Player Watch Reef McInnes

[Jelly Bean]

The Media is out to get someone to Bid on Reef Early as Possible

I don't reckon the recruiters pay too much mind to the Herald Sun Dave.

They obviously spend far more time lurking on BF to form their views.

Some Talk that Reef might get a top 10 Bid from Essendon

So could Collingwood pass on him with a Bid that High?

 

[Jen2310]

where did this linkage even come from? lol

This may be a ploy to get us to make a deal or something. But I highly doubt this will even turn out to be true. I'd imagine talls would be their first priority. Cox/Reid AA slider from the top 5. They would more likely to bid on Campbell than Reef. Even Lachie Jones.

 

[upnsmoke]

Hang on, so Reef is likely not to fall to the Pies pick(s)?

This guy is a future stud, hence why I was hoping the spotlight isnt on him... but now the media is talking about him??
Please dont tell me Pies will not be able to pick him...

Posted in the Draft Board but There always been talk that Essendon and Dodrio could do that.

Depend IF we move to Pick 9 or not as IF a Bid Came we would know who is Available or not

They will have their list and should stick to it

Cal Twomey has good info and is usually based on info he gets from clubs as well as player managers
in his latest rankings he has Reef as #19 with 5 academy kids prior to him so making reef his 14th placed player

GWS , Crows , Bombers and North with their 2nd pick are all threats and for crows and GWS there is added benefit that if Pies match then it takes away 1 pick prior to their other multiple picks. But DoDo wouldnt surprise me if he placed a bit on Reef

Firstly, he’s at #20, not 19, so even if we take out the 5 academy selections, he’s got him at 15, which is after our first pick. Now if he’s rating him as the 15th best kid, with all his “industry contacts”, I’m not sure why we’d be worrying about a bid in the top 10, given there’s so much talent that clubs are indicating they rate ahead of him. Also, your maths teacher needs to be fired. If we match a bid with our first pick it doesn’t affect the pick order of later picks at all.

4kgs in the last few months alone. Up to 86kg for a 17 year old.
Stevo was 75kg

7kgs gained - from the horses mouth. in a segment on the news a few weeks where Cox was interviewed, Apparently his dad is ex AFL, and has had the kid on a weights program during COVID.

By bidding and if the Pies match that takes away 1 live pick prior to their other picks that fall after the pies pick.
My maths teacher send his regards

 

[Lip Gallagher]

Surely we get the (parents named him Reef) discount, who the **** names their kid Reef? What's wrong with good ole fashioned names like Jett and Ace?

Parents who were likely smoking the devils lettuce. No thanks for me. Must be some serious issues.

Try again. You’ll get it eventually.

 

[legendstatus]

Depending on clubs needs, he may go early if the club with multiple picks go for a need instead of best players

193 defender with the fastest 20 min time (albeit wind assisted) & a potential big mid, will spark interest - you’re kidding if clubs don’t have him on the whiteboard with their 2nd or 3rd pick in the first round

Two different strategies in play - as I mentioned a few days back, Dons seriously considering him with their 3rd pick.

There are worse names. I hung out with an American guy in Cambodia named Corner Stone. Some parents seem to think as laterally as possible when coming up for a name for their kids. Jet and Ace put a lot of fresh to be fast and the best.

 

[regpies]

Cant believe the continual negative slant on all things Collingwood.

How is it negative? It’s fact, he was quick and his endurance was terrible.

 

[regpies]

I can believe it - it was obvious in the days leading up to this that the Pies were in the gunsight. A premeditated and deliberate slash and burn campaign is going on and far too many tanty merchants are buying it.

So all these negative stories are just beat up? They don’t have to beat up any story, some of the embarrassing stuff we’ve done the last few weeks don’t need any extra mayo on them. They wrote themselves.

No, it’s the meedyas fault. It always is.

His name shouldn't pose any barriers

We get him if we want him (e.g. it is our decision). It just depends on whether we want to match whatever bid comes.

So, yes, the pies will be able to pick him.

Beats sharing a name with 1/30 people like Tim, Jack etc.

I'm glad I don't have a common name, nothing like Reef though!

They sound like they might be musicians

There will be no barrier to his greatness.

Give them a good slap from me (the parents not the kids).
