Darcy Daniher Draft Dilemma
September 7th 2007 08:49
He won't be one of the early picks, but Darcy Daniher will be one of the most talked about prospects in the draft. This is the first year of teams having to bid for father/son picks. The Daniher situation also is complicated due to the fact that two teams can select him as a father/son pick, Essendon and Sydney.
From The Age: Bidding war looms for Daniher
Daniher will probably get to the club that he chooses, as other teams won't value him too highly, but it will be interesting to see who his preferred club is. At the Bombers he might become a full back, as Essendon have young Gumbleton and Neagle to replace Lloyd and Lucas in the future, so Darcy Daniher might be part of Essendon's back line of the future along with Ryder.
With the Swans, they need some help now up forward and in a few years will have a big need for tall forwards. Hall and O'Loughlin will need to be replaced soon, as will Leo Barry in the back half. The Swans might provide more opportunities for Daniher than Essendon will.
