OK, we know we are only using three picks in the National Draft.
Who do you THINK/KNOW Francis Jackson should/will select and what position?
Pick 12 <player> <position>
Pick 50 <player> <position>
Pick 66 <player> <position>
Selecting a player at 50 and 66 is tricky obviously, so let us see who can get the positions spot on!
:gotigers
Edit: Our last 'live' pick has been updated to pick 66.
-
are we getting matt thomas. if so you can discard pick 68.
-
Heard we may even take Thomas as high as 50 - which would be absolutely ludicrous. Hack's barely worth a late rookie pick.
Also don't be surprised if 68's just an upgrade for Darrou.
IMO, Crouch/Jones, Thomas, Rookie Upgrade would by like a bad flashback to those cherry ripe, locked and loaded days of yore under previous "list managers" the likes of which we all hoped we'd never see again.

Fact :lol :lol
-
Lol we haven't even discussed Thomas as a club. :lol
-
I've heard that if Lennon has gone by 12, we'll take Thomas with 12 and elevate Brad Miller and Tristan Cartledge to the senior list.

:lol
you have good ears Wayne

There's some gilt-edged mail right there! :lol

It is now looking like pick 12, 49 and 56 according to the latest draft pick standings.
Rookie elevations start up around pick 49.

Woah. 49 and 56 could be anything :shh

Tristian Cartiledge is such a cool name

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2013-11-12/draft-order
We have the last 'live' pick at 66 in the draft.
As you say wayne, our last two 'live' picks are more like 49 & 56 when you take out all the rookie elevations and zone selections.

Phantom Draft: November Edition
by Paige Cardona
scpaige.com.au
November 14, 2013
Full phantom draft: http://www.scpaige.com.au/phantom-draft-november-edition/
Our picks ....
Pick 12 – RICHMOND
Ben Lennon
Club: Northern Knights
D.O.B.: 5.7.1995
Height: 188cm
Weight: 77kg
Position: Medium Forward/Utility
Plays Like: Dayne Beams
With talent like this available, Ben Lennon will not get past the Tigers here at pick 12, which is an absolute gift at this selection. Lennon initially trained with Richmond for a week earlier this year, as part of his AFL-AIS club placement, and the Tigers were immediately impressed with what they saw, however believed they would not be in the draft earlier enough to see him return to the Tigers once more. Lennon however, is the best offensive player in this year’s draft pool, and offensive weapon who is as dangerous as he is damaging – Lennon is an extraordinary talent. Although he’s had his critics, Lennon has saluted and executed everything asked of him this season, in what has been a demonstration of his character, work ethic and desire to compete at the next level. In the past Lennon has been comfortable off half forward, where his speed, agility and incredible marking game and a long, long penetrating kick have served him well, recruiters dared him to take his game to the next level and push up into the midfield, and towards the end of the TAC Cup season, Lennon didn’t disappoint. The move did Lennon wonders, averaging 28 disposals and two goals a game, it bought out areas of Lennon’s game that perhaps hadn’t been exposed, such as his vision, awareness and ability to really link up and prove a damaging kick going inside 50. Lennon’s strengths are his kicking and his marking, and he’s also been discussed as a player who can play a variety of roles, even off half back where some recruiters really fancy him. Lennon’s versatility means that he could prove to have some serious x-factor. He offers excitement, passion and can really turn the momentum of games with one act of brilliance. Lennon was also a three-way joint winner of the clean hands test, and rated highly in the kick rating testing at the combine, whilst also averaging 28 disposals playing for Vic Metro in the championships this year.
Other Prospects: It’s really a best available basis here for Richmond, and they’ll get their hands on one of the top 10 sliders, which looms to be Lennon. Christian Salem was originally thought to have been available here, but that looks to have diminished. Some recruiters believe that Matthew Scharenberg or Marcus Bontempelli could be available at pick 12 – which is hard to fathom given their high interest further up the pecking order.
Pick 50 – RICHMOND
Riley Knight
Club: Woodville West Torrens
D.O.B.: 27.3.1995
Height: 180cm
Weight: 72kg
Position: Medium Midfielder/Utility
Plays Like: Kieran Harper
Riley Knight’s appetite for the ball almost goes unmeasured, in that he just knows how to hunt and attack the ball, always moving into the best places. More of an outside player than anything, Knight is a classy goal-kicking midfielder who has some toe. Brilliant two-way runner, Knight racks up a lot of the ball, and uses it effectively, and has a huge desire to lay plenty of tackles. He’s got speed and endurance, but I get the feeling he might do a Nick Graham and slide into the third or fourth rounds despite being rated higher. Knight has some serious toe and agility that would be more than welcome at Richmond.
Pick 66 – RICHMOND
Will Maginness
Team: Oakleigh Chargers
D.O.B: 13.1.995
Height: 182
Weight: 75kgs
Position: Medium Midfielder/Forward
Plays Like: Jarrad McVeigh
Although slight, Will Maginness’ commitment to the cause cannot be questioned; his courage, hardness and ferocity at the ball is what makes him really stand out. The Oakleigh Co-Captain has had a good season at TAC Cup Level in between APS commitments and the National Championships, and has been the cornerstone of the Chargers’ year, despite not making finals. Although not quite an inside midfielder, Maginness is a stoppage specialist – his clearances and pressure acts make him a terrific prospect at the draft table come November. Maginness offers plenty on the outside, especially off a half back where his line-breaking runs cut through the opposition, taking the game on – Maginness can really fire his team up, and ignite his side with some inspirational run-and-carry. Not to be underpined as a one-dimensional player, Maginness has shown enormous ability to play in a number of roles, excelling off a half back flank, and resting forward where his ability to play as a defensive forward, yet can still offer a minor ability to kick goals.

