Spoiler: Draft Central Draft Guide

 

[Red Black and Blue]

If those 3 picks are still the same on draft night which 3 draftees do you suggest should be drafted?

I’d start off bidding on every one of JUH, Campbell, Jones and McInnes in that order. All of them suit us.

Perkins, O’Driscoll and then hopefully try to trade down at 8. Those first two have attributes to be superstars.

After that I’d be happy with any of Chapman, Reid, Henry, Cox, Bruhn, Macrae, Poulter and if we could get two of them or one and future first I’d be stoked

 

[Steve94]

Personally I'd be looking to split pick 6/7/8 to Collingwood for 16 and a future first. Then would use 6 + 16 for pick 2.

We get an extra next year for a first this year whilst also moving up the draft order. 3 firsts this year sounds great but given list sizes it'll be hard to get 3 firsts as well as brand and Eyre in

If we can't trade up id trade one of our picks out for future picks.

 

[Bjchan13]

I know he's only 1 persons opinion but Twomey doesn't have o'driscoll in his top 25. Are we really going there with a top 10 pick?

 

[Yoda_]

For those of you playing at home;

pick 6
pick 7
pick 8
pick 44
pick 77
pick 85
pick 87

Trade pick 8 for Collingwood pick 16 and a future 1st. Then go after O'Driscoll with 16.

pick 6

pick 44

pick 85
pick 87

AFL.com have it as:

Essendon

6, 7, 8, 44, 67, 74, 85, 87

 

[The Prosecutor]

Would seriously look at exploring 6 & 7 for pick 2 and 8 & future first for 3.

 

[WindyHillZephyr]

I would trade 6,7 and 8 directly to North for 2,11 and 2021 2nd. A small loss of points for us but more focused on our needs.

 

[citizen-erased]

Would seriously look at exploring 6 & 7 for pick 2 and 8 & future first for 3.

Swans would lose 8 on a Campbell bid.

 

[Yoda_]

Would seriously look at exploring 6 & 7 for pick 2 and 8 & future first for 3.

I'd suggest we don't go to draft night with all three of 6, 7 & 8. Future picks will certainly come into play.

 

[The Prosecutor]

I would trade 6,7 and 8 directly to North for 2,11 and 2021 2nd. A small loss of points for us but more focused on our needs.

Do that, then try and turn 11 into Collingwood's future first.

 

[andleanback]

Giants and pies will both be looking to trade into the top 7-8

 

[TheWeapon]

Any decent inside mid > 187cm and the best KPF available. 3rd pick might split depending on talent available

 

[11kgm]

We could be in trouble with Cody Brand/Eyre

But take 3 kids in the top 10

Reid Perkinks Cox

 

[Harlequin Dream]

pick 6 Perkins
pick 7 O'Driscoll
pick 8 Poulter
pick 44 used to match (Brand/Eyre)
pick 77 used to match (Brand/Eyre)
pick 85 Duval
pick 87 Fahey-Sparks

3 mids with the size to play inside the square and the skillset to play outside the square.

Our academy talls.

2 mature-age defenders who are rapidly improving.

 

[citizen-erased]

Assuming JUH, McDonald, Hollands, Thilthorpe, DBG, Phillips & Campbell are off the board.

6. Reid - line up a full back for the future
7. O'Driscoll - We need size, and from the reports can play inside mid, wing & HBF.
8. Perkins - Torn between him and Cox. the write ups on Perkins and his talent feel too good to pass up

Reid + Brand + Draper + Eyre + Wright.-> spine
Mids: Heppell (28), Shiel (27), Merrett (25), Parish (23), McGrath (22), Caldwell (20), O'Driscoll (18), Perkins (18)
Wings: Langford (24), Perkins (18), O'Driscoll (18)

2021 line up
Redman Hooker Francis
Ridley Hurley Zaka
Merrett Shiel Langford
Parish Stewart Tippa
Jones Wright Stringer
Draper Heppell McGrath
Smith Caldwell O'Driscoll Perkins

good, not great. the HBF would look better had McKenna not left.
2 of Brand, Reid or Zerk need to come off.

 

[Steve94]

6 - O'Driscoll
7 - Cox
8 - Perkins

These are the picks for me

If we can’t trade up for McDonald I could see is taking the punt on Kaine Baldwin early. Jack Darling

Or Callow no ACL issues

 

[Yoda_]

I’d bid on McGinness with one of our picks.

Exactly the sort of player we could use.

And Jones because **** Port

Baldwin is a better talent than Callow imo

Baldwin is a better talent than Callow imo

No doubt without ACLS i would say he would be up with Ugle-Hagan and McDonald

just added Wright, have Eyre. took Jones last year.
I'd be prioritising mids. Maybe a KPD.
O'Driscoll & Perkins at a minimum,
Maybe split, or go Cox or Reid.

not sure a KPF is that critical right now.
Our midfield needs a lot of work.
