I’m hoping the Crows are settled on Draper so we don’t have to worry about missing out on Langford Richmond’s interest in Allan is the potential curveball for our second pick though Do they jump on him at 6 if they think Smilie slides? Do they try and trade for one of St Kilda’s picks to jump ahead of us? If Allan is gone but Tauru is available do we end up with Langford and Tauru instead? Lots to play out

Langford and Allan again Seems to be firming as the most likely outcome, with Langford and Lindsay another likely pairing

It probably doesn’t factor much but I do wonder if Lindsay’s connection to Mentha through Gippsland could make it more likely we take him?

I’ve long loved the Langford Lindsay double so I’d be thrilled with this I still rate Allan too though, so either of them alongside Langford is a massive win

I’ll tell you on Thursday #whatdidheorder?

Funny as I’m actually expecting some good mail around that time too #watchthisspace

Crows taking Langford at 4 and Richmond taking Allan at 6 is doomsday scenario for us

If one of Richmond or Saints take Allan I reckon he slides to us Something like 6 Allan 7 Smilie 8 Travaglia 9 Tauru

Allan is very quick and rated very highly at the Combine for endurance, agility and his leap Langford is slower but tested well for endurance and is very strong, smart and clean with his ball use Despite being the same size they actually have very different but complimentary profiles

Tomorrow night I believe Now I have a whole new Phantom Draft to worry about…

Just dropped to my knees at Gosch’s Paddock and cried tears of joy Thank you Cal - Langford and Allan will do just fine

Thanks BLWNBA - any sense of who we would prioritise should Langford AND Tauru be available at 5? Say if North takes FOS and Adelaide take Draper

WHERE IS THE PHANTOM DRAFT CAL I CAN’T TAKE IT ANYMORE

This would be a great scenario for us My worry is that Langford will be off the board at 5 so I’m desperately hoping the Crows take Draper and he falls to us If so it’s very plausible that Tauru is still available at 9 as I’ve heard no links to him going to Richmond at 6 or to Saints at 7 and 8

Cal Twomey save us

I like Tauru but I don’t like him when there is a gun midfielder on the board at 5 While I prefer Smith and Langford, Draper performed almost as well as these two this year and I’d be massively dissappointed if we overlooked him here

The potential for that first scenario scares me

Thanks for that Gator - interesting though that we’d take Allan who arguably has more knocks on his kicking than Draper

Curious if that’s the case - I have him ranked third after Smith and Langford (excluding Ashcroft) I think those four have been the most consistent and are the most bankable at AFL level - would be disappointing not to grab any of them

Surely we wouldn’t pass on Draper at 5 if Crows take Langford? 😱

Langford at 5 and one of Allan/Tauru at 9 would be ideal No Tauru at 5 though pls

I had the same thought I hadn’t watched much of FOS because I always assumed he’d be gone before our pick, but after watching some highlights I have to say I was underwhelmed He clearly has some elite athletic traits and class when in space, but I also saw a lot of up and under kicks and some hacking it on the boot in congestion I don’t want to be too harsh on the kid, but if it’s between him and Langford I’m on Langford all the way

Intel @BLWNBA?
