2024 Draft Thread

so you would you prefer
FOS and Lalor
over FOS or Lalor + Draper or Jagga + Joe Berry?
not me.
JoeBerry could be the best of the lot.
Dunno about a resounding No.
Like the idea of having 2 of FOS/Jagga/Lalor.
And still have 4 picks after the above.
Very much doubt we'd get any of the above @ 6
If we want 2 of then it has to be another top 4 pick.
I think it's more like FOS or Lalor + (Reid or Langford or Armstrong) + Berry
If we get 9 and 10 for Shai, and 12 for Bakes we could still get two of Armstrong, Langford, Berry, Travaglia, Lindsay at 9/12.
I sort of get why not many here rate Smillie, but I’d be stunned if he doesn’t go inside the top 10.
Perhaps even to us.
Some on here have talked themselves out of even considering him, but not sure the clubs or recruiters have.

Do you think when Lalor goes will impact this? If we were to miss out on Lalor do we then take Smillie with our second pick?
Yeah I’ve said all along that I think it’s more about the combination of players this year rather than just best available.
Can’t see us taking multiple similar players like Smillie, Bo Allen and Langford together. Think we’ll be looking for complementary types.
Gerreyn got an accidental knee or kick to the head just before 3/4 time, is probably done for the day. Has had 21 disposals, 7 marks, 24 hitouts and 2 goals.
I haven’t watched much of the juniors and I’m by no means an expert, but from the footage of all these kids, he looks to have the most upside to me. That game out at box hill was like man against boys. Powerful unit.
Nearly as influential a game as Samsung might be capable of one day.
Not sure if anyone has talked about a Cotchin type replacement specifically, but I reckon there is one available later in this draft.
Hamish Davis from Claremont. Saw his debut against East Perth about a month ago, and he looks a very solid prospect who can play inside mid but also forward as a small goal kicker. He is super clean at ground level.
Listed at 190cm. I reckon he’d be a top 10 prospect in this draft if he was a little taller. Not seen him mentioned in the top 30 prospects for this draft. But he can really play.
Stepped up to WAFL league level seamlessly which is a very good sign.

if we get Smillie I'll fair dinkum spew up. He's apparently slow, we have enough slow midfielders already. We have no room left for another one.
Reckon that combination can include no-one that cant cover the ground. Get up and back all match and ideally have a high amount of agility.
We are already the slowest team in the country and are losing our 3 zippiest players.
Puts a massive question mark on Big Willie Smillies suitability for us.
