Sorry mate, It looks like it has had a rough time
Your predictions too please

I predict I will continue to get even more pessimistic about this draft class, only to regain optimism when the season is over

There is a lot of afl level role players that every team needs in this class, in that way it goes deep. I can’t make it to the first game anymore (kid has rehearsals) but I might see you at the second game

Why isn’t Ashcroft playing ? He was clearly VM best player last week

If the weather holds off it'll be a good day for it

Wiz lol.

Windsor clean, The Wiz just being the wiz.

Bottom age kids could only play a max of 2 games across the carnival

 

[Davo-27]

My highlight so far was Murphy Reid's clean pick up, handball to Johnston who weighted it perfectly to Watson in the goal square

 

[weltschmerz]

Nick F'in Watson.

 

[Mofra]

Watson just taking the piss now. Smothering as well as kicking goals at will

 

[tiltraise]

Nice smother and hands from Wiz.

 

[Davo-27]

Nick Watson putting on a show, that Weatherill goal from long range near the boundary was nice, WA getting beaten convincingly atm 65-17?

Tiers?
Allies
VM and VC
WA and SA

Curtin very Bont-like.

 

[ROYAL EAGLE]

Curtin very Bont-like.

Not really at all doesnt have his acceleration
Dan is a CHB and thats where he will play at AFL level

 

[ROYAL EAGLE]

Pretty uninspiring game, talent in this game not standing out like i wanted

 

[Mofra]

Smart by Caddy to put the peroxide in the hair, he certainly catches the eye.
Tholstrup in the middle seems the main man there when he goes in. Hall & Curtain more highly rated but I really like Tholstrup's game

 

[Davo-27]

Caleb Windsor has been good, he has risen a bit off the back of his champs performances

Koen Sanchez kicking 3 goals so far has been good

Caddy kicked 2, Logan Morris has been a good target for VM

Will Brown has been busy as has Clay Hall

Dan Curtin looks good, but has been playing most games as midfielder/defender so it's been a bit weird

VM aren't as strong as in previous years, WA seems to not be overly deep with talent this year imo.

A lot of missed targets, Watson aside

Bont was in the bottom 10% for acceleration at draft camp. He's actually pretty slow to get going, but his game sense means he's moving when he gets the ball so it's hard to spot
