I’ll keep it simple.

Pick 17 Fremantle - Joe Berry

Best small forward in the draft for me and one I’d happily take earlier than this. I’ll edit in more of a write up later.

Life's funny, in the space of 3 picks I've gone from having my 6th and 11th highest ranked players to my 16th (who I'm not taking), 17th and 19th =(

GWS Pick 18 - Harrison Oliver - Sandringham Dragons | VIC Metro
Small Defender
181 cm

I really liked Darcy Wilmot in 2021 and I see Oliver as a player with many of the same strengths and then some, with his tenacity at the contest and opponent, a well balanced offense and defence game, and deadly left boot, there's really not much to dislike about him as a prospect, and with Perryman leaving over the trade period there's a clear path into the senior side for Oliver when he's ready.

I do love his ability to lockdown but I truly think Oliver is a top 3-5 kick in the draft which is something that will compliment our gameplan long term with his ability to hurt opposition teams in transition from the defensive half.


GWS Pick 19 - Jack Whitlock - Murray Bushrangers | VIC Country
Tall Forward/ Ruck
200cm

Pretty simply the best talent that fits the list left imo, with Hogan growing older getting Jack in now would give us some time to put the required work into his body for him to eventually impact consistently at AFL level. I've been pretty impressed with Jack's improvement through the season in terms of his physicality and all round contested craft, along with his week on week growth in the ruck in the second half of the year.

Also considered; Luke Trainor (don't need another tall defender), Jobe Shanahan

Pick 14 - Gold Coast - Leo Lombard - 179 cm - Midfielder - Suns Academy.

View attachment 2156903

Fast, ferocious, clean, poised, ball winner and very very consistent.
GCS - spoilt to pick him up to add to the plethora of free hits, through their academy program.

Really impressive young player, I haven't seen him play a bad game.

If he was in the open draft, I would almost consider him over Draper, that is how crazy this draft is in many regards. I almost bid on him with Carlton's pick, I think he's a gun.

PICK 23 - RICHMOND - Alex Dodson - 204 cms - Ruck
