What a joke the draw is.

 I know with 18 teams it can't be equitable draw.

But at the absolute minimum in the 1st 17 rounds all teams should play each other once

Then you work out the double ups

Thwt we don't play Geelong until round 24 is embarrassing

Ditto the Hawks and Footscray in rounds 19 and 20

Upgraded from the club's rookie list to primary list according to Twomey.

Tassie don’t have any picks next year. They start drafting in 2027 in preparation for their entry to the comp in 2028.

I think what doesn't get mentioned is the amount of injuries young players get nowadays. As good as the crop of players were last year. The top 20 were riddled with injuries here and there. Jagga a knee too.

Trainor only one who avoided any injury and was reported that he was being rested as sub to manage soreness. Again, bad luck but it doesn't look good on the club. In their defence other clubs cop injuries too.

Add Gibcus issues and Clarke multiple knees, bad luck is bad luck but I'm sure there are things within our control that are needing significant improvement.

I'm sorry but Cochrane approval at 17 is a disgrace.

So as it stands

Cochrane Academy
Walker F/S
Tasmania Pick 3
18th place team Pick 4
Tasmania Pick 5
17th played team Pick 6.

Awful for anyone starting their rebuild. History will look back and the decisions of trading Bolton and Rioli for picks will have saved us being bottom 4 for 6-8 years.

Walker and Cochrane maybe best two players in draft.

Source on Smillies injury history in juniors? I can’t see much about him missing many games online.

I know Lalor missed a bunch and probably the most of any of our selections last year with a bunch of different muscle injuries. Hotton missed most of his u18 year with an ACL, Trainor missed some games with concussion and Faull missed a bunch with a back injury.

I think the only ones from last years crop who didn’t have some injury history were Armstrong, Sims and Alger.
