Swans 2013 Draft Strategy

[ShockOfHair]

Grundy's got another four years in him. We have Sam Reid and Tommy Walsh with not much to do up forward. And AJ and X.

Plus never forget the legend that is LRT - if Inspector Gadget can play till he's 48, so can Lewie.

So I'm not panicking yet.

Joel Tippett is a KPD who could step in and play a role from day 1 for a team. We don't need that.

but he didnt in 2013 - why not ?

everyone has an opinion but i think he is ranked 5 against our top4 kpds

We're picking the twins Pass and Pass

I hear they're better than the Kolodjashnij Brothers and a lot easier to pronounce.

A Club doesn't nominate unless they will be taking a player I thought.

gee i hope that ruckman from tassie that Aliir Aliir takes apart in 2012 on this footage is not Nankervis (who fro memory played two years in a row for tassie) ??

apart from that your could imagine that Aliir caught the imagination of the Swans recruitment staff last year and with his development in size and flexibility now as a back we may have more then some may expect ?

also of note: if these rule changes of reducing interchange start to favour having that mobile 2nd ruckman of 197 to 200cm then we too have great flexibility re his development pathway.......Aliir is a very very good timer of his jumping and tap down work !

I was referring to live picks. Mitchell and Perris were nominated a few weeks ago

Looks like at least 2 different ruckmen vs tassie, wouldn't say he took them apart. There was much more footage of him vs WA at the start. Also Nackers 2013 season was much improved hence finally being drafted.

Yes Aliir will be very versatile i think. Nice timing and vertical leap.

GWS pick Lamb in the PSD. Everyone else passes.

Tippett junior to the Kangaroos.

Cam Wood goes to Carlton but Jolly was not picked up by Essendon as was rumoured, most likely signalling an end to his AFL career.
