List Mgmt. MSD 2025 Prospects and Discussion Thread.

[krakouers]

On a day when the Geelong defence was under siege for much of the game and many of the Hawks forwards were running rampant, MSD prospect Charlie McCartin was one of few Cats players to leave with his reputation not just intact but enhanced. Looking like a copy of his brother Tom, he rarely gave his direct matchup anything and regularly came off his man to try and help out third up. His intercept marking was a feature and his disposal coming out of defence was tidy and constructive.

Cmon then Honorary Roo, who would you pick with 2x picks?

 

[The Nostradamus]

Mid season draft fancy Michael Sellwood did his best work in this game through the middle two quarters where he was extremely influential as the WAFL built a big lead over their SANFL rivals. Sellwood has taken more marks than anyone in the WAFL this year and watching him play you can see why as his best attributes show up in that stat. He positions himself assertively and comes off his man to impact third up in the air, taking intercept marks or disrupting with spoils, and he works extremely hard in transition to find space and offer himself as an outlet for his teammates.

Has Sellwood nominated 6months or 18months?

Has Sellwood nominated 6months or 18months?

AFL site doesn't have an * next to his name, so 6 months I would assume.

 

[chubbspeterson]

Strong hands for a mid sized defender. I'd be really happy with him if the Eagles take McCarthy at 1.

McCarthy probably a bit more dynamic and penetration on his kicking, but Selwood looks a prospect.

I think Tom Evans is a good option for teams with some patience that are after a small rebounding defender, but I feel like you guys have enough of that type already. McCartin feels like a good shout, rock solid, could step straight into an AFL team and is a position of need for you (as far as I'm aware).

Small forward?

 

[Groucho]

What about Raso? I really don’t want to miss out on another Massimo

 

[giantroo]

noobermensch You have any videos on Zac Banch?

It's probably the shit one. Like the shitter Bergman we have and McKay we had.

 

[noobermensch]

Small forward?

The only one I've actually watched that's been mentioned is Raso. He's fine. Its the MSD at the end of the day so you're unlikely to draft a superstar.

Not yet, if he seems to be a likely draftee I'll get something out before the draft hits.

Unless you're... We all know the rest.

El Nour is another who's been discussed in draft circles for a number of years, is back on the MSD radar this year and seems destined to get a crack at AFL footy eventually. After a shaky start to this game Mutaz showed his fine attributes for a versatile medium defender. He brings athleticism and intensity in his defensive actions and rebounding dash to break lines with the ball.

Shaky, yeah pretty much. Not sure we need someone scrubbing an unpressured 20 metre inboard

 

[Passmore]

He's not that bad. I mean who does he have in front of him? Probably the worst functioning forward line in the game.

Best player for our needs - we’ve got plenty

 

[LB2Snake]

There's a bit in the HS about Williamson today. Interesting read.

No chance he will be at North after TT issues. Zero.

 

[McKuursma]

No chance he will be at North after TT issues. Zero.

We scoped the chance already and made the call then. A strong administration wouldn't walk that back

 

[The Talent Scout]

At this point it might be easier to just name the players who aren't on Essendon's radar?

St Kilda like this!

 

[The Talent Scout]

Yearly reminder we never draft the guy everyone wants.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand the second yearly reminder, even though we have two picks we may /may not use them, depends on who we rate/don't rate out of the 70 odd players at the mid-season draft, this rating + the National draft at the end of the year and the trade period and free agency is going to be mighty interesting, it will have been talked over and plans on who we are keen on and what position we are looking at, so much more to come into it.

It's so sad how many of our draftees in the last ten years this could describe. Many guys from the ND and RD like Tom McKenzie and Oscar Junker.
