I’m watching the McAuliffe-focused U18 championship games, and one thing about McAuliffe is that he gives away so many free kicks 
Fits right into our side.
In all seriousness, I like that he doesn’t shy away from contests and has high work rate around them. Goes straight in and keeps going. We need youngsters like that, so he looks like a pretty solid pick.
His kicking needs a bit of work though from what I saw.

Wondering the same thing, considering those draft combine results and the highlights package. Maybe the endurance isn’t there alongside the speed and vertical jump.
There’s been some decent inside mids that have slipped in NDs over the years.
Be nice to get a steal.

Guy got some decent numbers playing against men in the SANFL Ressies which is encouraging. Will be good to have a left footer in the guts as well.
Top in both vertical jumps and 20m sprint?
Does he have a Basketball background or something?

Because he's not. That's why he went at 40.
Has some good attributes but like anyone at this level of pick there's a long way to go. His form is against a lower level of opponent and his kicking is a bit sketchy at times.

The General!
Reminds me of Dan Connors when we drafted him.
Hopefully we give him the time to develop and learn in the VFL.
