Probably already been posted but Kevin Sheehan link to Draft possible Rucks/Forwards.

Kevin Sheehanโ€™s 2022 NAB AFL Draft Top Prospects โ€“ Tall Forwards/Rucks

Great draft hand next year. Two firsts and 2 seconds. Likely will try to trade up further.

Likely a tall Ruck/Forward this year and next year. TMc, B Brown, Gawn all around 30 plus.

Sure to get Kynan Brown as a F/S mid next year as well.

ย 

Surely we wont be drafting this guy:

Thomas Scully
State: South Australia
State League Club: West Adelaide
Community Club: Lockleys
Date of Birth: 02/11/04; Height: 203cm; Weight: 89kg

A tall forward who had a wonderful start to the 2022 season, with his overhead marking and accuracy around goals earning him a call up to AFL Academy team that represented Australia. He showed glimpses of his sizable potential up forward as a marking target during that match against Collingwoodโ€™s VFL side in May. He booted 50 goals in 14 matches for West Adelaide in the SANFL under-18s, as well as playing one game for South Australia at the 2022 NAB AFL National Championships U18 Boys

From Cal Twomey's phantom the only 2 tall forwards/ruck we could access at around pick 13 would be Jefferson (pick 10) and Keller (pick27).

Should be a few of KPFs around pick 37. Lions have picks just before ours which will be used on their F/S bids.ย  So we will come in a few picks.

No doubt JT and team have their eye on a few. May surprise us and pick a mid???

ย 

I'd like to get Oliver Hollands with our first pick. He won the draft combine time trial with a 2km run in 5 minutes 54 seconds and who knows in a few years time we might be able to lure his brother Elijah back to Victoria to play with his bro. With our second, if any are still available I'd try to get Keeler (ruck/forward), Barnett (ruck) or Verral (ruck/forward).ย 

Now that we have Schache and JVR developing nicely, we don't have an immediate need to get a KPF this year and I just don't trust Jefferson at this stage, he may be a good player in time but I find skinny tall forwards are just serviceable ala Mitch Brown and Watts who were both first round draft picks... but who knows maybe he could be a Gunston.ย

Actually looks like the perfect target with pick 37! He's shown a lot and looks more likely than some other higher fancied tall forward names IMO.

Schach Attack?

Weโ€™ve got someone getting ready to sew a new mini-banner for the cheer squad already with this exact same wording! She misspelled Schache just as youโ€™ve done so I pointed it out telling her that after all, we donโ€™t wanna be confused with the Coll or Ess cheer squads. ๐Ÿ˜

Jefferson, Phillipou, Hustwaite or Hotton plz. May be a bit too early pick wise for Hotton but he will be good.

Itโ€™s a shortening to make it rhyme. Not a misspelling. Schache Attack doesnโ€™t make any sense. Schache Attacky seems too gimmicky. But you might want to hold off just in case we go with Schache down backy or unless itโ€™s a Casey bannerย

Iโ€™m sure youโ€™re joking but we arenโ€™t changing our draft plans based on Le Shach! I have no issues drafting skinny talls, but if youโ€™re skinny you need to be a special athlete and Iโ€™m not sure Jefferson has the speed, height or leap to make up for a thin frame.

Schache definitely isn't the answer to our forward woes, he's just a stopgap solution while we chase a gun forward in the draft or as GNF mentioned we are hunting Mitch Georgiades. But i agree with you on Jefferson, if he has all the tricks to be a gun forward then sure we should go after him but if we have doubts about him then I think we should get best available mid at 13 which looks to be Hollands.ย 

pick 37 will come in slightly you would think as peptides (pick 22) and bears (picks 34-36 inclusive) will all be used up on father-son points

not sure of any academy selection likelihoods

Any chance we package up some future picks to have a crack at the bombers pick 4? I thought I heard it was on the table?

Essendon said theyโ€™d consider moving it but donโ€™t want to go too far down the order.

Which is pretty much what every club says every year.

Weโ€™d have to make them a crazy offer to go down to 13. Iโ€™d be shocked if they moved below 7 and likely not at allย

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmyโ€™s inclusive bannerโ€”"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwoodโ€™s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.ย

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • 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 forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” 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 Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™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 isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™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.
