2023 mid-season rookie draft

I just knew we weren't going to take Buller. Treatise has some AFL attributes but I don't think we needed another defender.
 
No use picking a player if they don’t see AFL traits that give some possibility of senior football. This is the mid season draft after all. Every player picked tonight has been passed over multiple times over the course of their careers.

If we did pick Buller chances are that most on here would then be complaining that he’s terrible and worse than Todd Elton or Dean Putt etc… and should be delisted.

Know nothing about Coulthard, except the FL driver! Sheesh.
If we can't now at least win the Melbourne GP, then we might as well pack it in ....

Lane 1 : "Nigel" Mansell

Lane 2 : " David" Coulthard


... Vrooom Vrooom......

Or
Kmart Stengle? Should have kept the original
Or Butler? Or Higgins (coulda told him you're not going anywhere)? Or Castagna (who must have been pissed off to do what he did!)? Or did we think the 17/18 year old MRJ was going to be the 2nd coming? (I think some on here did).
 
Coulthard’s highlights on the Richmond site are impressive. Long arms, one touch, great skills and pace I like it.

Coulthard looked to be a dead eye *smile* with those 4 goals he kicked on the weekend.

Is Himmelberg enough?

Jack will be gone, Tom closer to the end of his career than the beginning and we appear to have bugger all developing key forwards coming through the seconds given Ryan’s a ruckman
It’s ok we’re expecting a few of our forward flankers to have growth spurts over summer they’ll come back as key forwards

Spot on like getting rid of a rookie selection premiership player Bulter to then go out and use pick 27 on a clone called Clarke.
We had 44 small forwards we now have 1.
We had 43 wingers now we have 2
But we always have 2533 HBF.
Just really poor list management.
5 in 30 is a disaster.
Bauer looks like a bust already. Making a goal kicking forward into a defender when we are screaming for a goal kicker.
What's next the smurf we picked up tonight to be played out of the back pocket.
I'm shattered. Perfect opportunity to use 2 picks on 2 kids or 2 mature age marking Tall forwards

is that the guy who has been playing as a defender all year?
No, Kaelan Bradtke , SSP selection on 14th Feb 2023

you are thinking of Jacob Bauer, a defender who has played the majority of his footy as a defender, apart from the last couple of years when he went forward.
