I suppose with quite a few clubs having multiple picks in the top 20 it is a fair indication that most of these players will be gone by our first pick though. Just glad a few of our favs aren't named!

David.. I dont think "we" have forgotten him , but he and another one I like Cumming... there is uncertainty about their availability. I get the feeling you would like us to at least call his name and make them choose at 24. Id not be against that , he seems to be someone that would fit the profile of our needs. ..but id suspect the same could be said of GWS. If they had lost picks id be more confident that we could snare him or Cumming.

I think the AFL has told clubs they can't pick a player in the top 10 thats not in the room. Hence why Cockatoo was rushed in. They promote the top 10 on stage and the day after in photo shoots.

That can't be true the clubs have to be allowed to change their mind and pick who they want. What would the afl do about it?
If thats true , its utter spin over substance. Invite more kids, make the invite an important recognition or something but dictating a clubs choice based on attendance is a bit off to me.

The clubs are not limited to how many they can nominate to attend they just cant pick anybody they haven't nominated.
For instance Gold Coast may have given the AFL 12 names

On the flip side, it would be tough to receive an invite and have to wait until the fourth round to hear your name called!

This kids reads well but if I remember correctly , when he played at the champs he was sub standard kick. Project player perhaps.

They pick after us
A bit of a bolter to look out for on Friday night is Sturt's Lewis Young. 197cm KPF who is capable in the ruck. Admittedly I haven't seen him live, but looks very athletic on tape and has the required attributes. Played senior SANFL footy late in the season and generating a lot of club interest in the last month.

He won't get that far. Bulldogs at the lowest.
as I posted above ... his kicking looked like it needed quite a bit of work.
Any vision of him freely available?
Bulldogs would be a interesting selection for them. They have a heap of forwardline talent.
Looks very raw. Very low pick or rookie I'd say. His kicking technique as you say needs a complete overhaul.

Keep in mind also clubs are only doing last round of interviews now as they aren't allowed to talk to draftees during exams so some would have for eg given florent on their lists but in the last interviews now he is saying he wants to stay home he will slide in order on draft night but afl wont uninvite him as he has already been invited etc. So the lists are indications but not guarantees esp where clubs have multiple pics it gets tactical.

They havent done that they dont have the power but they want the top 10 on camera so they ask the clubs to submit more than 2 names to cover their bases so to speak to reduce chances of someone getting picked who isnt there.

He wont get that far. Dogs bombers or us.
Sorry missed that. Herald Sun article out today too, so not much of a smoky after all haha.
He is a decent prospect though. His Sturt vision in particular was promising. Very raw.

I thought tigers had 17. My mistake
A short read on Brad Scheer on the afl website. Getting him at 24 won't be the worst thing to happen

Gc will match a bid but i would be happy to bid on him to force them to.
