The Cameron Nairn Thread
because the draft process is about selling hope it's always upside, particularly when talking about 17-19 year olds it's not like the american college system, where players are (less frequently these days) becoming professional players at 22-24 after 4 or so many years of playing at semi-professional college levels not to mention that in the draft process you've got clubs, players, managers, family, junior clubs, school contacts, etc. etc. all available to 'mine' for information - that's why the order is, more or less, known about a week before the actual draft begins, certainly for the top end players

Bailey Laurie to half-back in 2026?
unlikely, i would think too slow both in speed of foot and in decision making too small to make any aerial impact or in physical size to lock down on a player his disposal is routinely pretty poor he seems to be an inside mid who we've tried in multiple roles - small forward, high half forward, wing - but who really can only perform as a starting mid, and at afl level he's behind at least a half a dozen other players on the list for that role my expectation is that he won't be on an afl list after his contract with us expires
