Surely we don't take River before one of them?

Twomey mentioned that WC might not match if he gets a bid in the ND. He is really good mates with RJH so it would be good to pair them up together!



Nope still available.
is there a reason he has fallen?
 
Anyone knows about this kid for our #54

Sandringham Dragons premiership player Bailey McKenzie produced a couple of the standout performances of this year's Coates Talent League season. He broke out with 23 disposals, 13 marks and seven goals in Round 5, before establishing his credentials with six majors from 20 touches and 11 marks in the preliminary final.
A dynamic 192cm forward, McKenzie is quite rangy and excels aerially. His mobility is handy when leading at the kicker, though he also has the ability to take speccies or improvise one-handed marks. Either way, his pronounced flair and nimble nature points to high upside, particularly given his mercurial ability in front of goal.
While he showed an ability and willingness to work up the ground late in the season, that kind of work rate was not as evident when McKenzie was camped inside 50 earlier in the year and with Vic Metro. Using his athletic gifts up the ground will be important, to compliment his inside 50 craft. He could also become more consistent from quarter to quarter and with his finishing.
DRAFT RANGE: 40-60

A little bit devastated that Kayle went to the Bombers but 100% better than going to Port, so a little bit of relief there, they did well though getting Berry and Jack Whitlock.
For a team that started the trade period with 2 picks, they've done exceptionally well imo

Berry, Jitlock, and Moraes is a very decent haul
