Why De Goey before Laverde (and others)?
Why Melbourne picking Lever and GWS getting both Wright and McCartin?
Chris, who do you reckon the blues will take with their first four picks (19, 28, 61, 65)?

Hey mate always enjoy your good work especially this time of the year.
Was wondering if there will be an update soon with the draft order now finalised after trade period?

Maybe. I think a lot will depend on what happens with Josh Simpson. Personally, there'd be no question if I was in charge. He'd be getting another year. Clem Smith is probably the one we have our eye on in the second round if it's speed we're after though.
Hi Chris. First of all, many thanks for what you do each year. While I have only joined the forum recently, I've been an avid reader for years and at this time of the year, I'm stalking your posts. It's's a bonus you have good taste in footy teams as well.
Question - With where Freo are at, Lloyd has pretty much confirmed we're looking to only use picks 13 and 34 for new additions to the club which suggests to me a latter main draft (or rookie) pick may be used for re-drafting a delisted player. You obviously rate Simpson highly,per your comment above, so who would you delist if it was you making the call and who do you think the club has in their sights? (e.g C.Pearce, Hannath, Griffin, Duffy) ?
Mmmm wouldn't mind AHern, but would prefer Duggan. He just projects as a better player and I think could transition well to a balanced mid
Chris
A very impartial follower of the game now, but I'm curious as to Langford
He's seems to be clearly " in "everyone's first round, but is rarely talked about. Is that because he's not the standout midfielder or big Kpp.
Doggone ( how ironic my title by the way)
Firstly, I do rate Simpson highly. In his draft year, I rated him a top 10 (even top 5 at times) prospect. And being the draft fan that I am, I will always stick with talent if it were up to me. Obviously it's different when you're actually running a club though, and you can't be having too much off the field drama going on. But, Simpson could be every bit as good as Michael Walters and I'd hate to give up on that.
It's a tough question though, as to who to get rid of. And if I were a betting man, it'd be Simpson with the view of re-drafting him. Personally, I probably would have tried trading either Suban or Clancee. I've seen Duffy mentioned a few times on the Fremantle board, but there's no chance I'd be getting rid of him.
I've got them pretty even, probably Duggan slightly higher. Think maybe the goal scoring ability of Ahern could get him over the line though, and his general x factor would allow the Eagles to draft some midfield size in the later rounds. Plus, ideally Waterman develops into a similar player to Duggan.
I think it could partly be because people are unsure on his position, and others have been more dominant this year. A skinny flanker/midfielder is always risky in the first round, and another reason could be that people don't want to stick their necks out on such a proposition. I imagine actual recruiters though would be quite taken with Langford, due to his measurements, versatility and skill set. One of the things I like most is that he has long arms, and despite his 73kg frame, is quite strong in the hands. Just seems to have that knack of getting a hand in and taking the ball away. He has lots of little things to his game that are difficult to teach.

Great job on covering the draftees so far mate.Hopefully in the next few days, there's an updated first round on the previous page though.
Who knows. Carlton need pretty much everything, which at least means they can just go best available since it will fill a need regardless of who the player is. But otherwise check out the first page, or wait until I update in a few days. Probably midfielders though.
someone finally has the tigers taking a KP player in their mock draft!!
thumbs up!
If Durdin is there I hope we seriously consider itWe will not be taking any KPP, especially with our first pick. You seem quite fixated on the idea for some reason?
