Moggies, St Kiddenme n Mould Coast picks.We have a good draft haul this year :
1st Rounders - Ours/Geelongs
2nd Rounders - Ours/St Kilda's
3rd Rounders - Ours/Gold Coasts
Plenty of picks means plenty of options
They've already traded their 1st so they won't be going down that path.Nick Daicos looming as the top pick. Pies will hope they can play it like Sydney did with Campbell last year and get a pick in before a bid comes. I don’t think they will be able to.
Good shout, should’ve known that.They've already traded their 1st so they won't be going down that path.
Today just the lazy 40 disposals, 27 kicks, 13 handballs, 9 marks, 11 inside 50's and 2. 4 for Oakleigh Chargers. Averaging 33 over 3 games, 7 marks and has kicked 8 goalsNick Daicos looming as the top pick. Pies will hope they can play it like Sydney did with Campbell last year and get a pick in before a bid comes. I don’t think they will be able to.
So Colonwood will be loading up with about 500 scungy fourth round picks trying to scrounge up enough points to match whatever bid comes for the kid. Or maybe they'll have to hock their entire 2022 draft picks going into deficit for him.They've already traded their 1st so they won't be going down that path.
Yeah I think the system at the moment is warped.So Colonwood will be loading up with about 500 scungy fourth round picks trying to scrounge up enough points to match whatever bid comes for the kid. Or maybe they'll have to hock their entire 2022 draft picks going into deficit for him.
Disagree - there should be no discount. Having access to the player is the advantage. That's it.Yeah I think the system at the moment is warped.
There is no way that you should be able to match a top pick with a load of junk picks AND get the benefit of a 20% discount.
I personally think it should be"
A 20% discount IF you are using a pick in the same round OR
No discount provided on value for matching.
That is Fantastically explained Sir I like it Hopefully Paul Broderick's boy keeps improving and end of probably next year, we can milk the point system as well. He sounds promising, only 16 I think.Yeah I think the system at the moment is warped.

We have a great example of what it costs to match with a load of junk picks as the Dogs got to do that last year with JUH. They essentially "paid" picks 29,33,41,42,52 and 54 for him. 6 picks in a crap draft for the number 1 pick. They would have needed to find another good pick in the 20's if there was no discount, OR keep or downgrade their 1st pick for a later 1st for a partial match.
At the moment, clubs are essentially being given a double discount by getting the 20% discount and match with crap picks.

The Bullants booted four straight for the term but a goal to ‘Hurricane’ Harry ensured the Lions were close enough."
"including a Harry Broderick belter from the boundary line"
"Harry ‘Houdini’ Broderick: Young Brodders dipped into his big bag of tricks for this game to boot two magical goals from the boundary line, one in the second and one in the third. The one in the second was arguably better, but the one in third was crucial."
Yeh I seen that so no Brisbane Lions for him, 163 games for the TigesLuckily Paul only played 93 games for Fitzroy, or we might have had a fight to get him. Hopefully he can play a bit.
Is it an U19's comp now? or is it just to catch up for last year?This years draft is going to be a corker. Cal Twomey AFL draft commentator went to a double header I think he said, Under 19's Round One game a couple of weeks ago and he said there were 20-30 ready AFL players he saw that day. There's 9 other teams in the comp, S.A., W.A., Qld, NSW, and NT kids as well so I'd love to draft the full 6, hopefully nail 3 or 4 off them would be fantastic.
We can always bring in a free agent gunn to bolster our top shelf players - Z Merrett
Yep, lots of the boys are last year's Under 18's, it's been name changed just for this year I think from Under 16's and 18's to Under 17's and 19's to let last years kids who didn't get drafted an opportunity at that level.Is it an U19's comp now? or is it just to catch up for last year?

I've taken an interest in a boy Jack Rossimel, 193cm from Northern Knights, plays CHF and FF, looks a good sort, kicked 2.2 on the weekend, did well for the Northern Knights, he is in the Under 19's just 17 still - 05/11/2003.
I met his mum when I went up for the 2019 Richmond - Gold Coast game and they were up there for the Under 16's carnival, watched a couple of the carnival games and he looked good. Hope the Tiges can draft him with a late draft pick, maybe a 40's plus pick.
"The 193cm key forward was certainly influential in his team’s result, providing a great target from centre half-forward with his constant leading at the ball carrier. Rossimel’s greatest strength wasn’t just his ability to lead up and give his teammates a target, it was also his incredible dexterity at ground level – able to gather any ball below his knees at speed and handpass to a teammate perfectly. Rossimel finished the game with 16 disposals and six marks."
D85, are the clubs all paying their coaches the same?Interestingly, the current coach of Northern Knights has come across from Oakleigh Chargers, so he will be getting the best in the business in charge of developing him. Id say that Oakleigh's drafting strike rate over the last few years has been one of the best, even if you remove the players who draft themselves (Rowell, Ugle-Hagen, etc)
