Hawks have clearly got the best backline here.Adelaide with the best young forwards but rest is pretty empty.
Essendon have the best young midfield crop of the lot but otherwise not much.
North TBC after this years draft.
Hawks not much to see.
So in short, Essendon and Adelaide can’t really be split.
Hawks have clearly got the best backline here.
Jeka probably goes back forward again.In fairness I really don’t know much about the Hawks youth down back outside of perhaps Jeka and Day?
It will be Sheezel and 1 of Tsatas/Wardlaw at our picksRight now? Adelaide.
Never know who North gets with 2 & 3 which could possibly change everything
I just hope you get two loyal blokes who play 250+ games for youIt will be Sheezel and 1 of Tsatas/Wardlaw at our picks
Helps that they are both local ladsI just hope you get two loyal blokes who play 250+ games for you
North deserve something.
Jeka probably goes back forward again.
Big Blanck fan, DGB, Day, CJ, Scrimshaw all 23 and under.
Hardwick is only about 25, Sicily is only 27 and still has heaps of footy left, and as captain.
Scrimshaw is 24 and will be 25 in 2023. Jiath is 23 and will be 24 in 2023.Jeka probably goes back forward again.

Didn't know exact ages for Scrim/Jiath, knew they were backend of that, 23-24, my bad!Scrimshaw is 24 and will be 25 in 2023. Jiath is 23 and will be 24 in 2023.
The jury is out on DGB and Blanck. DGB seems lost and lacks composure. SHould try him forward.
Day could be good but seems to have issues with injury.
Hardwick underrated.
Blanck wasn't on Tom Lynch that much, i think for a little, but Lynch kicked 4-5 on DGB who was just too aggressive, and suits more to CHB.Our backline is the best part of our team by a long way, which shows how far away we are…
Blanck - has only played a handful of games and whilst shown potential has a long way to go. Tom lynch gave him an absolute hiding late in the season. Those are the players he will be playing on. He’s going to cop the likes of McKay/curnow, Daniher/hipwood, Hawkins, Lynch..next year is going to be a massive learning curve.
DGB- only two seasons in, but is miles off justifying why he was drafted at pick 6. Was dropped numerous times last season. Is not a lock for best 22, which is a worry. Needs a huge season this year.
Day- last season was a disaster. Injured too often and suspended. Has had no continuity the past two seasons. Like dgb, needs to have a huge season this year. Potential to be a star, but potential is a dangerous word.
CJ- see Day. Injured too often and suspended. No continuity. Regressed last season from 2021.
Hardwick- star. Still underrated by those outside the club.
Scrimshaw- consistent last season. Reckon he could be a decent forward. Still needs to work on his defensive game.
Early on I asked why the Crows weren't rated as highly as others thought.Voted Adelaide in the original thread and see no reason to change this.
How long before it becomes a shitfight and between which 2 clubs will it be? I think Hawks North shitfight will stay on the original thread
My money is North vs Essendon.
No shitfight with Essendon neededVoted Adelaide in the original thread and see no reason to change this.