Would like Richmond to take Jansen at Pick 50.
Jared Jansen
Another big bodied 18 year-old, who is right to go for round 1 next year in Jared Jansen. Jansen – best described as a raging bull -will make the transition into a permanent midfielder with an insatiable appetite to hunt the ball and throw his weight around. Jansen thrives on the contested ball, and is a pressure player who doesn’t stop in his attack for the sherrin, unless he gains position. Dirty if he doesn’t stick a tackle, Jansen is a players player, and reminds me a lot of Jobe Watson.
-
Would like Richmond to take Cameron at Pick 66.
Charlie Cameron
Cameron is physical and unforgiving and really prides himself on his high work rate and defensive pressure and one percenters that otherwise don’t count on the stats sheet. Cameron is best described as bull-at-a-gate small forward, he pounces on anything that hits the deck and loves to set upon the ball carrier, wrapping him up in a hard tackle or doing enough to force the ball out of his possession to put his team into attack. What you get with Cameron is a player who really gives multiple efforts, yet makes the most of his opportunities when they arise. Cameron is quick, clean and can sink goals from the tightest of angles.

Rookie at best i reckon

Whatever happens with our later picks, it's going to be a bonus if we find a long-term AFL player. Our record even over recent times has been non-existent with only Arnie remaining on our list.

60. Carl Petersen
73. Andrew Collins
2007:
51. Dean Putt

2013:
50: ?
66: ?

That's why I think we should draft Richard Bourne. He has more talent than any of those listed but people here are worried about his weight! I'd rather draft talented guys that can kick and run and have footy brains but who weigh less than big guys who will struggle at VFL level. Look at Brad Hill etc. Hardly man mountains! They are successful because they can find the pill and evade their opponents!

That's why a lot of people think Fine Eyes is stuffing ass
Most 13 yr old bigfooty posters like Mrakov could successfully pick first round winners, it's after the first round that yo need to earn yr mo

iits why some of us think state leaguers are better options late in the draft.blokes like fuller, sully geez fuller at 50 you wont get a better kick out of the 18 yr olds sully at 68 would address kpd shortcomings and he will perform a role and give something you cant say that about 18 yr olds taken late most never play a game or are delisted after 2 yrs.

