Errrr, bump.

Have opinions changed from people after the carnival?

Jarka, can you now see that Rich is far less risky than Naitanui?

You missed my point. Rich is still a risk, every player drafted is, but my other main issue was not making a decision too early. I've always said that it's best to wait untill the end of the carnival and season was over before deciding.

I haven't seen all the games yet and I still want to see how they play for the rest of the season before deciding

Interesting comment by ex-filth captain Nathan Buckley over the weekend.

By his reckoning he would place NikNat around # 5 in the draft.

Interesting comments by Dennis the menace on the telly too. He seems to have the Vibe clubs arent exactly lining up for him.. Im not sure that its Naita not being good..as much as it is Rich, Watts and a handful of others are coming on quicker....all things are relative arent they ..

Yeah definately interesting listening yesterday. Ox seemed convinced West Coast would jump on him, but there certainly have been a lot of doubts raised about how much of that potential will be realised. Brucey seemed to echo Cometti's thoughts that teams were hoping that someone else would take the risk first. Watt's and Rich are starting from a good football base (awareness-wise) and Nick Nat has been playing catch right from the start. The big question is will he catch up to the rest, and if he does, wil he surpass them. High risk, high reward? I'm still leaning towards Watt's.

Having seen the game, and taped it, I plan to watch it again by the way, Naitanui does look a top 5 pick. Geez he can jump! He is a goer, and plenty of upside in him. The game didn't allow Watts to have a great game. But that's how WA planned it anyway. But what Watts did, he did do well. Mitch Banner looked good. Rich was lively, but not prominent, but credit must be given to his opponent...

Look, this year's draft has great depth. The top 8 are all good.

NikNat is a mad Filth supporter !!!

I'm sure if there was a chance he could play for the Filth he would take back his homesick comments....... :rolleyes:

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
