Cal Twomey had him at 18 as well.Yeah, the more I read and see on him the more I actually like.
Knightmare had him 22nd in the his first phantom and 18th in the 2nd. Few others had him around 20-25.
So definitely talent wise it's not a reach. I think people were just desperately set on a mid here after a KPP and so was I. Fingers crossed a couple slip to our next pick to round out this draft.
Very good player TS...if TB is half as good as him then we have a player!They said that on Fox Footy.

Nah…..too youngCats would of taken him
same here. i'll back in the recruiters. would have liked hobbs.
Not just horse but the entire swans room looked deflated , I have no doubt that Geelong would have taken him with 1 of their picks at 22/23 and Tom Brown was always in the 16-25 range and would not have lasted until our 20's selections.If you have access to watch the replay of last nights Fox coverage is a LOL moment.
When they switch to the swans room Horse is on the laptop looking mighty pee'd while the recruiting team look like they've just been handed a sh*te sandwich without the bread by the Marvel catering team.
You'd want to hope we take some damn inside midfielders with these picks. Getting two defenders seems downright bizzare to me when there was some really talented mids available.I’m thinking they’re confident we can get our targets with 26-28 picks

pressure is certainly on RCD, Ross and Dow next season.On the other hand not much point drafting Martyn. Dow. Ross. Rcd. Etc. Unless you give them a chance?
Whilst we all want good inside mids its not really the end of the world as we are drafting now for 3 years time and people keep mentioning but Cotchin prestia edwards etc will be gone.You'd want to hope we take some damn inside midfielders with these picks.

As it is with every position. But to be fair they it hasn't been normal development for them. Little VFL, stars studded midfield to break into, in one week out the next (which is normal for young players). The ones feeling the pressure should also be the under-performing regulars, as we have a good group of young mids/utilities about to hit their straps.pressure is certainly on RCD, Ross and Dow next season.

not at all bizarre when you consider there's like 10 midfielders for every quality KPP in the draft ,,, that add some clarity. Gibbo prob < best 3 KPP in the country , whats so bloody bizarre securing a kid of that qualityYou'd want to hope we take some damn inside midfielders with these picks.

NGL, Im a bit worried. Will see what happens tonight I suppose.Whilst we all want good inside mids its not really the end of the world as we are drafting now for 3 years time and people keep mentioning but Cotchin prestia edwards etc will be gone.
Yes but with free agency so will be their salaries and im sure we have 1-2 targets being worked on
I also like Goater but dont think Richmond rate himNGL, Im a bit worried. Will see what happens tonight I suppose.
There is still some pretty talented mids available. Hoping Goater lasts until our pick.
Build from the back we still have quite a few decent mids that can step up over the next year or two, good mids win Brownlows, good backmen win flags, oh I forgot, Dusty does both.You'd want to hope we take some damn inside midfielders with these picks.

You can say what if they get injured when they've been chronically injured the last few years, if not their whole career.Completely agree. Wings are our main area, not of weakness, but where we can improve.
If RCD can take what he showed last year and step it up the next level (run his legs hard Lambo) then he's B grade inside mid, with an outside potential. Dow has some amazing traits, and another year. Ross needs to play to his high end rather than the patchy stuff he delivers too often. So these emerging guys could provide genuine depth to an elite midfield.
Cotch gets fit and stays fit, ditto Prestia, ditto Dusty, Shai takes it up one more step (Oh what a lovely thought 20+ possessions & >1 goals per game), Nank and Ivan go back to being dominant and that is a top tier midfield. Maybe only for another year or two, but it is very very good.
You can't say, what if they get injured? That happens and any team goes down the gurgler. Plan for success, and see where you end up.
