Anyone with a SANFL digital pass the North vs Redlegs game featuring Isaac Keeler and Max Michalanney is worth a look, both playing extremely well up to half time....On Keeler forget getting him unless we take him with our 1st pick.

I'm open to taking him with our first pick.

Could Thilthorpe/Keeler be our Gawn/Jackson?

I'm not overly enthused by Keeler. He is athletic for his size but he looks beefier than he should be.
I would question whether he has the mobility to become an A grade forward or ruck based on that.

You serious?

You're questioning Keeler's mobility?

Mobility/agility is one of his many real weapons...the Paddy Ryder comparisons are pretty much on the money IMO

The only thing he lacks is consistency of effort and from where I'm sitting that has improved measurably this season especially of late.

Any chance he makes it to our 2nd pick? Or do you think he is now a certainty to go first round?

Yes, I am questioning his mobility and I know he is your love child. He looks about five to ten kilos overweight from the few times I've seen his this year. Probably doesn't affect him in underage footy or SANFL footy, there are many of these types.
At AFL level I could see it being a problem unless a fitness department can fix it.
Ryder never looked like Keeler in my recollection.

There's some nice talls in this draft and he has to be the most prodigiously talented of the bunch IMO.

Previously there have be questions over his consistency of effort but looking at him of late I'd say that's likely been mentioned to him by AFL recruiters in their feedback because he has improved incrementally in that regard.

What rubbish I've always questioned his consistency of effort but never his raw talent base.

Then you're recollections need an update.

His performances against the better class players at the Nationals have been excellent.

I think it would be a great result for us if we take a gun mid with our first, and then somehow manage to get Keeler with our 2nd pick. Would probably require us to upgrade it to a pick in the mid teens to get a shot at him.

The Brisbane first rounder could get us Keeler, that pick is on the market with the Ashcroft kid, though does mean they won't be interested in future picks.

I'm guilty of pumping up the SA prospects most years and this year is no different 🙃. If we can land Phillipou, Keeler and Michalanney that sounds pretty good.

There will be one of the SA talls available at our 2nd pick, IMO all of Keeler, Barnett, Lemmey, Foster, Verrall and Scully look to have draftable talent.

Raw athletic Ruck Will Verrall is the sleeper with his interrupted preseason (groins) and missing games this season but the last couple of weels he has started to hit top form and really lit it up.

Today vs Glenelg 14 disposals, 10 kicks 4 handballs 4 Marks (3 contested) 2 tackles 36 HO 6 clearances 4 i50's 2 r50's

Last week 17 disposals 13 kicks 4 handballs 5 marks (3 contested) 1 tackle 21HO 5 clearances 4 i50's 1 r50 3 goals

Lions going to need a pick for Jaspa Fletcher F/S too, very good today in the Allies win over WA

That result would fill 3 glaring holes we have in our current side

I hope you send this out to all recruitment teams.

I don't know either way, but happy to have the choice.

Sorry for the double post.

But we had a huge Ryder fan in this board.

I'm saying this because I don't remember and hopefully they bare still here
 
At this stage when is our second pick? Thought it wasn’t until late. Matt Crouch compensation maybe?

Crouch is contracted for 2023 - can't leave as a FA, so no FA compensation picks involved.

He’s got excleptional mobility , it’s his competitiveness that has been questioned

He’s turning in some consistent performances to answer those questions at nationals level where he’s prob the most consistent tall forward across all states at moment and also playing pretty wel in reserves by sounds

It’s quite possible he’s improved and got fitter since you watched him as his form prior was patchy

I don’t reckon he is one for our first pick but should get taken 10-20 comfortably IMO

Watching him today. Looks overweight.
