Indicative Draft Order After Round 13

 

[Barnzy]

He has another 7 years of top quality football

Even if you think that he's not coming here and we won't try to get him

Why not ?
If he waits another year and a free agent he is the perfect player for Richmond to target with 7 years $10 mil deal
This kid is a fecking GUN and the exact type of player we need in the midfield

 

[lizard man]

Caleb Serong keep a watch on him.

Okay, I’m watching him right now … what would you like to know?

Floggo Twomey already said this one is not getting to FA. Clubs lining up to trade for him.

Contending clubs ie not us.

Butters, Gulden, Serong and Reid all coming to us.

Blair is a genius.

Yeah we just chewing the fat here passing time

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Dogs.

Dogs would need a low pick.
We could get involved but it will break BF.
Pick 2 >>>Port>>>Butters>>>Dogs>>>>Davidson >>>Richmond.

 

[Mr Magic]

FOS

I would rather pick up FOS than Butters

 

[Coach_Required]

I would rather pick up FOS than Butters

I liked what I saw from FOS v Eagles on the weekend, considering he is a 1st year player he showed more maturity than most of his teammates.

From North's board, haven't been able to find the actual article online:

DRAFT CONCERNS

Club recruiters fear that this year’s national draft – and the Victorian draft pool – is one of the weakest in memory in a year where Richmond and Essendon have multiple first round picks.

Vic Metro was smashed in their first Under 18 championships game by South Australia, while Vic Country was also beaten by WA.

Multiple recruiters told the Herald Sun they were worried by the lack of elite talent in the Victorian pool as they continue to push the AFL to boost funding in the Coates League.

New football performance boss Greg Swann will have control of the talent pathways when he takes over and clubs will urge him to invest in Victorian football.

They have now been shut out of northern markets given academies and while last year’s draft was a blockbuster the open pool of players continues to shrink.

Clubs continue to snap up players who have come through established pathways because one of their parents was born overseas, with former SANFL star Greg Mellor’s son Jesse academy-linked to Geelong.

Victorian clubs have made submissions to the AFL and made urgent requests to former football boss Laura Kane to prioritise investment in the Coates League given the modest talent on show.

Seems strange given the massive amount of obvious Victorian talent just a small matter of 12 months ago.

You get weaker drafts and stronger drafts. 2016 for example was a really weak draft for elite players. But one year later 2017 has proven exceptionally strong and deep. From memory 2019 also a very strong draft.

We look to have inserted our snouts fully into the trough in the right season. And we have a couple of very strong picks this year right at the pointy end if a handful players emerge as potentially elite.

2018 was decent at the top and then hit a cliff a pick or so before us from memory

2016 hit a cliff at pick 1 but found a precipice at pick 29 fortunately.

u want butter but not reid ?

 

[THE_GUN]

Yes

Check their stats and come back to me

 

[Groupie_]

Yes

Check their stats and come back to me

tim mitchell had beter stats than dusty

 

[Barnzy]

Yes

Check their stats and come back to me

Reid's stats are better than Butters second year stats though. Although that's the covid year so give him a couple more touches a game and still about the same.

Not if you factor in the free's against and the DE
Plus Butters has actually got to the elite level which Reid is yet to do

KFC ?

 

[poppa pump]

The huge unfairness has clubs like gcs by 2025 draft with over 10 academy players on its list-most high picks plus gun Victorian kids plus a gun Melbourne nga-and this skyscraper 1 sided advantage can't continue.

 

[copthat]

We can back ourselves all we like fact is we wont get out of the bottom 4 next year and would be idiots to think we can just 2 years after going full blown rebuild.

You dont trade out a pick in the top 4 by backing yourself this early thats just such a NorF's thing to do

I wouldn't be trading our F1 but if we couldn't climb out of the bottom four next year there would be alarm bells for me.

Dimma got us to 8 wins in 2011 with spuds like Nahas, Miller, McGuane, Farmer, Thursfield, Helbig, Post, Graham all playing regular games with Hislop, Webberley and Nason playing a handful as 'depth'.

Sam Mitchell got to 7 wins in year 2. Paul Roos got to 7 wins in year 2. Brendan McCartney 8 wins (before they moved to Beveridge and got a flag 2 years later).

Yze even has the added benefit of an extra year under his belt and a smattering of premiership players leading the way.

Dimma had prime Deledio, Jack in year 5 coming off a Coleman and Cotch in year 4 (a Brownlow a year later) and Dusty who kicked over 30 goals in year 2. Even if Lalor = Dusty we don't have a Jack, Cotch or Lids equivalent with equivalent experience.

Hawks came bottom 4.
Dees bottom 6
Dogs avoided bottom 4 by % only.

We could probably win 7 next year but the way the league is going that's going to be bottom 4.

2016 was the last time a team avoided bottom 4 with 7 wins.

reckon next year is gonna be another struggle year, just need to get more games into the 2024 draft class

also won't make finals the year after but should be able to take over a few of the sides currently above us on the ladder

Agreed.

Will only take a Nank injury to win a spoon if we don't bring someone else in lol. Imagine Ryan as ruck all year
