[DQ 4EVER]

Draper in requires a very big shift in Ryan's gamestyle into a role which most people lament him for, which is his speed by foot, so by playing Draper I think will be a net negative in terms of a team aspect. While I agree Draper is a great talent and it would be nice if he plays, there is also major flaws he should work on like his bodywork under a high ball and his engagement with his forward at any time really.

We need rebound more then anything from our D50 and Wagner while errant by foot, provided most of that for us. If we shuffle Ryan into that role it will be long bombs to the corners of the 50 and less drive and dash down the middle of the park. All for the sake of development that Draper can get through the WAFL with no doubt plenty of chances through injury and management.

Draper is just number 1 reserve for all of Ryan, Pearce and Cox.

Could Draper become what was proposed for Chapman, the tall wingman?

I do have a fear Longmuir may have us chipping around down back again if we lose a runner.

Walker and Clark would be the running smalls, Draper and Chapman running talls. Sharp can will back too.

Walker can only be a running small if he gets the ball in hand first since he’s a lockdown defender. If he chases the ball like Clark does and we turn it over his man will have 6-7 every game. Wagner needs to play for that reason

So in a situation where our defenders are playing our forwards, which matchup would Wagner have that allows him to run off?

The one where he plays on switta. Plays up the ground doesn’t hurt you on the scoreboard easy match up