I agree with you here claw. I would prefer to use our last pick in this fashion
-
The way some people describe these late picks makes it sound like no matter who you take you're going to get a winner :help
-
The point is that anything after pick 20 or so is choock lotto, or as billy Beane described it, a stuffing craps shoot.
One of the cornerstone policies of money ball was not to draft kids, but college ball players. With kids you had to try to predict what they would become, but with college players you could start to see what what they actually can do.
If you try to convert that literally to our system that would mean taking lots of state league players, but the problem is the differences are too vast to make that literal comparision.
We have such a smaller talent pool to start with and with the number of kids taken in the draft it means that very few kids with any chance of making the grade will not be drafted. We basically strip the tree bare. Nor do we have any real alternative for these kids. They dont have the opportunity to forgo the highest league and set themselves up with an career alternative to sport, while still having a pathway to that highest level in the sport, as the American college sports system allows.
The number of players who slip through the draft, or get drafted but then delisted, yet will still go on to become decent long term AFL footballers is always going to be quite small.
Either way, later draft picks will always be more miss that hit. The one advantage of mature state leaguers, i suppose, is that you will know sooner rather than later with them.

while i agree with this one point i disagree with is its chook lotto after pick 20. we have had this debate a few times and i would highly value any pick from 1 to 40, and if its a deep draft any pick in the first 3 rounds say 1 to 50.
ive often espoused when taking state league players that they meet some pretty basic criteria.
1/ they have good skills all the basics in place.
2/ they have the physical attributes to play at the afl level.
3/ they have shown thru performances that they are up among the better players at their club and in their league. you can gauge this by simply perusing b& f finishes and roles they play.
finally the amount of state league players who actually contribute to afl sides when taken is staggering . as opposed to skinny kids who in the main last ywo yrs and never play a game.
we arent chasing champions with these picks but good solid contributors who at the least can make a contribution.
the other area i think we are remiss in is targeting opposition players who arent getting a game usually rookie listed players because of a lack of opportunity, mainly because they have two or three real good players in front of them. ie sinclair and lycett at wce both are trying to force their way past nicnat and cox surely one of em would be a possibility to nab with the right offer.
jacobs was a prime example of this.
im even for taking other clubs rejects just as long as they meet the skillset requirements and have the physicall attributes. have performed okay when given games. its usually blokes who have struggled thru injury or just cant break into a strong line up.
the reasons i dont want matt thomas are his skillset theres better skilled state league players. the other is his performances at afl level over 7 yrs. continual poor disposal an inability at the level to find enough ball. 7 yrs is enough opportunity imo. hes been tried at the level for a long period and been found wanting.
would rather give a state league player the opportunity to show he belongs. a state league player who ticks some pretty basic boxes thus maximising the chances of finding a reasonable player.

Houli, Grigg, Maric, Hampson, Knights. How many do you want us to target?

Bontempelli won't be there for pick 12...
I would be happy with Salem or Lennon (both have skills they we need)...
But just in case how about:
12 Blake Acres
Acres is the modern-draft prospect. He's tall, quick, agile, can jump, mark and kick, and play nearly any position on the ground. Problem is that he's barely played this season, after a shoulder injury ruined his year and forced him into surgery. In nine games at colts level for West Perth, Acres played as an inside midfielder and averaged 27 disposals.
50 Dwayne Wilson
Has explosive leg speed and agility. A prolific ball-winner with clean hands and excellent disposal by hand or foot. Sums up the situation well and loves to take the opposition on. (with his speed he would be a good replacment for Matty White)
66 Willie Rioli
Very clever half-forward from the Northern Territory who played the majority of his football at South Fremantle this season. A cousin of Hawthorn's Cyril Rioli and former Essendon star Dean Rioli, his vision and ability to finish make him damaging in front of goal. He kicked 36 goals in 11 matches for Souths' colts and reserves teams this season. He is damaging on both feet and is regarded as an elite kick and decision-maker. Boasting talent to burn, he does not need much of the football to have an impact on games. (he won't be a starter for 2014 but he would make a wonderful investment for 2015)...
We would have 78 and 88 with 93 to elevate Pettard...
-
Claw, im not sure debate is the correct word to describe previous discussions about the merits of picks after 20. you have never really given much as to what you base your opinion on, except perhaps more of your opinion, nor have you ever argued as to why what i base my opinion on is wrong.

