Spoiler: Draft Central Draft Guide

I'm keen on Blakely too, but I'm not sure he's gettable anymore. He returned to the side with a 23 disposal game and Longmuir spoke glowingly then of his importance to the side going forward and of how he was challenged to go away and learn more about his role and did. Longmuir feels like Blakely is his star student at the moment.

He's gone

 

[ghostdog]

He played five middling games, getting mostly good numbers but butchering the ball, then was dropped for the last month of the season.

Don't mind me. I've been getting shit wrong all over the place recently.

 

[brutus76]

Blakely would be ideal.

Can get his own ball, do a tagging job or shutdown a med. forward if required.

 

[faible]

Can get his own ball

This is a problem, his ball use according to Fremantle supporters is appalling.

He’ll fit right in then

I've watched a bit of Freo (as my brother barracks for them) and he kicks fine IMO.

https://www.ultimatefooty.com.au/players/1637 avg DE of around 74% career to date

This is better than Brayshaw, Cerra, Fyfe, Hill, Mundy and Walters. Acres and Darcy Tucker just shade him.

That's because he's either played half back where Zac Dawson DE was better than Gary Ablett jnr or as an inside midfielder hitting 2m handballs

Would be interesting to look at his KE in games played as a mid

So we should be looking to trade with a team like the bulldogs to improve our draft hand.

Nothing fancy but something like

42 and 60 for 37

Moves us up some spots and gets them more points so they are less in debt next year and we will likely be using those backend picks to match on the academy boys anyway so losing 60 does not hurt much when we have 69 and 70 anyway.

Is that right or should we be looking to gain points at the backend for the boys?

Sounds like Eyre might not even attract a bid, whilst Brand wouldn't be a high bid. Not sure we'll need all that many points to match.

 

[eth-dog]

As far as the later picks go we should probably just do draft night trades to avoid getting caught napping.

Spoke extremely well, ultra professional.

 

[Harlequin Dream]

There might be an opportunity for us with Collingwood and Port Adelaide having players who might receive a bid before their first pick. It would be nice to receive a good offer for our pick.

I can seriously see Geelong circling us and Gold Coast for a pick swap for Tanner Bruhn.

If we get band 1 for daniher (unlikely), 3 first rounders would be a great haul. Try and do something similar to port in 2018.

If we end up with two top 10 picks, surely a Thilthorpe / O'Driscoll double comes into play?

Dont think Thilthorpe lasts to 8, which is what our pick will be after JUH and Campbell bids

No guarantee that Campbell is bid before our pick.

Thilthorpe will be gone before we pick

eDPS lets talk about JAckson Cardillo please

What is stopping people talking about him as being a top 15 prospect? seems like he has a few weapons, what we require as well. Nice enough size at 185cm.

I thought he was unlucky not to get a combine invite especially from his form last year and testing at the start of this year, this was my write up on him before the season started


Jackson Cardillo
186cm 78kg
Forward/Midfielder

Strengths
Speed
Overhead Marking
Clean hands
Forward Craft
Midfield Balance
Composure
Tackling



Queries
Kicking
Production?
Contested game?

• Kicking is the main spot to just tidy up, not bad in the contests but could go a little harder to win own ball at stoppages and use the breakaway speed he knows he has

 

[Sporno 4 Pyros]

Looking at Cal Twoomey’s phantom guide the first 6 live picks are:
McDonald
Hollands
Thilthorpe
Grainger-Barras
Tanner Bruhn
Will Phillips

Any of those would suit our needs of quality midfielder or Key Position player.

 

[eth-dog]

Hopefully Sydney or Gold Coast really want Phillips

The two other guys that intrigue me are Dumsney and Caleb Poulter, any word on those guys?

 

[11kgm]

Looking at Cal Twoomey’s phantom guide the first 6 live picks are:
McDonald Yes Please
Hollands Bigger mid and could add goals
Thilthorpe not keen
Grainger-Barras looks slight
Tanner Bruhn too short
Will Phillips too short

Any of those would suit our needs of quality midfielder or Key Position player.
