Draft Expert PMBangers 2025 Draft Thread

And the eagles would just say no? First rounders have 3 year contracts these days.

The likely scenario is that Eagles and Carlton come to some form of agreement that sees Eagles get 9 and Dean not bid on until at least Richmond’s pick 5.

Blues just wait for 3 years then. He would inevitably request a trade and pick 2 is wasted.

I'd take Sharp 101 times out of 100 ahead of Smillie and I liked Smillie.

Me too. The first bit at least.

So would I and I'm not a super Dyson Sharp fan like you either.

LeRay was in all honesty and oversight for that tier 4 area, but Onley I've been pretty open about not liking his disposal or defensive work anywhere near enough to draft him, i'm not totally convinced by his work in the contest phase either to view him as a genuine first possession winner at AFL Level, and he actively hates playing other roles

Thanks mate.

That’s interesting r.e Onley not being keen to play other roles. Always wondered why he wasn’t at least trialled at CHB, his marking is neat and has decent intial speed that would suit him in defence.

Are you a relative of his?

Apparently Annable is sliding to 8 to 10 range massive if true absolute bargain according to ESPN

That would be yet another absolute farce

Id be disappointed if he lasted to 8*

*Unless Dean gets a bid from Richmond or WC

Thoughts on Sam Allen out of the Chargers if you got to watch much of him pre-ACL?

Really why's that?

Do the maths. Essendon have pick 5 live.

what's that got to do with Annabel

 

[eth-dog]

what's that got to do with Annabel

Jesus. I want Essendon to bid on him with our first pick if he's still there. Not that hard to grasp.

Didn't see enough and wasn't overly convinced when watching footage back, not confident enough to say yes or no

I hate that every year this thread just becomes draft general discussion

Okay don’t beat around a bush and say that next time

that would be quite the winfall.

I would think that Richmond should (will) bid on him. If he was available he would be perfect for them.

The 2 Gold coast kids and Annable would be natural selections (if in the open draft) for Richmond, I hope they bid accordingly.

 

[SaintsofSteel]

Apart from CDT, McCarthy & Emmett which other ruckman might get taken in this years draft?

 

[Resigned]

What do you think of the Sturt Prospect Jett Dahlitz? I thought he did alright in the U18 champs and his disposal efficiency in SANFL U18s is 98%. Is there a major knock on his game that holds him back? I've noticed a lot of his highlights online are of uncontested kicking.

should the eagles decide to pick Dean knowing full well his/family connection with Carlton that would be tantamount to starting an all-out !

Every good father-son gets bid on.

if that's correct recruiters need to lift their game ... it's unprofessional and immature.

lol by that logic clubs should just let him fall to the rookie draft because of who his dad is. Shouldn’t be getting these players for free. I hope Dean is bid on in the first 5 and I hope Cody Walker is bid on at 1 next year