Its interesting to look at the make up of last years premiership side.
6/24 (1/4) were recruited from other clubs.
of the 16 drafted by whorethorn themselves;
9 (over half) were top 20 picks - 5 of which were top 10
4 10-20
1 20-30
3 30-40
2 40 plus with 66 being the latest pick.
1 rookie draft
of these later picks, 2 were mature age players from state leagues.
so 3/4 of the team were either recruited from other clubs or were top 20 draft picks

We line up pretty well with that structure.

Top 20 picks: Deledio, Cotchin, Riewoldt, Martin, Ellis, Conca, Vlastuin, Vickery, Rance (9)

were just that one state league mature player short.

an interesting thing to do would be look at freo the r/u after all it took two teams to make the day.
hmm 22 players on each side g/f day.
3 from other clubs dawson, mcpharlin, pearce.
2/ 1 - 10. pavlich, hill
2/ 11 - 20. fyfe, mundy.
2/ 21 - 30. ballantyne, suban.
just 40% of their team thus far.
3/ 31 - 40. clarke, mayne, mzungu.
4/ 41 onwards. crowley, neale, sutcliffe, walters.
6/ psd/rookie. barlow, deboar, duffield, sandilands, spurr, johnson.
60% taken after pick 30. of which 6 are state league picks. and theres 7 state league players all up.
if freo relied on players from other clubs and top 30 picks they would never make finals yet alone go close to winning a gf.
it all just goes to show there is not just the high pick route to building. its all about utilising all areas and all opportunities.
we can ignore this but if we do we will always struggle.

yeah, it is all about utilising all areas. I was curious about freos makeup, i just hadnt the time or inkilng to look at it just yet.
Sydneys would be another worth checking out, and probably st kildas from their runners up years.
Just a question claw, if we had lost a grand final with that sort of difference in the make up between our side and the premiers, would you be lauding our success with later picks, or bemoaning how our poor strike rate with early picks cost us a premiership?
After all, as you say, getting the early picks is easy......
-
Rhetorical ey?
-
lol al. why would i answer any question you pose yet alone, as 2011 says a rhetorical one. when all i cop from you is smart arse cynicysm and usually out right point scoring exercises. ffs your a bloke who brings up 12month old posts and represents them out of context.
anyway in answer against better judgement i think freo lost the gf because not enough of their better picks have made the grade yet or were injured probably about 10 top 40 picks. yes quality or lack there of cost em.
if i was a freo supporter id be critical of a lot of their top 40 picks. but id not be righting too many of em off just yet.
i certainly applaud what they have done with mature state league picks late nd and in particular rookie picks. these picks alone see them where they are and in front of us and most other clubs.
i will add a proviso here though. they do have a better insight to wa players and most of the late nd state league and rookie picks are from wa. imo wa players are the most underrated in the country.
as i said its about getting all aspects of drafting as right as possible. nothing more nothing less. get the balance right and follow good processes.
-
i've already agreed about getting all aspects correct claw.
The point is, that while Freo have done better than most with their late picks, their strike rate with the early picks has been very ordinary of late.
as for cynicysm, its really only combating cynicsm with cynicsm, isnt it. ? as you admit it was a rhetorical question, there is little doubt that if it was Richmond in that situation you would be concentrating on the negatives rather than the positives.
lol at the Lonegan quote being out of context

what is hilarious is whoever Richmond seems interested in one week is favourite to go earlier the next phantom draft guess lol

Emma Quayle this arvo was asked about our pick 50 ...
