AFL Mid-Season Draft 2023

[Elwood 3184 1,298]

Good luck to the 13 players drafted, but none of the names are exactly jumping out of the page to excite me.

None of the Casey listed (or ex-Casey/ex-MFC) players made it so with apologies for being selfish, that makes me happy that our VFL affiliate hasn’t been adversely affected. On the other hand, a lot of young men who are probably not far off the pace have again missed an opportunity to live their dreams.

Can’t help but feel that we should have made sure we were somehow involved in the MSD. We have a few on the list who look done and unlikely to play a part in future campaigns and should have been trying to do what Collingwood have managed with the likes of Noble and Johnson who have seamlessly come in virtually straight out of the MSD and made them a better team.

I’m not so sure. I would not be surprised if our club recruiters took the view that it was unlikely at our position on the ladder that there was little prospect of our finding suitable players any better than we already have at the club.
