Draft Day is here

Unlike last year when the excitement of adding No.1 pick Harley Reid to our list was palpable (and also near certain), this draft is uncertain and viewed with equal parts excitement and trepidation

We go into the first night with pick 12, which is expected to slide to 15 after academy and Father Son selections and a lot of guesswork on who we’ll take. Or even if we actually use that pick with rumours circulating that we might trade up or back

Night two we have pick 26 (subject to change) along with a gaggle of late picks. Again, there’s the possibility of trading into the draft with another pick using one of our later future picks and even less certainty on who we might pick

The one near guarantee is that NGA product, Malakai Champion, will be an Eagle at some point over the next couple of days

So sit back and watch to see how the draft unfolds whilst praying we don’t do something stupid

"Oh great, just watch Fremantle go ahead and bid on champion now!"

"Oh great, watch these cats campaigners guaranteed to bid on Champion"

"Called it, here comes Sydney bidding on Champion everybody"



Literally heard that ad nauseam from every piss pants since Freo's first selection at 17 all the way through this entire draft 😩

Far out, if you'd told me yesterday morning that we'd end up with Bo Allan, Jobe Shanahan, Tom Gross, and Hamish Davis, I'd be rapt.

If you told me we ended up with that haul I would’ve thought we’d done something silly with our future picks.

Clark and Pyke have mostly redeemed themselves, just hope they don’t make early commitments to players again, lol.

WCE_phil Would love to know if we were keen on Boxshall at 46 or 48 had Saints not traded in. If so, would have it been Gross and Boxshall?
 
wow we've got some real talent in this draft!
we really gotta find a way to keep Burgiel on the list
