2021 Draft Thread

[Baloo]

Either the club is confident our current young mids will do the job, or we've got someone lined up to come across in next years trade.

This years picks seems to indicate to me the club are looking at Jack's successor from within, maybe already within the team or on the fringes. Looking forward to the preseason to see

Gibcus still with forward potential, I'm hoping we can pull off a Naughton heist.

There have barely been any tall forwards taken. I don't think it indicates anything about Jack, just that the class in the tall forwards group this year was lacking.

Wouldnt mind picking Ned Long as a Rookie

Would be fantastic , His speed is an issue but has the size and can kick goals
If we have the spots Long / Williams would be good rookie selections

 

[Dev Tiger]

I agree with some that I would have gone Johnson or Goater at 17. I think Brown is a bit like the Higgins pick in 2017 where we have a lot of competition for the same spot. However the club would know a lot better than me. Sonsie is a great get. Melbourne are elite now at drafting. JVR/ Howes are great value picks.

Yep I think that’s the clubs thinking

I think you're onto them Bully. That or Balta forward I think.

 

[Streak]

Arthur Jones is a great kid and all, I have watched him play since his very early days, but I just don't see him as an AFL player.

 

[tha8ball]

All these kids are guns and steals… until they aren’t.

What's Gibcus like below his knees?

Green must be coming next year

Might have our hooks into someone agreed might not be Green but looks likely that we are probably into someone.

They are hoping for Riley to level up this coming season and Stacky also.

If Stack and Riley impact the side and footy next year we are in front I reckon

Yep.

Geelong always seem to come up with some random selection, it was almost like no-one had heard of Chad Kroeger before.

 

[turk-d-tiger]

Draper & Murley in the picks late 40's

Pies doing well

 

[Scoop]

What's Gibcus like below his knees?

Couple of shins, two feet, ten toes. Pretty normal.

You could be right but as I know nothing about the abilities of this years draft other than what I have read from comment I bow to others thoughts

 

[mrposhman]

Bloody Pies drafting some nice kids today. Daicos probably for unders, Draper for unders and Murley I think could be a really good pickup as that transition from mid to forward type player.

 

[toothless]

Colonwood have paired Crow eaters Draper and Murley. Done well considering their pecking order, could rival Melbourne for the best value for this draft

 

[Tiger Rob]

What's Gibcus like below his knees?

Generally socks. Sometimes crocks, sometimes thongs.

Wylie Buzza springs to mind
