Midfielders drafted in the top 10 in 2021, 22

[KissKiss]

I think he looks like he rushes his kicks and seems to kick a bit over his shoulder rather than run and kick directly moving forward. I think he is a great player, but I just see some really dynamic kids out there. Ashcroft wont be the best from that draft IMO. But, we'll see over the next 3 or 4 years I suppose.

His kicking isnt a strength. He can get under the ball a bit, although the lions game plan definitely pushing kicking quickly first.

But Ashcrofts hands would be right up there in the best in the comp already. He is just incredibly clean in picking it up and dishing it off - kinda Neale like. Its not as flashy and sometimes you need to see the replay to really appreciate the work those inside mids do.

 

[VinnieB]

Yep,
Very early in the piece. How many times have we seen a kid dominate and then struggle when more work gets put into them or they get a significant injury. Going from support player to midfield leader is also a challenge for some.

Haven't seen many second year players get the attention Daicos has received. Yet, still picking up 25+ disposals and effective. The fact we have such high standards on him now and what is a fantastic game for most players may actually be considered 'average' for Daicos is a testament to how good this kid is.

He is not a 'support' player and is instrumental in getting the team going. And he kicks goals.
The kid is so professional on and off the ground that he will only get better.

 

[The Dougster]

Some of the things JHF does for a 19 year old is just absurd. Outstanding talent. Wouldn’t trade him for anyone in the comp

Yeah. He’s a gun but he’s no Georgie Wardlaw

 

[The Dougster]

Sheezels ceiling is peak Jake Lloyd

No ceiling for our Harry. Can play back, mid & forward line with damaging ease. He’ll kick a couple of bags soon and showcase how good he is.

 

[Frank Thring]

Nah, has more levels to reach and he is already way better than Ginbey. Like I said Ginbey will be a solid role player while Sheezel will be a match winner

It's too early to make definitive statements at this point. While I believe that Sheezel has the potential to be great, it's important to remember that Ginbey may also reach that level or higher in due time. Every player has a unique development rate.

To illustrate this point, using examples from my own team I can recall Luke Dunstan's impressive performance of 30 touches and 2 goals in only his second game, but unfortunately, he didn't continue to progress. On the flip side, Brendan Goddard had a rough start for the first 3.5 seasons, before finally hitting his stride.

 

[fnerd]

Pick 9 in the draft.

Except he didn’t actually cost us 9 …

But yeah a Carlton supporter talking up draft busts …. How’s paddy Dow basically cost you p3 and p6 -(you had to use on Cerra when you could’ve drafted him originally, now that’s some A class recruiting right there

Honourable mentions to O brien and SPS too

 

[fnerd]

Well he’s no Liam Henry that’s for sure

Except Henry didn’t cost us 9 and we really didn’t miss out on anyone else …. Chesser over Johnson on the other hand…

Yeah Johnson’s been tearing it up

Freo victim mentality.

He’s a seagull mate, how could he play mid when he can’t get a contested disposal?

Sheezel would s**t his pants doing what Ginbey does.

scratching his ass, I wouldn’t be as inclined to dish out the lol’s as old mate fnerd

And if I did feel the urge I wouldn’t be using a 12 disposal Matthew Johnson as my 1 wood.

 

[The Dougster]

He’s a seagull mate, how could he play mid when he can’t get a contested disposal?

Sheezel would s**t his pants doing what Ginbey does.

Ginbey would s**t his pants if he got caught in the Warlord’s path

 

[Shueygod]

Ginbey would s**t his pants if he got caught in the Warlord’s path

Cmon mate, Ginbey would bury Wardlaw.

 

[Frank Thring]

all good you can have Ginbey and we'll keep Sheezel.

 

[Milanista28]

Horney is a big sexy boi

 

[TheUnicorn]

I guess I'm supposed to say Tsatas? Since everyone else is just saying

1.Daicos
2. The kid who plays for my team.

 

[Nutjob]

I list a simple fact with no other comment and you get all offended.

Freo victim mentality.

He probably thought the comment was strange coming from a Carlton supporter who butcher high picks for fun. Freo didnt even use that pick to get him lol

I know if my club passed up Ben King and Connor Rozee for Rory Lobb, some kid called Sam Sturt and a couple of seasons worth of Jesse Hogan scratching his ass, I wouldn’t be as inclined to dish out the lol’s as old mate fnerd

Nah I’ll dish whatever I want out

Now back to hoping your club hasn’t seriously erred by splitting p2 which could of been either bond fide stars Wardlaw and sheezel

While he hasnt played seniors yet, i think he's going to be very good. Liked what I saw at junior level. Looks classy.

Liam Henry was pick 9 in the draft.

I didn’t say anything else.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

McKenzie - watch and see with this kid, looks a little unassuming to be in this conversation but he's got some bulk and kicks it very well

He’s composed, has a great kick and finds time and space.
Is going to be a superb player.

 

[bh90210fan]

We’re more than happy with Ginbey and Hewett thanks for your concern.

 

[Ads734]

Nah, has more levels to reach and he is already way better than Ginbey. Like I said Ginbey will be a solid role player while Sheezel will be a match winner

His peak is a more versatile Robbie Grey. His true forward craft is hidden by playing him at half back.

 

[Sphynx]

physically gifted yet can't run out 2 quarters? That's a bit of a contradiction. He's a good young player with promise but his skills are deplorable at this early stage. As a neutral, I'd take Sheezel over Wardlaw and it's not close.

Deplorable skills on show again.
