Never really been one to get into the draftees before the night but I do like the sound of Jake Lever. Being a leader down back, he could really learn a lot from Phil Davis. What's everyone else's thoughts?

Pickett's highlights are tasty, if the go home isn't an issue I'd be happy to get him, I've seen it in a few places, but could be just rumour..

Roll it to 1:07 for a freakish run

The ACL worries me, mostly because of Patton, but I am no medical expert, if the club deems him healthy I would back them.
Patfull and Shaw also defensive leaders, it's going to be an interesting dynamic to watch
And if it is just a rumour and he has no issues moving interstate you would have to think pick 4 - Pickett, Pick 6 - Lever, Pick 7 - ?

If Leon was serious about the inside mid than Ellis appears the best?, no way Brayshaw lasts through the first 3 picks
It would be a reach but wouldn't discount Connor Blakely being in the conversation

Pick 4 Peter wright there's a tall pick 6 lever or Goddard both real good outside pace go for Pickett at 7 and 23 Connor Blakey if he is still there

On afl.com.au they said today that if the giants don't pick wright at 4 he could slip out to pick 10 or more

I know this isn't what other people like but I'd be happy if we took Pickett, cockatoo and Goddard.

You guys think you will rookie Logan Austin ?
From limited vision he looks ok.

I've not heard anything, but wouldn't be disappointing if we did..
I'm also thinking Lever is a lock. Shows good temperament/ leadership potential= quality kid. Peter Wright I'm not so sure about, particularly if he's viewed as a long term project player, where his role duplicates Rory Lobb's. Lobb might already be first off the cue for ruckman-switch-forward.
IMO, I'd be picking only one 'project' player, but other picks are kids that are ready to go this year, or at least add to immediate competition for spots.
So in the draft, definitely 1) a defender to keep Plow/Bunts on their toes, 2) a small zippy irritant type forward and 3) the best available kick.

Any chance of you guys taking Laverde at 4 and wright at 6 or 7? Would love it if Collingwood missed out on Laverde. No chance they go for Wright at 5.
I definitely want that but there isn't much love for laverde here unfortunately
Well there is ALWAYS a chance... I mean the is a CHANCE we could pass on pick 7 and not use it at all... But c'mon.
Yeah but they have a bunch of talls that could potentially do that... White for example. Plus Cloke is only 27 not exactly on the way out. I think its generally accepted Collingwood are looking for midfield depth id be suprised of they went tall

Jarrod Pickett - "I don't care where I get drafted just as long as I get picked up. Would be good to get drafted outside so I can get out of my comfort zone".
That's good enough for me, pick him SOS!!

Some very good genes there:
Pickett's grandmother Anne Davis (his dad's mum) had 18 siblings. One of those is the father of Leon Davis, a 225-game player for Collingwood. Lance has about 70 first cousins on the Davis side of his family.
He is also related to Byron Pickett, who played 204 games over 11 years for North Melbourne, Port Adelaide and Melbourne. Lance and Byron Senior's (Byron's dad) grandfathers were brothers.
Once every few years, the Davis clan, consisting of many cousins, come together to play a memorial match against the Ugle family, another large Indigenous family who has had young members pass away. The last time Pickett played in that game, he won the medal as best afield. (It now hangs in his family's kitchen, tangled with other medals and among other football accolades.)
Monica is the second cousin of St Kilda champion Nicky Winmar, and is also related to the Kickett family. Monica still goes by her maiden name of Collard, a family which produced former Fremantle and Richmond-listed player Clayton Collard. "I've always wanted to make it to the AFL like they did," Pickett says.
