Competitions Essendon Board Mock Draft

[MightyDons4]

Interesting. I wasn't going to take him there.

Will Setterfield.

You're up again.

Damn haha. I was 100% certain you would and needed Logue so that I could complete GC's key defensive trio.

 

[eDPS]

The third player I really rate is still there haha.

Think I'll be passing on a player that I'd pick with every team but Eagles. Might need longer than I thought to choose haha

No, I would have if Setterfield, Ainsworth or a third weren't there but eh.

I think I know who you mean. Surprised Freo didn't take him honestly.

Fair enough, your loss .

If your 'third' is who I think it is, all I can say is good luck on him last to pick 20.

Jack Scrimshaw

Takes the game on a bit with his run, moves well through traffic and has good disposal. Basically North need speed and he's best fit at this pick.

Oh he won't. I've got somebody else in mind for that pick.

Eagles select Jy Simpkin

Team: Murray Bushrangers
Height: 182
Weight: 72
DOB: 5/3/98

TAC Games: 1
AVG Disposals : 18
Goals: 4

Player Traits: Jack Steven, Zach Merrett
Position: Forward/Midfield

Bio: Jy is a lightning quick forward who can play wing and midfield. He has excellent skills and a hunger to give his best every time he is out there. A quality kid who was crueled by injury and would be a top 10 certainty if not for the injury.

Jy has incredible pace and he uses it in every situation. Whether that's carrying the footy, chasing a player down, hitting a pack for a crumb or running to support or receive. He has clean skills and his kicking is both accurate and long. He can hunt players down his pressure is fantastic he doesn't give up a chase(Zach Merrett)

He hasn't shown too much in the midfield but when he does he plays similar to Jack Steven where he can win the footy on the inside and outside despite his size and will use his speed in every situation.

A lack of midfield time and injury are what will hold him back from being a top 10 pick. His hands could be cleaner at times sometimes going to quick for his own good. He is still very light and might need a few seasons before he is a regular senior player.

Jy is a ripper with speed, skill and a good attitude he will become a favorite among supporters for whoever picks him up

Harry Perryman
POS: Midfielder/half-forward, Ht 184cm, Wt 75kg, DOB 19/12/98
From Collingullie-GP/GWS Academy/NSW-ACT

Natural Footballer who the Crows plan on playing in the midfield, adding to there midfield depth which is the biggest need.

[eDPS]

Get your 2nd prize TheFrenchCut

 

[TheFrenchCut]

Port Adelaide shall take Daniel Venables.

Vindicater I believe it's your turn now.

 

[eth-dog]

Damn, there's one big slider that I expect to go top 10 on draft night

 

[Vindicater]

With the #15 pick GWS select Tim English.

In reality this pick is reserved for Will Setterfield.

GWS are solid everywhere so have the option of taking a reach here. They are still quite reliant on Shane Mumford at the ruck position and he is not getting younger. Tim English provides them the unique opportunity of copying the Bulldogs option of running two forward/rucks in the coming years and should form a good combination with Lobb once Mumford retires/drops off.

 

[eDPS]

Red Black and Blue intrigued to see where you go here

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Brisbane select Jarrod Berry.

No pretty sure eth-dog has the next pick, surely you will go for some outside class for the swans perhaps Witherden?

Ah sorry, misread as Skipper shouldn't have picked after me. All good. As you were!

Nope. The need for a key defender is greater so I'll be taking Harrison Macreadie. I have him as a top 10 prospect despite his Champs so to have him at 19 is great.

foj1 is up
