Who will we get with our later picks?


Freak

Recommended Posts

we all know watts will be chosen as number 1, and we all know the names being floated around for our pick 17 and pick 19. but who will we get with pick 35, 51, 64 and 76?

I'm going to review this thread and see who was the closest to the money. And whoever that is I will give them life long respect :D

Has to be in order.

Here is mine:

pick 35: Jarrad Redden - SA ruckmen. We all know we need one. He is agile and is another midfielder in the centre after the tap out such are his 2nd and 3rd efforts.

pick 51: Tom Allwright - a midfielder that has good skills and is a good bartel-like overhead mark. He may be gone a little bit before us..but not earlier than the 3rd round.

pick 64: Liam Jones- a 194cm key forward with plenty of zip and marking ability. missed plenty of football through injury.

pick 76: N. F. I

For a start Freak, I think we have pick 67 not 64, the next would be 83.

35: Dayne Beams, midfielder from Southport.

He is a hard at it midfielder with good skills, has a bit of attitude (the good kind). Was originally touted as a late pick but is becoming more and more likely to go top 40.

51: Jarred Redden, ruckman from SA.

He is a good prospect, definately a national draft pick instead of rookie/pre drafts. He could slide a bit further than people are thinking and we would have to take him at 51. A good young talent who could become a best 22 ruckman.

67: Stephen Motlop, forward/mid from NT.

Young Motlop could either go alot earlier or alot later, hard to tell, regardless I think he would be a good pick up. He has good skills and fantastic speed.

Naturally his name has got alot of attention and he has the tools to be a good player.

there are two boys i think we should look at as either very late picks or rookies

1) Patrick Heenan--indigenous boy from NT...extremely agile, extremely--seen some good footage, i wil try to find where it is (can play forward or back)

2) Roland Ah Chee--another indegenous boy but is a midfielder and is very very consistent. nice speed. good kick

so i put these two forward as possible late picks

would be wrapt if we got either of them

I hope your right! It would mean that someone else would slide to our next two picks!

Any news on Liam Shiels? (spelling maybe, sorry)

There was a whole thread on him about a month ago saying how we were the only club had registered interest in him.

maybe use our 4th rounder on him?

Would love it if we picked up a ruckman with our 3rd round. I would love for Roughead to slide that far.

Every year there are 1 or 2 players who slip out of the first round and are taken early in the second. E.g. last year many had Alex Rance going around the #8 mark for one reason or another he slipped to 17.

What players this year will slip?

I reckon McKernan and maybe Sidebottom.

i just hope we use our first 2 picks on KPP (Watts and i hope Shoenmakers)

and then get what is the best available with our next picks!!!

A SMOKEY LATE:

Charlie Sharples

DOB: 16/2/89

State league: SA

Club: Sturt

He played for SA against the VFL this year and acquitted himself quite well, but he wasn't at Draft Camp because he was playing in the reserves when they had finals on.

Charlie is not too dissimilar to Cameron Stokes and they played together for the Northern Territory. He's a really smooth mover is extremely hard at it.

Charlie's a little bit leaner and taller than Stokes and with the success that the Hawks had with him this year, and the same with Melbourne and Austin Wonaeamirri, you'd have to think someone would have a crack at Charlie late or as a rookie.

Mckernan at pick 17 or 19 would be outstanding.

Steele Sidebottom has been touted a top 10 pick.

So has Mckernan.

And so was Rance last season there is always a slider.

ID actually suggest he is a big chance to slide, he had one incredible game, deserves to be top 15 but all of the names below have legitimate cases to be a better prospect...

Watts

Naita

Rich

Hartlett

Ziebell

Vickey

Yarran

Trengove

Hill

Swift

Why would Bentley 'slot nicely into our 22?

Have you seen him play before?

The guy reeks of skill, a ball magnet, and can kick a goal. Good replacement for Chris Johnson on the half back line.

I'm shocked he was delisted from Port. Carlton have obviously seen the talent on display as they've invited him down for a pre season.

Would rather pick him up with our final draft pick then an Isaac Weetra/Heath Neville speculative punt in the 60's who most likely will never play a game for the club.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    PREGAME: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    After two disappointing back to back losses the Demons have the bye in Round 14 and then face perennial cellar dweller North Melbourne at the MCG on Saturday night in Round 15. Who comes in and who goes out?
