2024 Draft Thread

Yeah. But the frame and the gait are very reminicent don't you think?
Shoulders. Build. Very similar. That’s why I made the reference last week.

Of course, actual playing style a bit different and performance at AFL level yet to be confirmed, but physique wise, similar.
 
Funny you say that. For a while now the SANFL has been considered a pretty low standard by a lot of recruiters. There was an article somewhere - might have been The Age - a couple of years ago that raised the degeneration of SA football.

I dunno. I just worry about picking SA’s. What I see watching the SANFL isn’t great.
I said a while ago that VFL was the next highest state league compared to other state leagues and was told that the SANFL was superior.

Yeah, nah.
 
The problem is that the jungle drums beating are that Baker is more likely to want to go to the Eagles than the Dockers who have the picks.
If he goes of course.
Baker and Broad to go to the Eagles. Graham may also be part of the trade for their first round pick, if they too are seeking to wiggle around the free agency rules.

Why do people think Broad is going? Why would the rebuilding eagles take a 32 year old?

Interesting to hear Sims was in the top-5 for agility in pre-season testing.
His work rate off the ball needs to improve ,second efforts/pressure/tackles ,work rate in getting up the fround,,his marking is very good,but at the moment he reminds me of Peter Wright ...
