Bryce Gibbs (father-son to Adelaide) and Joel Selwood seem to be the ones most likely to be good players. Scott Gumbleton (a CHF) would probably be number 1 at this stage. Lachlan Hansen, Jack Riewoldt and Mitchell Thorp should be in the top-10 mix as potential CHFs.
They plan ahead at Essendon.
Gibbs has to be close to number 1. The kid is a freak talent. Also, from same club, Sellar goes alright, certainly a top 5 pick.
I think you'll find Gibbs misses out on F/S selection by a few games or so. Tough t***ies Adelaide.

Number 1 F-S before Sheldon but not number 1 in the draft.Nightwolf_69 said:Josh Kennedy

If you can play CHF you should normally be able to play CHB. So all of them would be possible.

Lachlan Hansen has probably played more in the backline than any of the others, and I would dare say at this point that that will be his best AFL position.

79Vintage has Thorp pegged as a fullback in his 2006 team and that has been Carlton's biggest weakness since SOS.Carlton need everything but KPP are a bigger priority than a midfielder or forward like Gibbs.Weaver said:

Gibbs isnt eligible for F/S.
nah it wont - why compromise the system to suit just one team - tough luck guys - seriously - i guess youll just have to wait for another one - anyhow im sure that Gibbs will have the go home factor after a few years

Joel Selwood captained the Aus vs Ireland U/17 side earlier this year, didn't he? If so, excellent effort, given he was in the younger batch.

That would be because you have more teams to choose from. Victorian clubs are picking from players that played for them in the VFL competition, which became the AFL.Gets! said:
On the other hand, WA and SA teams are picking from teams that played in different competitions, where if it was only 100 games to qualify, there would be a ridiculous amount of people going father-son.
The bar was set to make the number of players that are eligible for F/S picks roughly equal.
I would say that the amount of players that played 100 games in the VFL/AFL is about equal to the amount of players that played 200 in the SANFL. That is why the system is as it is.
Adelaide have 4 clubs to choose from. It's fair to say the amount of people who play 200 games is FAR less than those that play 100. So it still isn't fair.
PAFC were not eligible to get Ebert under the F-S rule but the AFL didn't pick them up on it, the whole thing is inconsistent and rubbish.
And yes Gibbs will want to come home after 2 years but then we are going to have to give up more than we could have had him for.

It was much easier to play 200 SANFL games than it was to play 100 VFL games. Interstate clubs have much easier qualification rules than Melbourne clubs.

Ohhhh no you just didn't.
OKay lucky I have to go to work now because that post is simply trash.
The two competitions were very comparable! And today the SANFL>>>>VFL
All the ex-victorian AFL club players come to the SANFL to play.
Gets! said:
Maybe today but we're talking the competitions status ten or twenty years ago. Only someone in the advanced stages of a really bad pyschiatric illness would claim the SANFL was anywhere near the quality of VFL footy pre-AFL.
Here's a comparison between the Crows and the Dogs.
Bugger all difference.
