Maybe. Or is it ingrained in him to run around all game gimme, gimme, gimme I'm the figjam? Might have difficulty adjusting?

Wouldn't he be counted as being in those score involvements already, as the involvement is from being part of a chain of possessions that creates a goal???
A bit. He’ll need to work really hard to put some body armour on. But his strength is his running not being an in/under bull
Fiora wasn't bad at running either... and Menadue.
Gotta be able to put on size and strength if going to play in the middle.
Both are true. But as Ross Lyon would say "don't let the narrative deceive you"
He was the best clearance and contested ball player in the match last week (and has been all year) - By a large margin.
Just because he turns a contested situation into a clean possession so easily - don't confuse that with The Bomb always getting cheap touches.
He's elite at the coalface.
The good debate on here is will that transition to the big league.
This is a strong possibility if we can keep (get!) footballers on the park. It made me think: if we have pick 3 or later, Vontae and Guy will be gone. For me Lombard and Ashcroft are the next best and we can't get them either. Then there's a group
The Suns might come knocking for pick 3 to get ahead of a Lombard bid. They currently hold picks 8 and 10. Would you rather Jagga or two of Lalor, Hotton, Reid, Allan, Draper/whoever else?
Or, as Jack says, trade for LDU?
I'm not in love with either of them.
Vontae is the only hill in this draft.
I'd be interested in his cp/up ratio as that metric from the junior level usually translates to the next level
You'd hate to miss FOS!
Trade pick 3 and then he isnt drafted 1 or 2.
Tho most clubs work out who is going where, so by the time of a trade it would be an informed decision.
Lot of the season to go but the Bomb is putting runs on the board
Also don't forget we are up to our armpits in a points trade. Bris the best target (8 now but could drift)
Could we also trade with GCS, say Short for pick 10.
We could end up with 3, 8, 10 and 22
Smilie for me all the way.
194cm beast midfielders that can get around the ground and then push deep into the forward line are worth gold.
Let’s not complicate things.

Laylor & Langford could well be the best players to come out of this draft
Trade points for Lions pick
Trade #2 for #9 + #10
#8 , #9 , #10
Laylor , Langford , Whitlock
2nd rounders - Kako , Travaglia

In terms of getting the ball he is the closest thing to Kevin Bartlett I have seen. And clearly he is team orientated when it comes to disposal. A good result if we get him.
Could end up with Cox. Perkins. Reid. Not a massive return on investment as yet.
Lalor will turn out to be a very good Afl player,has all the attributes .
Give him 2 years in the system ,and he will start dominating.
*smile* cheating afl. As soon as we build up some extra points to trade, in come the new rules.
It’s *smile*. Clubs have planned a strategy for this draft on the existing rules. Any changes should only come in after this year’s draft.
