WDRT - Pick 8 - AFL DRAFT

[bulldogtragic]

Tuesday 14th November:

Pick 1 - LDU (Obtained 50% of WDRT vote of the poll of 5 options)
Pick 2 - Rayner (Obtained 64% of WDRT vote of the poll of 5 options)
Pick 3 - Dow (Obtained 71% of WDRT vote on the poll of 5 options)
Pick 4 - Stephenson (Obtained 82% of WDRT vote on the poll of 5 options)
Pick 5 - Brayshaw (Obtained 50% of WDRT vote on the poll of 5 options)
Pick 6 - Fogarty (Obtained 58% of WDRT vote on the poll of 5 options)
Pick 7 - Cerra (Obtained 66% of WDRT vote on the poll of 5 options)
Pick 8 -

Now for pick 8 today. You can use the poll, or post information to persuade others why your pick 8 player should be the selection. This is for the best available player, leaving the club's actual order/picks out of the process. If your previous nomination missed out, you can renominates them if you wish.

Over to you:

I went with Clark - sounds like a tough player with good skills. Would be great if there are a few KPPs picked in the real draft before 9 so hopefully he (or another like him) slides to us.
Bonar probably would have been my next pick, but I've gone for a safer option in Clark.

Nick Coffield for me. Excellent defender and can move into midfield roles down the future.

Re: WDRT - Pick 8 - AFL DRAFT

i agree with Coffield. Of the players to choose from he is the safest bet to be a quality 200 hame player. I reckon top 10 picks need to be used on these types rather than high risk/high return types.

I’ve gone with Clark.

I think he’s good inside and out and uses the ball well, albeit a little inconsistently.

Naughton for me. Like him as a player and think he is best available at this pick

Its getting interesting - and you can see we will have plenty of options at 9 to select a very promising kid

Yep. This vote is clearly the most open so far. On best available, some KPPs might have claim soon on our 'best available' order.

I have stuck with Bonar, but many good options available

Coffield for me - but I am a big fan of Clark.

I picked Coffield, Bonar was very tempting though.

How do you think he compares to Young, insofar as how they may both develop over time?

Re: WDRT - Pick 8 - AFL DRAFT

All of the first 7 picks were 50% or above. Looks like the field is splitting hard now with a three player tie so date.

It's a good question. I think Naughton is a more natural defender, from what i have seen of him, he picks his spots well, times his spoils and intercepts well. To me Young was positive but has a way to go to make it as a defender, he got lost in the contest far too often and his ball use cost us plenty in terms of scores against. It's a good comparison but to me Naughton is a better prospect

3 way tie. Any last minute votes?
