Just moves so well at stoppage. Excellent decision maker too. A bit Shedda like.

2024 Draft Thread
- Thread starter Mr T.
- Start date
He might start on the outside, probably half back. But reckon he will end up a midfielder Dell Boy.
Already impacting there.
Small sample size but schools Langford in the quarter or so on each other in his last match before a season ending injury.
Has nice speed, a step and agility more than say Mopey Langford. Bit of Ed Richards about him.
One of the things I like about his highlight reels is what you don’t see as much as what you do. You don’t see him get flustered, you don’t see dump kicks and you don’t see a lot of easy cheap possessions.
How could you not want him in a Richmond jumper?
A poster made a great point a few pages ago (apologies as I don’t recall who and I’m far too lazy to go back and find it) about drafting a complimentary combination of players and not just the individual. Well if you were a midfielder of any note how could you not want to play alongside Jagga. He’s going to give you plenty of chances to shine.
Not sure who we’re going to get and at what pick but this kid looks to have a great career ahead of him and I wouldn’t be disappointed if it was at Richmond.
Some would say it’s hard to get this draft wrong but I reckon it’s equally as hard to get it absolutely right.
Glad I’m not a recruiter
Yeh, the front and centre goal was nice too. He's a very instinctive but disciplined footballer.
Not many turnovers in there for a guy that wins a lot of contested possession.
Gun. Getting Smith/FOS/Lalor would be a dream.
those picks a wrong and it seems they've got it from zerohanger
currently we have 1 21 29 39 41 47 57 66 73
Is that a magic wand in your pocket Blair, or are you just glad to
Amazing how he always seems to have more time than everyone else. Finds space where there is no space. Almost Knights-like.
I'm all in.
The front and centre goal editing doesn't do him justice, he actually makes the kick to Dowling on the 50 and pushes to the front and centre, so that entire piece of play is 15 seconds. Would have liked to see it play as one. He basically kicks from 65 to the lead up, pushes to the very next contest and crumbs the goal.
Exactly what we lack in our midfield, the ability to get form contest to contest. Spread. The Lachie Neale call by @spook is a pretty good one, I think he is more Neale than Butters, not as brutal and might spread better.
Yep.
Brisbane will be all over us. We don’t have to provide them with enough points on their own to do the deal, they also have later picks for instance, but they would definitely be a lot closer by doing business with us not that.
I can’t see a downside for us unless we intended to use those picks. Sure it makes Brisbane a bit stronger but getting pick 14 makes us a little stronger as well.
West Coast more than willing to part with pick 3 for a pick in return.I know most of our PRE junior watchers think their own *smile* smells best and are not interested in media driven discussion on the draft but this 30 minute episode of 'Gettable" I found very good, and a fair bit of Richmond content, even with Matty Clarke as the special guest and questions on Baker, Graham, Shai and the possibility of splitting pick 3.
Brisbane's pick 14, many clubs after it especially if it remains pick 14 but Richmond in best position to secure.
Murphy Reid, highest football IQ in the draft.
The rise and rise of the Flying Viking another 2 goal 2 on the weekend from 16 possessions.
Harry Armstrong in top 5 mix now? rise up the draft board similar to Cadman's in his draft year.
Already considered a deep draft at the start of the year it just keeps getting deeper.
Originally just considered a midfielders draft quite a few talls have risen up the boards.
GETTABLE: Bomber's big reveal, trade 'done deal', four clubs chase gun, Blue mega signing
Riley Beveridge and Cal Twomey provide the latest trade and draft news and are joined by West Coast list manager Matthew Clarkewww.afl.com.au
Odds on Pick 3 is on the cards as part of the Baker trade.
Yep that move stood out like dogs balls. Screamed elite midfielder.
I doubt we'd be giving up all of those picks for 1 pick this yr & next, we'd be looking to flip some of those into next yrs draft as well.
14 is 1161 pts, 39, 41, 50 is 1131 pts. that's closest i can get with pts with any of our current picks. Which gives us, based of Twomey's prediction, 1, 6, 9, 10, 14, 17, 21, 29, 31, 33, 57

Great man Bully. I remember one night after a few shandys across the road after the game, we ran into Bully strolling through the car parks. Stopped and chatted delightfully to us for 5 mins. And anyone who *smile* slapped Bhudda Hocking....awe.
Said it before but looks and plays a lot like Wilson at Stk. Reckon Toce would love XL.
Prefer Lalor or Draper to Langford, also hope we get Reid - probably the best decision maker in the draft with arguably the best disposal. Two attributes we desperately need more of.
As above us doing business with Bris is a win/win. As far as contention goes we are not a threat to them & it's a win/win deal for both Clubs. All else fails the "handshake" should be what gets it over the line.
