2018 Draft

[Bizzbizz]

would obviously love lukosisus or rankine but no chance so fingers crossed for one of the king boys

 

[Bizzbizz]

bully who do you think at this early stage will be around the mark we will have our pick? and as a second question what do you see our list needs as? love the good work mate

 

[tigerdell]

big inside mid would be ideal

Watching Patrick Cripps last night - How good would he have been in the Yellow n Black

Bloody Lennon

 

[craig]

Yep - Geez woulda been nice it does sit very comfortably as another one of our Draft Howlers.

Chimpa, Dusty, and Cripps, not bad midfield trio

 

[tigerdell]

Murphy Cripps Gibbs didnt win too many flags

I'd love to draft a cripps type for the generation prince, but happy to look forward not back

 

[D85]

Matthew Rowell from Oakleigh Chargers. Saw him today play in constant rain, and was a level above. Tough. Clean. Kicks well on both sides. One to keep an eye on

It's a bit difficult to say but based on player type I'd say the well rounded mids will come in at the 16-18 range. Connor Rozee is one I particularly like, seems to have all the traits that translate to AFL footy.

First priority would be a key back and ideally Ben King, we'd need to trade into the top 10 I would think, not beyond the realms of possibility if we put some of our fringe players on the table.

Matt Rowell will go top 5.

Man King wiht 8.6 in a game over the weekend. Big touted as one of the dominate displays of the last 15 years at TAC level.

The key position players at the top end of this draft are really good. Building blocks for a generation.

Kid's only 18 n already about 201cm. Totally dominated the defence in that game according to the snippets I heard on the future stars show yesterday. Doubting we'll get a sniff at a pick inside the top dozen ranked kids this year, we'll have to get crafty to find some genuine cream at the draft table.

 

[turk-d-tiger]

The problem is going to be that there could possibly be another 3/4 1st round picks that will be compo picks ahead of our 1st round pick this year with all the quality free agents available

Sloan,Gaff,McGovern,Lynch etc could all attract 1st rounders that will fall before our 1st selection which could end up around #20

Some great footage of Max King last week.

Mobility off the charts.

 

[Scoop]

Top end talent very good but whispers that the talent doesn't run deep this year.

 

[turk-d-tiger]

I have concerns that with all the free agents around if they move clubs our 1st rounder could end up being early 20's

Gaff , McGovern , T.Lynch x 2 , Sloan etc

They say that every year.

 

[craig]

Im more than happy to have pick 18 again this year ;D

Pick 22 and Lynch would be great

 

[T-Shirt Tommy]

Let me guess...

This is a superdraft?
