2024 Draft Thread

Because potentially there’s 2 better players available at 4&5 like Lalor and Smillie or Langford and Allen. Also believe Nth will pick Trainor.
Likely to be 2 very good players available rather than just selecting one.
With no real standout this would make it a no brainer.
Only proviso is if the club strongly believe there’s a standout amongst the group

Yes spot on and for that reason the Saints would be crazy to offer that deal. The Suns picks are probably our only realistic chance at this stage but still a lot of wheeling and dealing to go.
Problem with a possible suns trade is that 1 does not equal 8 and 9.
Its too big a jump
I get the rationale.
But picking an elite Jagga or Draper is betuer than b grade Smillie or Langford or Allen. I like Allen a lot, but wouldn't trade down.
Lalor could be at the level, but fitness/consistency are still questions. I'd love for him to be a tiger.
Short answer is I'd rather one A than two Bs.
In most years yes but if you look at what is possible this year which is very unique it may still be worth doing
A tackle and 2 clearances too. Good start.
Not watching, got a WAFL assignment,
But ive said before,
The real good ones go on ball and get plenty early in AFL reserves
Its sorts the top 5 from 6-30 imo
N daicos, will ashcroft, JHF, harley reid all impacted state leagues straight up.
I know theres more than possession counts, but broadly its a good indicator here;
The good 18yos get 10-15 disposals early
The really good ones get 20-30
Jagga smith 16 touchs with several minutes to.play in 2nd quarter kids a ball magnet.
Leading possession getter on the ground with 17. Kid isn’t putting a foot wrong.
We have been crying out to draft gold pure mids. This kid is every bit one and staring right at our recruiters.
We just have to keep no1, cause he a notch above 2nd imo
If we can get another pick in the top 3 and draft Jagga and either Draper or FOS to go with him, would be gold IMO
Nah. Will probably cop our standard two injuries tonight and be dead in the water, giving the Scum a percentage booster the week after.We'll beat Collingwood next week
