Phantom Draft!! Quick 16 people needed!!

🥰 Love BigFooty? Join now for free.

I am going to head home in a few minutes so I might give my two picks now assuming that the people to go don't take them.

Brisbane - Rolfe
Sydney - Guggliotta (sp?)

If one of those guys gets taken put me down for Rohan Bail who I do not expect to be on anyone's radar (20 yr old Qlder).
Where is that Rolfe from??
Is he from Queensland?

Rolfe is an NT guy. I thought he lead the way for them through the middle this year and is probably the best prospect for them this year. Reminds me a bit of Wona last year. Sharples moves very nicely but I have serious concerns about his disposal.

And like Wona he could've gone last year but didn't. I like Rolfe. The thing I've always noticed about him is that he's clean below his knees and maintains a good pace when picking the ball up.
 
From what I've read, I can't see a need for Neville Jetta at the Hawks. Zaharakis would be okay, but it's fairly clear that Hawthorn wants to draft and groom a long-term key prospect for defence. We loaded up on quick midfielders (Cyril Rioli is a long-term midfield prospect, and Brendan Whitecross) last year. I eagerly await our third round pick.

Please also note that Ben Kennedy is available to be drafted father/son by Hawthorn (though I note that father/sons aren't being counted in this phantom). He's reputed to be a potential CHF and got in the best for Sandy last weekend.

How would he get a Game for the Hawks when they have Buddy and Roughy?

Anyone for Taylor Hunt? I rate this cat.

And I'll guarantee that Phil Davis (North Adelaide) wont last last this long in the real thing.

Well I picked Jones from Vic Country who is a CHB and I didnt think that Hawthorn needed another Key Forward with Buddy and Roughead with backup players like Thorpe and Boyle.
 
K.King and A.Cockie are some top WA players yet to be drafted. These were expected to go top 25 earlier in the year and would be great pick ups now.

You Vics are over seeing the enormous talent in WA.

Was looking at picking up King before, but imo he is more of an athlete compared to a footballer, thus why I decided to go against picking him when there were more 'true footballers' available.

Anyone considered/will take James Strauss in there last few picks, Ive watched him in 2 APS games as well as the Telstra Dome against WA. Personally i think that he is a 3rd selection. Hes played mostly on the HBF for Metro.
What do u think?/ if you know about him

well said but athletic abillity is what Franklin, Natunai, Riewoldt were. They will and are all stars.

athletic abillity helps every footballer who has it in AFL. eg: Ablett and Judd are athletically the best over 20 or 40 metres thats an athletic trait.

King did dominate the 16's and was AIS

They also had football smarts as well though, not something that I think King has plenty of.
 
He gets the footy enough and he must have footy smarts to dominate state 16's that much.

Natunai does not and i dare say that Brennan probably didnt either.

From watching a fair bit of Naitanui, from the champs last year, a game this year at the Dome and some highlight packages, I think that he does have footy smarts, even though he has plenty of knockers. He just needs to top up some of his positioning around contests and the like and I don't think that's much of a worry, should be sorted out when he gets to an AFL club.

Btw, I don't think averaging 19 disposals and winning 26% of them in a contest is dominating Dunny.
