Thanks.
I don't see Bont effective in any role other than midfield either. Thats why I see Knevitt similarly to Bont. He's more athletic than Cripps at a similar height. But Knevitt better athletically than Cripps. If he can improve his kicking, IMO, he could be a Bont clone (without any pressure of course!)
They might decide to leave together too. Have the brain surgeons thought of that?
I think there have been many players with questionable kicking that have become very good players specially when they have the assets knevitt does , Size speed and ability to find and extract the ball as well as being a good mark. Im a believe his kicking can be improved and he also offers an option up foward with his size and marking.
At 1 of our later picks he certainly has the potential to become a value pick that has massive upside
Pick 3, is that the GWS pick? Gets confusing with the father sons this year.
If it is, then the Hawks want Finn. If it’s later I’m thinking they want Andrew.
That would be the dreamThat's been said by Cal by memory but I'm not so sure we will pull the trigger on him at pick 7 (9). I still think he goes outside the top 10, now if we were able to snare Hobbs at 9 and Sinn at 17 wow! But perhaps unlikely to make it our 2nd first-rounder.
Draft Range
9-16
Potential Landing Spots
St Kilda (Pick 9), Brisbane (Pick 14), Richmond (Pick 15)
Draft Profile: Josh Sinn
A dashing backman with plenty to offer, get to know one of the best defenders ahead of the draft.www.zerohanger.com
Not many 18 year olds qualify as “men” not now . Maybe in 1950 but unfortunately although kids grow up quicker they are more immature at 18 than any time in history IMO.
Great post. I didn’t grow up until I was in my 40”s. The world is full of men who are really boys. Fortunately you don’t really need to be a man to play football. Ask JDG, Toby Greene etc.
I think so. If GWS take Andrew the offers will be coming thick and fast to GC.
Bont was already a smooth mover showing tons of class. The other bloke simply hasn’t shown the same level of silk. If any.
I see that as being good for SuperCoach over anything else. The Prospectus really needs to come back, i am assuming u were a fan of that each yr?
Richmond
Draft picks: 7, 15, 26, 27, 28, 83
List needs: Inside midfielders, key forwards, outside speed, key defensive depth
Who could be available at first pick: Josh Rachele, Josh Ward, Ben Hobbs, Jye Amiss
Could be in the mix after that: Josh Goater, Josh Sinn, Sam Butler Zac Taylor, Angus Sheldrick, Jack Williams, Blake Howes
Richmond is crying out for inside midfielders after being smashed in the clinches last season, ranking dead last for stoppage-clearance differential and 16th for contested-possession differential. Ball-winning machine Hobbs would suit the Tigers’ needs perfectly, but will he still be on the board at seven (nine after bids)? Ward, an ultra-consistent midfielder likened to Zach Merrett, could also impact right away and may be on offer, while Rachele has the matchwinning traits as a forward-mid to be a superb option for the Tigers. Amiss is worth considering after the loss of Callum Coleman-Jones and Mabior Chol during the trade and free agency period. With five picks inside the top 30, Richmond could look to package selections to move up the board, but expect them to be sitting pretty either way with their strong hand. Line-breaking options Goater or Sinn may be available at the Tigers’ second pick, while draft bolter Sheldrick, a tough-as-nails 179cm midfielder and classy ball user Taylor look to be around the mark for their three picks in the 20s.
November latest: Relentless inside midfielder Hobbs has been reportedly linked to the Tigers and they have also shown a keen interest in Ward, but the Northern Knights product may become a Hawk with the previous pick. Key forward Amiss is also in the mix and would address another glaring need. Goater would be difficult to resist if he fell to Richmond’s second selection, or will the the Tigers pounce on another Butler? As for their trio of picks in the 30s, Richmond has shown interest in crafty forward Motlop, while Bazzo could come into the equation as a tall defender.
