Ward was the other one that I had come down to today, time will tell
The Luke Jackson conundrum?
In the end, i went for the Rolls Royce over the Muscle Car (and one other) . Covid made the junior form tough to track / evaluate, but Nicks numbers are superior to Rowellās / Walsh . Which is crazy. He continued to perform in the Academy game against Geelong VFL ( the Academy got belted). Buckley was on record last year that Daicos would have played senior footy for Collingwood if allowed, and repeated that recently on radio. He just gets involved multiple times per passage of play. And Macrae seems to want to play him early on across half back, so I may have a DEF qualified ball magnet for a year or two.
I did umm and ahh a little bit. But I kept coming back to those numbers. You probably canāt go wrong with a top pick in this draft, tbh.
Iād be very comfortable taking Daicos with pick one. His numbers are incredible, but heās also going to play behind the ball which is fantasy gold.
I think i would have gone Daicos first. JHF looks like a freak but North have history of bringing through their kids poorly. Daicos was the safe and more likely better pick.
No argument from me but I would have been happy at pick 2 whichever way you would have gone.
Was hoping JHF would slide to 51, back to the drawing boardā¦
Still living in hope of a slider at 10
now iām hungry!
He should be here soon, weāre 6.20CT here, sun is a setting!
Iām going to the gym in 15 mins, then back an hour after that.
If topdon hasnāt picked by then, I expect to get back and cry.
Remember to set your draft settings.
For memory itās better to skip pick and take it when youāre back then to let it auto pick.
I donāt think anyone is interested in Tom Hickey this early in the draft.
Donāt normally fall for the EFC-premium when it comes to FF, but went with Hobbs. A midfield bull that will get his hands dirty (hopefully early in the season). My first three picks were gone. Disappointed to just miss out on Ward (will be a beauty!).
I was going to be happy to take Hobbs at 4 until the weekend when Rachele just screamed pick me. But with him gone it was easy to take Ward over Hobbs purely on the basis he will start round 1.
I was going to go Callaghan then Erasmus and they both went in the two picks before mine! WIll need a few minutes, sorry.
Wouldāve been quite the steal if they fell to your pick
Pick 8. Mad Bomber - Josh Sinn (Port Adelaide)
Could he have a basketball background? I hope so!
