its not really a phantom draft if you have spent the week just directly asking the clubs who they are going to pick
More clubs should be like Sydney and not let him know what they are going to do.
Higgins gets fit and slims down in the pre season but unfortunately loses that during the season proper!

If anyone wants to run a cheese-grater over their nads and then sprinkle some lemon and salt on them here is an article on our top 10 drafting.

It would make it more interesting if you could live trade the kids on the night.
Not sure Max has it in him to be scary or intimidating. He's got that racehorse build, like Rooey. He's the type of guy to develop boobs and a vestigial tail by taking 'roids rather than developing shoulder boulders...so perhaps better to leave him galloping wild and clunking marks.
Isn’t this a few days old?
Rooey in second half of 08-09/10 was built like an Adonis.
There’s no way Curtain makes it past Pick 5.
That from my seat is what I see. For both of them their best is great. When on in the same game it is enticing. Unfortunately they both go missing too often. Higgo's pressure rating puts him behind Butt's.
Charlie Edwards has stormed up the rankings since the season ended.
Curtin is a beast. 197cm doing the things he does as a midfielder on top of his defensive work, he looked like a one man show for WA carrying the side. I think he could be the best of this draft.
Bloody hell, the idea of Max bulking up to G-Train levels is so tantalising, you just pray he is motivated enough to make that happen. I guess I'd be happy if he ends up with Joe Daniher style build, which seems more his destiny.
Edwards and Delean for first two for me*. At the picks we have they seem a fair and reasonable swing for the fences with need. sure in 5 years we should have done something else but at pick 13 (16ish) and 21 (24ish) you can't hang your recruiters.
The Sydney and Adelaide picks just before us are the ones I’m concerned about.
Another Dougal Howard...nah, one's enough hey!? No, I misspelled. Bullocking is what I meant.
Reckon Adelaide will take whatever Essendon leave them out of Leake and Windsor. O'Sullivan would be their no.1 target but he will be gone already. Rumours they could trade up.
is all on his own providing the run from back half. Hardeman would be a great pick to support their average backline and he has aerial ability. Murphy most logical for Swannies but seems a stretch for Swans to call his name out that early.
A bit of ducks and drakes happening behind the shadows me feels, particularly Hawks who are synonymous with last week meetings and throwing the scent a bit. Wouldn't say the news means it's a fait accompli.
They are small forwards, hardest position on the park to play, as their play is dictated by the full ground defense and backline structure of the opponent, and reliant on our offense ball movement being able to overcome this.
