Defs the right type to rookie. His speed over 20 is damn impressive for such a unit.

GEELONG KISSED ON THE *smile*, more like complete mouth over it, they also got ablett for some 40,s pick, ablett like rioli while not killing it, would of gone first round due to his oldman, just about being greatest footballer ever.

What is his abilities? The recruiting team saw Jack Graham as a leader with alot of ability. This is not a blue print for selection.

He’s the modern footballer - size, agility and ability to play multiple positions. And a leader. Hope he falls to us.

WA captain, like Graham. Competitive, never out of the contest. Good agility and I reckon will be a very big boy (not super tall but solid). Wouldn't surprise me to see the Eagles take him with 13.

Would be a good pick up, but will go a lot earlier than the last Larke Medallist

Has got a bit of a Tom Lynch look about him the way he moves.

I havnt seen him play, but his build reminds me of Jon Brown, and apparently has similar competitive spirit.

It sounds like he could fall to 17, which is proving to be a very, very good number for Richmond.

We should get our talls with the picks we have, Talls slide every year.

plus you can bet clubs will pay overs for small forwards who work hard defensively.

Im starting to look forward to a fruitful draft

 

[jokershoppe]

The richmond pressure factor has seen, geelongs menzel go from stevie j replacement to basically not wanted with his new contract about half what it was, and no takers from other AFL clubs.

 

[Harry]

To have 17 20 and 25 after winning the flag AND the reserves being choc full of young talent is a good position to be in. We can form a dynasty if we play our cards right.

Can we take Hugh Beasley as a delisted free agent?

no, we potentially could have last year, he would need to nominate for draft

I like him a lot but AFL standard he is not

 

[Blind Charlie]

Hasn't even turned 22 yet, many a player has been cast off at an early age only to make it back at a later stage.
Seen worse than Beasley get taken as a mature age pick.
From what I've seen of him he goes ok, wouldn't be upset if he got rookied.

Im aware of his age BC, & I only missed 2 VFL games again this year so I know how he plays & as I said I like him & he was a real find for us

By him signing up for our VFL again next year is possibly a sign he himself thinks AFL is beyond him.
