Twomey's Draft Update

Post: # 1767219Post tedtheodorelogan2018 »

Cal Twomey's Phantom Form Guide: November update - http://m.afl.com.au/news/2018-11-16/cal ... e-november

All stars and planets seem to be aligning to Max King. Smith or Rozee next in line?

It is not a Phantom Draft (that will come next week), and nor does it take into account where bids will come on father-son or Academy prospects. It is simply our take on who the best players are based on what we've seen and what we project they'll become.

Taken as a direct quote from the article.

Father son and academy shouldn't effect picks 1~4 but you are right it is only a ranking of players nor does it factor in club needs

You tell me Dragqueen. King is apparantly the front runner. 15? More like down to another 2-3.

Not sure man, I don't have any inside word on this draft so I won't make any stupid definitive statements... guessing Smith for our needs.

So King is the front runner, but you've also said it will be one of rankine or smith... maybe you should throw Walsh, rozee, luko and a couple of outliers into your definites too.

Forget needs, that is how we ended up wasting pick no 1 on Paddy McCartin.
We need a forward to replace Riewoldt.
McCartin is the best forward in the draft lets pick him.
Dumb, dumb, dumb.

PIck the BEST available player every time.
Over a number of drafts you will end up with an even mix.
If not you have top notch players you can trade for needs.

We don't just need midfielders, we need an entire team, not one of the present crop is elite.

If you can be bothered to dig through his posts, I think youโ€™ll find that thatโ€™s more or less happened
