2014 draft watch

[Bulldog Revolution]

Re: 2014 draft watch

For what it's worth, I did a rough draft the other day.

26 - Daniel McKenzie
27 - Ed Vickers-Willis (Oscar McDonald)
39 - Lukas Webb
45 - Dean Gore
46 - Ben Edwards

I hereby appoint you head of recruiting - I like the mix of types - most appear good users by foot, hard not to love a few lefties

Re: 2014 draft watch

quite randomly. I saw Ben Edwards walking down Rundle Mall yesterday. If that's not a sign, i don't know what is!

Re: 2014 draft watch

Where has the Ben Edwards movement suddenly come from?

I was wondering if anyone would pick up on the left footers

Pace (McKenzie, Gore, Webb?), Left footers (McKenzie & Webb), willingness to work both ways, and good overhead (McKenzie, Vickers-Willis) was my observation of GVGjr criteria (McKenzie, Vickers-Willis, Gore, Webb)

Factoring in 2x rookie upgrades who will get delisted to accommodate?

I also think 45 + 46 are too higher picks to use on rookie upgrades so some room is going to have to be made.

Re: 2014 draft watch

Blaine Boekhurst is getting some good reviews. I think he is 21 so might fit that slightly older more mature option.

Matt Panos

Another big bodied midfielder would be invaluable. Who'd have thought it'd have been Panos?

Re: 2014 draft watch

Will be interesting to see if he's picked up. Always been a smart player with good skills, but has he improved his endurance and pace? Hard to see him having an impact unless both of those areas have improved a fair bit.

On SEN they have an AFL show on Sunday evenings and someone called in asking Brett Anderson who the Dogs might target. The names of Vickers-Willis and Webb were mentioned as being around the pick 26 and 27 mark.

Did he mention other names? Such as the ones he put in his phantom draft?

I didn't listen to a lot of it but the 2nd question sent through was asking who the Dogs would target at 26 and 27? I was surprised he called Vickers-Willis (he names as one of the smartest kids) and then Webb.

He talked a bit about the top of the draft order and said Collingwood would jump at McCartin if he was still available.

Touk Miller might have been listed as a possibility for us.

Re: 2014 draft watch

Like the look of Viojo-Rainbow. Kicks around corners but its a good kick. Reminds me of Harbow.

Any chance he could be in the mix for one of our picks?

I don't rate him that highly but I agree he has some eye catching traits. I would only consider him at one of the last picks.
