Review Winners and Losers - 2016 AFL National Draft

Remove this Banner Ad

McGrath is a star. Could play in the middle from round 1 next year and average 25. So damn clean.

Yet to debut and is already a star.

6% of the comp averaged 25 or better in 2016. Players that didn't Bontempelli, Boak, Mundy, Deledio, Scully, Ward.

Pre season over reaction at its best.

No it's not, He plays a game style that allows him to rack up the ball at will so 25 will be easy for him in the middle, Won't get that chance this year though.

He was outstanding yesterday, His attacking handball game was 1st class but his defensive nous was very impressive, Not often do you get players who are both extremely competent in both defense and offense from day 1, Mills was this last season.

He was pick 1 for a reason and yesterday he showed a little glimpse of it.

Don't take the use of the word star so literally as well, I'm not comparing him to Buddy, Bont and Pendlebury.

No over reaction? You have called him a star after a pre-season game V the Suns. He is yet to debut and sits along side the other stars in Dangerfield and Fyfe? Give me a break.

Easy for him to average 25 in 2018? Let him play against the men 1st before making these predictions.They can come back to haunt.

Kind of how like you said Black was better than Hurley?

Hurley was a terrible forward. He had concrete hands and had no idea about leading. Much better back as he can punch and gets taken to the ball. Your lucky he could switch back. Stats don't lie.

Aren't you the one that said Bellchambers was a better ruck than Goldy? Pages of debate on that little chestnut!!

Nah that wasn't me although I did say Tarrant would end up being a spud so not very correct there.
 
Maybe compare their best year as forwards. Both average with little bewteeen them - Black did mange more goals. Which as a forward is kind of important.

I'm pretty sure every club in the competition would take Hurley over Aaron Black...even if they were 'forced' to play Hurley forward.

Terrible? Come on man... Come on! You know that's rubbish. Sure he's a better back but terrible forwards don't kick consecutive bags of 5, ever ;)

It was a 5 and a 6 if memory serves

Terrible - his best year as a forward he kicked 26 goals - the same as Daniel Merrett and 1 one than Kieran Harper!!!

He became a superstar back which saved a top 5 pick.

Got a cracking thread for you mighty man - page 21.

"Zero gamers at your club who will be guns"

Now if that thread doesn't stop posters from making big claims before a player has debut then nothing will.
 
Swans looked to have done well from this draft, Ollie Florent looks awesome, that chase down on JJ was big time, also Hayward has done some good things.
Swans starting to build a seriously good bunch of young talent add Florent and Hayward to Mills, Heeney and Aliir
Have really picked up there game in this department.

Good, because the rest of their squad looks cooked.
