I liked the highlights they showed.
They said he played well in the recent WAFL v SAFL game (24 touches and 4 tackles)

I think we've done well to be honest.

I think The Demons were lucky to get Dunkley. I think the Saints did will with the 19 year old they picked up too.

Bombers selecting a 174cm player when in desperate need for a ruck is very puzzeling. And even more so that fox had no footage of him.

I missed in the stats - how many hit outs does he average?

Who we get is not needless info

What I like is he is 22 and is playing SANFL. I do think the WAFL has the harder bodies, but the SANFL is still a league with big bodies playing.

So far in 2019, he's played 7 games for West Adelaide and has kicked 7 goals.

He's averaging almost 22 disposals this year, so I think we've got a ball winner who can also kick a goal.

Overall, he's played 43 games for 24 goals at West Adelaide.

It'll be an exciting game in the VFL this week, if he is playing of course.

Corey Gault, Bolton, Freeman, McLarty, Kennedy and Manteit all failed to find a new home. VFL player, Hustwaite also didnt have his name called.

They'd be a few disappointed players tonight, especially with a few clubs passing.

Yeah Lowson was tipped to go #1 a few days ago and didn’t end up going at all.

There seemed to be a few names called that no one tipped at all.

I dont know much about Lowson.

Im actually really happy with Nobel. But I'm almost shocked we didnt go for a back up ruck.

But then again, we must have some confidence that Nobel will be retained in 2020 compared to any of the rucks available.

What number will he get?

48 I suppose?

More speed and spread from the contest is one thing required to overcome West Coast.

A player who can impact this season.

If Pickett ticks both boxes he'll do me.

Said that over on bigfooty back in April.

Missed on Pickett but Noble is a type we can certainly use IMO so I totally support the direction we have taken with his pick.

Only time will tell if he can make the grade but he shows promise in his highlights and the intoxicating combination of speed and endurance Hine has mentioned gives him a chance.

While he'll potentially play a different role I think we've looked to gain back what we liked and then lost in Murray.

^ Richmond got Pickett. He is 27 years old and their recruiter said he's a long term prospect.

A very interesting pick I reckon, but to say he is a long term prospect... hmmm.
