2024 Draft Thread

We play our cards right and we can draft half the next premiership team this year - great options all the way from #1 to 30 and even beyond. Don't think trading up (or trading into next year) is the go.

So Brisbane's first will be pick 20 ,912 points which means pick 39,41,47 57 is plenty so without anything else leaves us 1,23,29,20.

Add in bids for Ashcroft and Kako and it becomes 22 which also push back layer picks

Battle pick 8 compo, GTFO which now pushes back Freo's 9 & 10 to 10 & 11. Stuff your pick 16 Freo, it's 10 & 11 for Bolton and that's it.

Twomey on gettable saying FOS and Lalor are edging ahead as contenders for Pick 1.

Also mentioned we have been linked with Smille with pick 6 and also like Hotton

Giants get band 1 for Harry Perry so now get 16 :mad:

So they will have 15 & 16 before most likely one of our Bolton picks

If we do the business with Brisbane, and I think we have already agreed on it, I'm as certain as I can be that Thursfield will bid on Ashcroft. He did bid on Walter.

After that we can be absolutely certain that Thursfield will take best available and the mainstream view is that it's whoever remains from Lalor and FOS.

As it stands if the draft were on tomorrow and I could have a bet I'd smash Smith at #3 and save on him at #4. (*smile* that. The price is gone.)

Looking at the market, the likelihoods, I think Langford is in calculations as early as #2. Certainly at #4.

The top six or so is emerging.

Don't be surprised if Shai isn't traded in the end. And he is that bloke that almost left for Freo
