Twomey's Phantom draft revealed. He probably has most inside info.

3, 9, 14, 24.

That's 4519 points after discount. We would need 642 extra points. Too easy :)
So that would mean all four would be first round picks and (I think) automatically get put on three year contracts. Pretty remarkable outcome for our academy and it shouldn't be too difficult for us to trade in the necessary points.

Picks: 24, 26, 27, 32, 36, 38 (likely to use four selections)

The Suns' draft work was largely done in the trade period as they amassed enough points to be able to cover bids for their four Academy players. With those likely to all have come inside the first 30 selections, the Suns will strike pick swap trades with clubs as soon as the draft begins. Pick 24 is set to head to Brisbane for picks 30 and 39, while Fremantle will pick up one of the Suns' second-round selections (38) in exchange for other third-rounders. St Kilda, too, is looking to swoop on pick 27 using multiple picks in the 40s. The Suns will use four picks at the national draft but go into the night with more available picks so they can use the points associated with them. They have committed to re-drafting Sam Day, likely as a pre-season selection, while delisted pair Aiden Bonar (North Melbourne) and Jack Peris (St Kilda) will be train-ons at the Suns if overlooked at the drafts.
 
How good is it we might only have to watch night 1 of the draft

Going to be exciting watching though...
Will there be a bid, they might bid here, the best player on the board is <insert academy player here> and they should bid...
But No BID!!!! How good is that.

And do we boo when a bid is made?
Cause that means we are making the pick and taking an Academy player so we should be happy but I will want to boo for sure since we are using up those points. Confused already.
 
No one has proven anything until they step onto an AFL field.

Jeremy Sharp was a 2 time u18 All Australian and he proved nothing.

These boys should celebrate the achievement of getting drafted and the hard work they and their family have done.

The opportunity to prove themselves starts day 1 of pre-season.

A lot of our senior boys are holidaying in WA

doesn’t leave much left to present jumpers.

Think Touk is the one, unless we get past legend Karmichael
