2024 Draft Thread

Lawlor, Smiley, Horton, Fowell, Treinor and Armstrang, how happy did they all look in the video.
every player is happy to be drafted and club is irrelevant. FOS was excited and happy even after North picked him. lol

Now need to slide pick 28 a couple of times to the 40s and bank a F1 and F2.

They have not only covered the spine, they have also drafted players that have connections already, all Victorians, this could be the best draft we have ever seen.

Securing another 1st rounder too, amazing job.

This is the team that created a triple premiership list in and amongst the expansion clubs, I have faith they just did a great job for the clubs future .

Trainor's reaction was priceless! Even more so when you compare it to Langford's. Poor fella was looking around for a tall building to jump off when he should have been celebrating getting drafted. So close to getting to the Tigers mate... so close! :(

Brilliant night at the footy club watching the draft live at Punt Road.
Very generous by the club to those in attendance.
If this is the start of the Shane Dunn era I'm very impressed.
Most professionally run event I've attended in a long time.
Great to meet a few other PREnders as well.

No point in too many post mortems or gnashing of teeth because we have picked who we picked.

<snip>

We are going to get some smashings around the ball next season and probably some of our better young talent will be playing VFL but we have built a foundation. The player i expect to feature most a senior level next season is Smillie, I think Lalor will be phased in as we build his fitness.
Darksider! ;)

With sliding our draft pick tonight is Charlie Richardson (grandson of KB), a draft worthy player?

Also Jack Whitlock and Jobe Shanahan were the 2 invited players who missed out. Surely they are first 2 picked tonight.

I reckon Essendon will want to trade up. The picks immediately after ours don't look too threatening for tall selections, then it's game on.
We'll take their pick 39? and a future first thanks.

Who has multiple decent picks left ,l can't see us trading out our pick for later picks .
Still quite a bit of talent left ,in all areas of the field.

Wonder which club will be happy to give us a F1st for our next pick?

Which teams do we reckon are going to fall next year?

Wouldn't worry about the speed-midfield gap. Yeah right now it hasn't been addressed but that's short term thinking.
You have changed your tune,,you have been going on for months about the need for speed ,from this years crop. :LOL:

What did I just say Bungal? Are you incapable of reading ? We now have what looks like 3 early 1st round picks next year. It can be addressed then.

You didn't listen to Blair either did you ?

Why so negative about the club ?

Which club is going to stink it up alongside us, Eagles and Norf? Get their F1 Blair.

Bombers look enticing.

I reckon Hawthorn, Essendon, Sydney and St Kilda are probably the 4 clubs most in play. 2 of the next 3 picks after ours are with the Dogs, and I reckon they might trade 1 of theirs back too.
