2025 AFL Draft

[ajGreen]

Part of me thinks claw was right - Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves, Marcus Krasnadamskis, Ollie Greeves, Tom Burton, Blake Oudshoorn-Bennier, Rory Wright etc. .

Still some highly rated kids available. Maybe we should have cut deeper. Your Smith's. Sonsises. Types.

Then again we already have many 17-19 year olds on the list. Not sure how many you can carry without it being a kindergarten.

Clawski wanted 8 new faces plus. Looks like we will bring in 7 ifmy maths is right.

[ajGreen]

Only, Heatherton, Kickett etc..

[TigerLand]

I'm really happy with the profile of players focussing on pace. We are a slow team. This will help massively.

Clarke was probably our only really quick type that isn't forward of the ball. Maybe Hugo.

So this is great to fill a need of the team. With Lalor and Smillie physically sound, Hotten with agility and silk.

Good rounded midfield.

 I note the footy nerds gave us a b- for our draft. ??

Personally I never thought Hugo was that quick.

Maybe a decent tank etc but never saw him get space on someone the way guys like Bolton do.

What is the bombers zone exactly? They said during the draft yesterday that if CDT’s dad was born outside in Sri Lanka like his grandparents were then he would have been in their academy. So do they just have first dibs on all children of immigrants because that is one hell of a zone if they do.

My current rubbish is now wce getting an additional 4 rookie spots.

How do they get this and Richmond nothing?

When they won a flag only couple years prior to tigers

I don’t think there was too many out of contract out of the fringe players so we couldn’t cut too many more. Not sure if smith was out of contract. Sonsies the one for me, he was out of contract and had a decent crack of it at AFL level although not in his best position.

It isn’t just because of being able to take more players the past few nights, but assuming we take our pick today, it means our list is full and we have no flexibility for a SSP addition or to take anyone in the MSD unless we get a LTI or a retirement (hopefully not).

We could have just paid them out? Or come to an agreement? Ala kosi

[ajGreen]

So...they're all quick?

I didn't know they existed until a few hours ago but -  What I like about Peuker, NRT.

Outside of being fast.

Is they seem to have really good stats; goals, tackles, touches

I’m still not 100% clear on how we got rid of kosi, I just assumed it wasn’t actually a 3 year deal like it was announced when we got him over but more a 2 year deal+ 1 year trigger and he didn’t hit that trigger.

Hopefully improves our speed and tickling . Lost alot of pace when Bolton and Rioli left

Yes we did, but we won more games without them.
