different ends of the ground.

i dont know what im going to do after tomorrow night until Rd1. :S

Supercoach team and keeper league draft i guess

I just don't think it happens.

Yeah I don’t think Thilthorpe gets there anyway if he does, we shouldn’t change our plan of getting a tall defender with skills. Brand is lock down and we shouldnt change our draft strategy in the top 10 because we can get him late, he’s not at the same level as cox or Reid.

I like taking Cox or Reid because they can perceivably play either end. Same with Brand and Eyre but to a lesser extent.

Speaking of Lukosius, does he seem like a good comparison to Cox? Gold Coast occasionally use him as second key defender but from what I saw they liked to use him on the third tall and as their distributor from the back half. He’s only 5cm smaller than Cox and Cox probably has a better endurance than him but a slightly worse kick

Slightly worse kick but Cox is elite on both feet, just luko is probably one of the best kicks in the last 10 years. Cox will be more developed body wise coming into the system than luko was and JK has to put on a lot more size to turn into the player that he was touted as.

 

[Vander18]

my question would be could Cox not be what we want from Henry?
at 200cm, with that endurance, elite disposal and pace, he's surely a good marking option too.

Bruhn, Reid & Cox?

I really like the look of Henry. Prefer him to Perkins actually (based on extensive viewing of highlight clips on YouTube).

 

[Dons4Life]

Happy with the draft central mock.
It seems in all the mocks coming out that Bruhn is attached to us in everyone. Am becoming more comfortable with that selection as long as we take a taller mid also (perkins). The other selection my preference is Cox but happy with a Reid also
