True, the Eagles did go tall last year but Mackenzie looks like more of a defensive option and Schofield, whilst tall, shapes as a possible midfielder due to his excellent endurance. Mitch Brown is the only pure forward.

Whilst Hansen and Lynch aren't old, Mitch Brown is the only guy behind them at this stage and think West Coast would prioritise get another tall forward option.

Also, West Caost strike me as fairly well off for running defenders with Shannon Hurn, Brett Jones, Mark Nicoski, Adam Selwood, Will Schofield, Beau Waters and David Wirrpanda all more than capable.

Simpson also has the ability to ruck and could be a possible back up for Seaby and Cox.

I dont see Simpson doing much rucking at AFL level. I dont think he will be tall enough.

True, but reports have said that he, at the very least, looks capable as a junior. Stranger things have happened in regard to player growth.

It may be minor but it is another selling point when there's the possibility that a player could add something to a position other than just the one he's been selected for.

I know what you are getting at but at 194cm he has to grow a fair bit . Hey like you said stranger things have happened :)
 
McEvoy is a ruckman who is being played forward but in the AFL he projects as a ruckman. Chris Knights spent his entite Eastern career playing inside 50 when he always projected as a midfielder, why? Because Tac coaches are also trying to get into the AFL system and wins rather than development are a priority for some. Robert Hyde was one coach who was completely selfless in developing Calder players who were always tried in a variety of different postions. If by some miracle McEvoy is there when the Pies pick they won't hesitate to pull the trigger and use him as a ruckman.

Alright, that's a different take on it, I still see more as a forward who can pinch-hit in the ruck.

I can imagine the commentary now...

And there's the bounce. And ... no-one's actually going for the ball. It looks like Brock McLean's brought a pack of cards.

Travis Johnston is doing his nails... Fev is having a wank in the forward pocket...


***** LOL!!

Why is this guy number 5
- Levi Greenwood, 184 cm. VANILLA x1000. For those who don't know the term vanilla- commonly used for midfielders- slow plain player with nothing exceptional, just capable on all areas. Somewhat overrated? As a recruiter, you would be worried if a guy that weighs 90 kg's as an 18 yer old was not playing senior footy. Nonetheless some people like him. Again capable in alot of areas- not outstanding though. Can see him slipping as a 3rd-4th rounder to no pick at all. DC very important for him.

Maybe wishful thinking

That describes a bigger version of Luke Ball, Brett Kirk, Lenny Hayes, Kane Cornes, Michael Braun, Jimmy Bartel and many other great players. Admittedly all of them have great endurance, spectacular for Cornes, Braun and Kirk, but they are all "vanilla" from that description. Nothing wrong with being a rock solid consistent player.

1 kruzer
2 Cotchin
3 Morton

However i woodnt b suprised if Mcenvoy or Henderson slip in there as the need for KPP is very high amongst other clubs.

It's quite surprising he's been so awful when having shots at goals this year then...bar his goal vs the hawks in the final.

I think Staker may be a tad more developed than Brown. Jaymie Graham is another who could be used forward as he was recently in the WAFL.

The priority for West Coast has to be a ruckman.

Ebert will go much, much higher. Also, while he has been talked up and had a great championships, I think that Palmer doesn't have the polish and upside to go top 3.

True that, what were you thinking putting Ebert that high? And i wouldnt be surprised if Geelong take Scott Selwood with there first pick for him to play with his brother.
