Actually Matt Clarke said it's extremely deep compared to last year in his recent podcast. Claimed that late picks will be of value for to this - which explains why we traded for a future 4th last year.Only issue with the draft is some say it’s not very deep and quite average

Good Lord.lolThe Melbourne bf trade/draft thread is called
the “St Kilda are interested” thread lol
I did hear that MClarke podcast too, with only top talented picks in the first round followed by further rounds of even (not top) talent/picks!...if that makes sense...Actually Matt Clarke said it's extremely deep compared to last year in his recent podcast.

I'd be backing in our recruiting team.....Interesting everyone else saying the opposite hopefully he’s correct
The way our strike rate is with lower picks compared to our higher picks i'd nearly trade our 1st rnd pick for 2 3rd round picks.boring as it seems, and unlike previous years, I think we're in a pretty privileged position in that we don't have any MAJOR list deficiencies that need servicing via trades this year.
IMO, we should focus on continuing to build through the draft... just trust our recruiters to continue doing what they've been doing. it's the best way to get talent to the club in an affordable and sustainable way, without a doubt.

I feel like I hear both every yearActually Matt Clarke said it's extremely deep compared to last year in his recent podcast. Claimed that late picks will be of value for to this - which explains why we traded for a future 4th last year.
I don't think he said that. Last year's was one of the deepest ever, hence we got Ross at 43, Turner at 58 amd Stack at infinity.Actually Matt Clarke said it's extremely deep compared to last year in his recent podcast.

Yeah I'm staggered at our current success rate in Draft picks...if you can consider picking Lennon before Cripps, a successful draft pick rate!The way our strike rate is with lower picks compared to our higher picks i'd nearly trade our 1st rnd pick for 2 3rd round picks.
Most didn't know that Cripps would grow another foot after the draft......Yeah I'm staggered at our current success rate in Draft picks...if you can consider picking Lennon before Cripps, a successful draft pick rate!

My take on what Clarke said regarding the draft this year was that last year they may have had only 60 draftable players on their board but this year they have close to 80. He said the quality of the top end isn't there however. For instance, the first 35 players have lower grades this year than the first 35 from last year etc.
