Thought I might just put this in to see what people thought. From the website Superfooty just so you all know (Warning: Only Top 30 listed):

1. GWS

Jon Patton (Height: 197cm, Club: Eastern Ranges)
Everything you would want in a spearhead. Will be a monster.


2. GWS


Stephen Coniglio (182cm, Swan Districts, WA)
Best midfielder in the pool. Can turn a game combining a dash of left-foot magic and blistering pace.


3. GWS


Dom Tyson (186cm, Oakleigh Chargers)
Left-footed midfielder is so clean around the stoppages. Makes brilliant decisions quickly.


4. GWS

Matthew Buntine (189cm, Dandenong Stingrays)
Destined to captain an AFL club, Buntine destroys teams from half-back and can negate opponents of any size.


5. GWS

Will Hoskin-Elliott (186cm, Western Jets)
Bounding wingman is ultra damaging in space. Runs and carries and kicks long.


6. Port Adelaide

Chad Wingard (181cm, Sturt, SA)
The South Australian captain has unbridled courage and boasts a freakish highlights reel.



7. GWS

Billy Longer (201cm, Northern Knights)
The No. 1 ruckman in the draft by a long way, Longer's expert tapwork gives his onballers an easy ride in the engine room. Tough call between him and Tomlinson.


8. Brisbane

Adam Tomlinson (194cm, Oakleigh Chargers)
Can play either end, won't stop running and is the key-position talent the Lions cry out for. In GWS mix at No. 7.


9. GWS

Liam Sumner (178cm, Sandringham Dragons)
Breaks lines like Dale Thomas. GWS will need his speed on the outside to compliment Callan Ward and co.


10. GWS

Devon Smith (175cm, Geelong Falcons)
Busy onballer is a master of the forward press. Tackles hard and kicks goals.



11. GWS

Nick Haynes (192cm, Dandenong Stingrays)
Rocketed up the order after repeated bags of goals and glue-laden hands. Tallish wingman/flanker won Dandenong's best-and-fairest. X-factor.



12. Brisbane

Toby Greene (181cm, Oakleigh Chargers)
Lions see him as their next Simon Black. Tough midfielder with eagle-like vision. So agile around the stoppages


13. GWS

Taylor Adams (181cm, Geelong Falcons)
Giants love the hardened midfielder's leadership. Big contested ball-winner will push forward.



14. GWS


Hayden Crozier (184cm, Eastern Ranges)
Raw, but Giants warming to the athletic thrill package with a trick bag as large as Andrew Krakouer's. Daniel Markworth also linked here.


15. Richmond

Shane Kersten (191cm, South Fremantle, WA)
Bustling forward gives Tigers a third marking option in attack. Exceptional kick and ready now.


16. Fremantle

Clay Smith (180cm, Gippsland Power)
A wobbly kick, but Smith tackles like a bull and can release explosive teammates by hand and boot goals. Ross Lyon loves his type.



17. Western Bulldogs

Sam Kerridge (188cm, Bendigo Pioneers)
Only come into the Dogs calculations in the past 48 hours after learning Freo want Clay Smith. Bit of a surprise pick but Kerridge is a powerful clearance player with a nice burst of speed. Michael Talia on radar as well.


18. North Melbourne

Sam Docherty (185cm, Gippsland Power)
Dream result for Roos. An elite kick who can nail long-range target and split open presses. Bootsma in the mix.


19. Essendon

Elliott Kavanagh (185cm, Western Jets)
Bombers will celebrate. Got the classy midfielder they were after. James Kelly-type.


20. Fremantle

Brandon Ellis (181cm, Calder Cannons)
Dockers love Ellis who would slot in next season and relish Subiaco's wide expanses. Been told to pack his bags if he slips through.



21. Sydney


Tom Mitchell (180cm, Claremont, WA)
Looks a great get here. Hard ball-winner suits Swans. Father son.


22. Carlton

Jordan Murdoch (Carl) (190cm, Glenelg, SA)
Blues want a pacy midfielder, making left-footed utility Murdoch hard to pass up. Exposed to senior footy this year and can play as a mobile marking target.



23. West Coast

Daniel Markworth (191cm, Calder Cannons)
Another year, another slider for Eagles. Super-quick forward is clean and quick, if not raw. Looks a bargain this late in order.


24. Gold Coast

Josh Bootsma (191cm, South Fremantle, WA)
Another bolter, Bootsma is raw but has speed and, like Dustin Fletcher, long arms and can spoil from anywhere. Elliott Yeo in contention too.


25. St Kilda

Todd Elton (197cm, Dandenong Stingrays)
Saints tipped to want best available key forward. Elton is agile and can play in the ruck. Midfielders will come later.


26. Richmond

Alex Forster (189cm, Norwood, SA)
All-Australian defender is superb by foot. Tigers need some reinforcement down back. Does all the team things.


27. Adelaide

Tom Sheridan (185cm, Calder Cannons)
Crows need to rebuild midfield and have been watching Sheridan for some time. Has a huge tank and excels by hand. Excellent vision in tight spaces.



28. West Coast

Jackson Merrett (187cm, Geelong Falcons)
He's quick, precise, and will bust his gut running hard up and down the wing. Provides outside class. Great character.


29. Fremantle

Andrew Boseley (194cm, Geelong Falcons)
Dockers are thinking about another key defender. This rangy full-back is an accomplished stopper and will provide rebound.


30. Brisbane

Michael Talia (194cm, Calder Cannons)
One of the best key defenders in the draft is sliding. Ready to go and will be capable of tackling AFL gorillas in three years. A steal.
 
Freos first 3 selections all in that top 30, which is how it panned out. I was reading some posts not rating our selections as being particularly good, but those 3 and Lachi Neale all seem pretty worthy choices. Probably what has thrown Fremantle's draft rating was the expectation that we would target talls.
