The 2023 Draft Thread

This year is the year that Cal Twomey will get maybe 30% or less on his Phantom Top 20

It’s going to be so hard to call outside the top 2, especially with all the live trading.

There’s also talk of WC live trading their Future 1st with Melbourne for Curtin if he slides,
Clubs like Essendon trading back if they don’t like their 1st round options.

I don’t think the price that WC are setting for Harley Reid is realistic. Nobody is going to bite.

And does NM really want to take McKercher, given Phillips and Wardlaw are both around that 179cm inside mid type… Do they really need a third midget?

It’s going to be a real connoisseurs Draft

I think everyone should be mindful of this potential bias: the Caddy name.

Try to project in your mind what kind of career Nate will have…and the neurons naturally fire back with file footage of Josh Caddy…but I don’t think there’s a lot of logic behind that.

You could say that about Duursma

I assume we have and will try. But realistically it’s not going to happen.

I can honestly say that in all my time watching Nate Caddy this season I havent once thought about Josh Caddy.

I wonder if we would live trade out of the first round or too its end if our ideal target is gone?

There is more chance of that happening than moving up

Could we not move up a spot or 2 in the first round if we package up pick 9 and one of our second rounders?

I think we’ll take Wilson

No, because there are no buyers for that offer.
Who in front of us wants to give up their Top-10 pick?
The only seller was GC and they already moved back.

Geelong is the only one who might want to move back and they are only 1 place in front of us.

The more I hear of Wilson the more I want him

From my position on the couch Leake could be worth a look.

Perhaps slot into a HBF.

Yep, if one of the top group don’t slip though then Leake is my pick.

Did you think about Caddyshack?

Maybe we need a new draft board, ranking players by a swagger index?

Can I ask why Windsor over Wilson? Is it attributes or EFC list need?
