But he has put out his top 20 rankings which essentially mirrors the draft. I’ll be surprised if someone he rates as 25 two days ago gets picked ten 2 days later

I know plenty have gone into bat here but it literally says it as a disclaimer every power ranking.

'The final Form Guide will be released a week ahead of the draft. Remember, this is a ranking and not our mock draft on where players will be drafted – that will come in draft week.'

Cals eye test and looking at stats, best ons, form, etc. Plenty of people have said clubs rankings are different to the media, and that media ranking doesn't always correlate to AFL. Cal nailed last year until Faull pick then it went pair shaped.

JT must looking at who will become the next Bailey Fritsch ie Nairn.

I dont know if what you posted is deliberate and I normally like your input but you have said I wrote what you quoted. I did not write that and you should check your copy if this is a mistake. If it is not a mistake then it is just BS what you have done. It is easy to check my post.

whoops my bad Damo, my response was to Oxdee, clicked the wrong post to reply to

Apologies

Fritsch was pick 31 not top 10

Good enough to be one though. Especially in this draft

It’s like im living in an alternative universe. Cal Twomey has had an almost 100% rate for years now. That’s even up to the top 20. Very rarely will a pick touted for 25 land in the top 10. Im starting to think dees supporters have had a lobotomy

@Damo

At this point, got to be trolling...

2024. Pick 14 - Jonty Faull. Twomey Nov Phantom 25.

2023. 12 - Gothard. Twomey Nov - 28.

      16 - Green. Twomey 25

      2022. 16 - Rowston. Twomey 30

            17 - Michalanney. Twomey 25

            2021. 18 Sheldrick. Twomey 35

                  17. Brown. Twomey 23

      Nairn from 25 drafted at 12 is entirely in line with results that happen all the time.

Gothard was at least 21 in ‘rookie me’

Rowston was 19 in the espn phantom draft.

All of the above picks are with 5-10… you are expecting Nairn to go almost 15 spots higher than anyone has him?

Yep, clearly a troll now.

Horrible attempt at trolling. Cal has written this in the same thing oxdee is quoting from his FORM GUIDE

Where does he go? Nairn is shaping as an early call and is in the sights of Melbourne with its top-10 selections. Other clubs in the teens, such as the Giants and Crows, would also look at him if available.
