It was a toss up between Stone and Bowey at my last pick.

There’s still one of eDPS favourites still on board by my reckoning.
Yep. I know who you're talking about and they are also on my list.

Pick 51: Port Adelaide – Zac Dumesny
Port select Zac Dumesny

187 / 80 / South Adelaide

Zac is a no frills utility capable of playing all over the park. This is a steal for me as i've got him 20th on my ratings list. Strong and well built already and with senior experience, he is capable of slotting into the team in year 1 if needed. What I like about him is the fact that he can be deployed all over the place and can be expected to do a good job. Whether thats coming off a back flank, playing as a lead up forward or on a wing, he's played good footy in each.

I like him most on a wing, pushing into the midfield in the future. He's shown he can be a high disposal winning player at different levels. He's skills are good and he has the ability to run all day.

Very happy I got this pick.

Pick 52: Richmond – Josh Treacy
write up tomorrow
Richmond - Josh Treacy - Bendigo
194cms 94 kg
other considerations but not the right picks for us as we need a developing agile fwd were,
Luke Pedlar, Patrick Walker, Sam Collins, Fraser Elliot. I was hoping for Liam Kolar
and also considered a Josh Eyre bid.

How did I upset you?
It's a good thing for you. Means I wanted him. Was the last tall I was overly buoyant about. By my count there's four left I'd draft, and in the real thing two of them are attached so likely won't land at a club other than their own.
 
Pick 53: West Coast – Luke Pedlar
West Coast: Pick # 125795254444 ( well feels like it anyway )

Luke Pedlar. Midfielder / Forward. 183 cm 80 kg. Glenelg.

Help for a midfield thats short on depth, in a team that doesn't win enough contested possession.

Been described as an Inside Bull, with a playing style in the Joel Selwood Ollie Wines style, a player who unflinchingly puts his head over the ball at all times.

Sounds almost to good to be true, so why has he lasted so late in the draft.

Simple answer is that all players selected at this point have question marks over them. They may have a deficiency or a some other question mark. Pedlar is no exception and his question mark is injuries. That have firstly prevented him from being on the Park is a season that has been simultaneously compromised by no Championships.

Like all of his cohort Pedlar has been restricted from showing his craft due to Covid and the fact that he also had an injury to his shoulder early in the season and then a minor knee injury late in the season which kept him out of the School Grand Final.

Pedlar has some positional flexibility to his skill set as whilst he is a very good inside mid he also can play as a small forward that hits the scoreboard, plus his pressure in either position is elite. He may well start his career at AFL as a small forward and then work his way into the midfield rotations.

Pedlar also has leadership qualities as he was School Captain of Prince Alfred College.

Being from Hastings a couple of hours South Of Adelaide he has already lived away from home, so an inter state move should not be a big obstacle.

It’s no secret that after the starting midfield, West Coast run very thin on any sort of quality depth to its midfield.
So the addition of a contested beast to add to the midfield rotations makes a lot of sense and the fact that Pedlar has positional versatility is a bonus.

Pretty happy to have been able to pick up a genuine midfielder so late in the draft.

Knightmare Saints are up.

Pick 54: Richmond – Maurice Rioli Jr (bid matched)
Straight match
Richmond - Maurice Rioli Jnr
173cms 73 kgs
NT - Oakleigh Chargers
STRENGTHS:

  • Speed
  • Agility
  • Tackling
  • Defensive pressure
  • Goal sense
IMPROVEMENTS:

  • Sustained impact/consistency
PRESEASON TESTING HIGHLIGHTS:

Speed (20m)
– 2.98 seconds
Agility – 8.11 seconds
Endurance (Yo-yo) – 20.5

Excited to bring this young guy in as a Richmond Father-Son selection.
Rioli is the hungriest tackler with intent in the entire draft. He will hunt them down and ferociously tackle to hurt anywhere on the ground but mainly inside 50 which gives any team he is in great opportunities to lock the ball deep inside 50 and/or have shots on goal.
He is a pressure style player and loves a goal. As it says above he does lack 4 quarter consistency but a very high ceiling given his traits and abilities that have been on display in limited exposure.
He has extraordinary skills and in game pace to burn. Still has a lot to learn and is a very raw talent, and it may take a preseason or 2 to harden him up and teach him a team style game he needs to play but is one that will flourish in an elite full time professional environment.
Welcome to Richmond young man.

Knightmare
