I reckon Langfords body of work, and probably ability,
is analogous to Colby McKercher (yeah, mckercher is quicker)/
which is a kind of form line that Langford is top 3 most years.
but I think this year he is 5-10.
its not hard to make a case he's better at everything Sam Lalor does.
But I think Lalor is just getting fit.
we make these kind of calls with horses every Saturday

And Tambling isn't in the top 10 worst pick 4's!
The Buddy factor might loom large but Tambo was fine.
Tambo was a better footballer than Conca.
simple if this happens then WC have picks 3 and 19 and we still get Hawks first rounder for Bakes (a future tiger captain)……
agree.
I reckon on top age performance, the top 10 would look something like
Jagga, Ashcroft, lombard, langford, trainor, Lindsay, Draper, joe berry, murphy reid, travaglia
Note: thats not my top 10
He should have been played in the backline very early in the piece. Speed & skills. Would do very well the way the game is played now. Could have a Rioli like impact.
Ah good old Richard Tambling AKA The Witness. No awareness or vision.
Still remember the ongoing debates with Disco08 telling him how limited he was.

He finds the footy against juniors, is very good overhead and a very nice long kick.
The concern is that with his lack of pace, he also doesn't have a step. He's not exactly twinkle toes. Have a fear it will limit him against the big boys when the pace goes up 50 notches.
Reckon very best you can hope for is Hayden Young (a very good player), but a very good chance he doesn't make that.
This was Xavier Lindsay on him for a reasonable portion of the first qtr last week before getting injured (11 possessions).
Personally, would be just as happy getting Lindsay as Langford. Similar style and outputs through the year and one projected to go a decent lick lower. Reckon Lindsay has more agility and more versatile.
On that - anyone have Lindsay's test results.
The ole Duck. Another one who came a cropper. Heh heh heh....he was even one of her best allies there for a long time. What a "regime".
Lack of genuine pace is the only question mark. Otherwise, he would be a top 5 lock.
I think on 2024 form, ashcroft, lombard and langford have to be ahead of draper.
Drapers champs were just OK, langford and lombard won the Larke, and all 3 had good senior form like draper.
I think objectivity is like pregnancy,
You cant half do it.
And to be honest, Reid has slipped between my cracks, ive hardly seen him play
All hyperbole aside - is this a realistic expectation of what we are likely to get?
Or is it more likely to be
Rioli - 1 pick in the high teens
Baker - early second round
Shai - 9 with something back or 17
Sincere question -trying to guess that the other clubs would be prepared to pay (not what we think we should get)?
