Busslinger is a very good player

Hopefully we land a player at 17. We have the best young talent in the comp. It would be great to expand on that, and land that superstar at this pick. In a Covid year, I reckon it’s a great pick to have, in addition to our later picks. Club is so well positioned after 7-8 years of planning. Many of the lower rung sides are rightfully excited about having good early picks. But it’s one thing to have them, and another thing to get them right. Hopefully they don’t get them right, and we capitalize at 17.

Is there a problem with him?

He looks decent, just seems pretty slow.

Matt Roberts reminds me of Dyson Heppell.  He’s a midfielder but also an all rounder type.  Certainly talented and wouldn’t be a poor choice.  I thought Power would be his new home given they need to restock their midfield.  Not sure he’s what MFC would pick but given he’s been top 10 quality, if he was a slider then JT would have to consider.  I think we may hope for a Goater, Sinn or Sonsie if they slide through.   I think all will be gone imv and would be looking at Chesser or Wilmot for outside run and pace across wing/half back. 

 

Horne-Francis is the most universally agreed Number 1 pick since Scully

Not sure about that, I think every club would've taken Walsh and Rowell, where as Daicos is absolutely right there with JHF. If they were both available it would be a really tricky choice. JHF probably gets the edge due to exposed senior form and more x factor. Still, North better man up and bid pick 1 on Daicos.

Yeah true

was a bit of a tongue in cheek comment re Scully 

Read a bit about ruckman Josh Cripps, brother of Patrick. Havent seen much vision, but like the sound of him.

Is he an option for us? Anyone know of his draft range?

Ben Waterworth of Fox Sports with an article on the seven clubs that will play a major role at the AFL Draft in November.

Seven clubs are set to load up at the AFL draft. These young stars can fix their big issues

There’s something weird about the article. 

Numerous draft prospects are mentioned in it but there’s one name conspicuously missing. Mac Andrew.

Why would that be?

Those 7 clubs dont need a high risk long term development player which is what Andrew is

They need on ballers with immediate impact

Andrew will be available late second round early third in my opinion due not to his qualities but more to do with club needs

This Ben Waterworth who put Andrew in his top 10?

Interesting that they have us taking Roberts at 17 but then follow that with Mitch Knevitt going to brisbane with much better stats and better write up than Roberts.

Was told in grand final week that the club have put a lot of time into Mitch Knevitt. 

I don't follow the draft so i don't know anything about him but he's the only name I've had mentioned to me aside from Woewodin JNR.

If we draft him, I'd like to nominate "Evil" as his nickname.

Knevitt seems to be projected to go anywhere between picks 15-30 (such is the evenness of the middle parts of the first round onwards). He seems very much like a Goodwin/Taylor player. Big bodied inside mid, but apparently also quick.

https://afl.draftcentral.com.au/player/mitchell-knevitt/

 

Yes definitely will appeal given his size and pace.  Knevitt would probably appeal to the Cats at pick 22 if he lasted that long. It might be another chance for the Dees to get Chris Scott angry 🤣🤣🤣

I don't love that tape at all. Seems to rush a lot of his disposals and doesn't play with any power, he doesn't use his speed to take on tacklers and doesn't hold the ball to release runners. A couple of good quick handballs but a couple of panicked turnover ones too. More of a Setterfield or Cale Morton type from that viewing. At that size and athleticism there's plenty to work with but there's also a lot of work to do!

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
