Great draft mate. Bartlett yew! Carey and Davies would be awsome as well!

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Good to see the Port drafter having so much faith in our existing tall forward options.

 

[ArdentEagle]

Good to see the Port drafter having so much faith in our existing tall forward options.

Yeah I noticed that too but I think from that drafter is was a best available type scenario. That's what I love about having lots of different people doing it. Everyone has a different tactic/draft policy

 

[Knife Wrench]

I really hope that doesn't happen for Geelong.

 

[ArdentEagle]

I really hope that doesn't happen for Geelong.

I didn't think it was that bad. I'd highly doubt it anyway mate but if it did I suppose the faith should still be with your recruiting department eh

 

[Nater]

yuckies!

 

[Groucho]

Where's Ball? And Joel McDonald's only nominated for the PSD.

 

[WattsGoodForYou]

Melbourne have picks 50 and 66 aswell.

 

[Richo83]

I wouldn't mind Ball but Richmond have made no sign of taking him, and Ball has shown no indication he wants to go there. I mean in some ways it makes sense, Hardwick would love the toughness Ball provides and would teach some of our younger players a thing or two about fitness, commitment and skill. But I can't see it happening, I see Ball going in the PSD wherever he goes IMO. Other than that, it's solid.

 

[NiceCunnington]

Yuck.

 

[ArdentEagle]

Where's Ball? And Joel McDonald's only nominated for the PSD.

Like I said in the disclaimer at the start this was started a while ago so selections may be out a bit as some of it was guess work at that stage

 

[ArdentEagle]

Yuck.

I can't speak for the reasoning behind the other drafters selections but I'm the one that was North Melbourne's drafter so I can give you the reasons behind my selections:


I had to go the best available with my 1st pick in Cunnington. I'm almost certain he'll be a very good AFL player and he's my favourite available this draft. I'd love for the Eagles get him somehow

My 2nd pick I've gone for talent vs risk in Griffiths but I feel he's a big need for the Roos too.

3rd selection in Taylor a huge risk but I couldn't pass him up at that stage

4th was Craig. He as all the physical attributes to be an FB at AFL level. By that I mean he is very strong, has a good leap off either foot and could possibly be moulded in to a FB or FF as well as the obvious as a part time ruck in the big league - anything from here on will be more speculative.

5th - Joel McDonald. A need and a guaranteed quality AFL player as well as experience for the back half. I was wrapped to get him at this stage - *now realised he only nominated for the PSD back when the selections were made I didn't

6th - Gerrick Weedon. Anything at this stage is speculative but you watch his videos if you haven't seen him live and tell me why I wouldn't pick him at this stage. I personally think he'll go a fair bit earlier and end up as a very handy player

Just the way the cards fell. I wasn't the Tigers drafter.

 

[jetta2davey]

Would be very, very happy if it turned out like that from an Essendon point of view.

 

[Axel.]

Callum Bartlett Alex Carey

 

[Spluff]

Horrid.

Well, they got Martin right.

 

[danger_to_walker]

Talia, Gawn, Bollenhagen, hell no! That is close to the worst outcome we could have from this draft

 

[Angus McFuttock]

EFH phanton draft = Linda Blair in The Exorcist.

 

[picks1and2]

why would melb pass @ 34

 

[Vader]

why would melb pass @ 34

So you could have a selection in the PSD. Note that this draft uses the order as of October 31st, which was subsequently revised after List Lodgement 2 (which took into account the later delistings - which included Meesen & Newton).
