Re: 2023 Draft Watch

Espns latest power rankings.

Not great for us really. McKercher at 3 and Watson at 9.

If that plays out, the Dunkley pick will come in at 24. (Pick 17, plus McKay compo and 6 bids).

Surely at this point that's what matters most to us. Also worth noting though the power rankings are not necessarily where they think players will be drafted but who they think are the 'best' right?

A lot will depend on pick swaps and dodgy trades leading to late bids etc

Yep it's a ranking not a prediction. The espn dude hasn't really rated Watson like others have.

Croft 16

That's where he should be.

Re: 2023 Draft Watch

Lual 29

It might happen but I'd be surprised.

Sounds about right. Some had him at 11 at one stage which wasn't right

There might be a couple of clubs keen to pick him but he's going to need a couple of years to be ready for the rigours of senior footy. That alone should make him a latish 1st rounder.

Cal Twomey at last check still has him at 11.

Re: 2023 Draft Watch

Lual 29

Lual seems like the perfect player for our current list holes. Would be great to get him for basically nothing. Hopefully he slides beyond 29.

Lots of Tom Papley in the way he goes about it. Think he'd be an excellent addition if we landed him, but it's still not the player that I'd be willing to use three first round picks on.

I'm not sure you'd ever put 3 first rounds up for any draftee would you? That's a lot for unknown.

Looks a player though. Good hands, good 2nd efforts, clean on both sides.

I wouldn't even trade 3 1sts for pick 1. There surely must be more to that deal.

Re: 2023 Draft Watch

Although I can't find the article now I am sure I read that Watson will miss the draft combine taking place over the next few days.
