Reckon you guys will go after Noah Bradshaw as a F/S? Player as an overager but has come on in leaps and bounds this year in the NAB league. Good two way runner and very physical. Really good hands in tight and his kicking/decision making has improved out of sight compared to last year.

As an overager, is he still available as a F/S or just thought the open draft?

Still available as a Father Son, provided he nominates us

Certainly think it's a possibility.

A father son haul of Ashcroft, Fletcher & Bradshaw would be pretty damn impressive!

also pretty damn expensive on points as well though.

Levi in the Vic Metro U16 team.

Interesting that the Northern academies are competing independently, rather than their being state squads.

Good chance for GC locals to watch the Lions academy and VIC Metro at Metricon.

Where do you think Levi is projecting Briz? Is he anywhere near as good as his older bro?

No idea at this stage.

From the little I’ve been told, he’s not as classy as Will.

 

[briztoon]

On the previous Bradshaw discussion. There was no talk at all about Bradshaw being in the frame as a mid season draft prospect.

Unless he specifically didn’t nominate, that indicates to me he’s not seen as a likely national draft prospect at this stage.

If we did draft Bradshaw, we would have a very packed midfield in the two’s.

Sorry can you please move this to the "2024 Draft Thread aka: Another Father Son watch"

Just for the conversation while we wait for anything positive to occur.

Eagles end up with pick 1 or maybe 2. They trade Jackson from Melbourne for that pick or they trade out 1 of their older champions to fuel a re-build for the Jackson deal. Melbourne have a very high draft pick - Does that change the Ascroft decision?

And they lose Brayshaw opening up a spot?

Eagles would be incredibly stupid to trade pick 1 or 2 for Jackson when they have the PSD leverage. Either trade a future 1 (which I also think would be stupid) or split the pick to get multiple first rounders to trade.

Jackson's form this year has been pretty variable, so not sure why I'd be giving up pick 1 or 2 for him without finding a way to use the PSD leverage.

Also - do Melbourne need midfielders? They might prefer to pick a key forward if there is one highly rated enough.

Get McStay for nothing with the $ saved from Jackson
Then get Ashcroft with pick one.
oppps too many footy staff read bigfooty

No team has traded pick 1 since the Fremantle debacle where they missed out on Hodge.

Eagle will snap up Wardlaw in a flash

Leaving aside the merits of this a commitment would have been made one way or the other before the trade period.

Looks good, also has a very late birthday so plenty of development to come in comparison to other members of his draft year

 

[davemc_lions]

really hope Will Ashcroft wants to play with his brother Levi so come to the Lions

 

[Quigley]

Interesting. I had Levi pegged as more of a tough inside type.

Me to.

From what I’ve heard, Metro is deep for inside mids, and Levi isn’t one of the top talents, so he’s asked to play a different role.

Levi is definitely an inside player same with Tom Gross but because they do have the ability to play other positions they do.

Dual position player. Fagan’s seal of approval.
