Yep I reckon it will end up as Lalor, Smillie, Lindsay, Berry with our first four.

2024 Draft Thread
- Thread starter Mr T.
- Start date
Yes, as MT said, Uni is very time consuming.Bloody hell, where did you go to Uni !!
I spend my 1st year at Melbourne at Naughtons and the Clyde, going to see live bands and chasing girls
The kid is a bull, goal kicking mid for mine. Although just as comfortable on a forward flank. If he ends up with us he probably plays a 50/50 split due to the mid talent ahead of him for now
That's fine. He will go to the basketcase and he will return in 3 years.
Think of it like a Caddy Prestia Lynch plan, mark 2
The top 6 mids in this draft are as the above.
I know the club will take whoever Melbourne doesnt pick. At this stage its Smillie.
But if a curve ball is thrown in ie Tauru at 2 then we will have to make a decision. But you can lock in our first 2 picks to come from that group of 6 players.
At 10 & 11 I have Allan and Berry as my top 2 preferences.
Like I said yesterday Allan gives me Weddle vibes. Prototype modern day player.
Weddle had elite endurance and was strong overhead, probably rate his kicking a fraction better than Allan. My big concern with Allan is his disposal when kicking at full pace, this is a tough one to tidy up although not impossible.
A thought - should we only recruit from Vic Country - would be an awesome draft I reckon.
Potentially Lalor, FOS, Langford, Lindsay, Berry, Travaglia, Faull, Whitlocks x2.
We should just nominate it as the RFC Academy for tonight - no other clubs allowed to bid on these guys.

I'm seeing more of a medium forward. I'm seeing Will Hayward, Jake Stringer. That sort of tupe. Most of his highlights seem to be in the F50, not around the ball. Its a big swing to say that he will move into being more a mid than a forward.
I'm sure someone will know, but the kid that was from our NGA, I can't remember his name. Everything has gone quiet on him, my understanding was that if he isn't bid on in either the ND or the RD, that we could automatically put him on our Cat B rookie list. Is that correct? And if so, do we reckon we do it?
Forget Watts, I'm having flashbacks to Richmond man-child Anthony Banik. Not comfortable at all picking Smillie at 6. The club knows better than us though.
