Fair call on Barrass, thought he was a touch younger than 27.

Pick 12
Western Bulldogs
Reuben Ginbey East Perth / WA
Im sneaking in and taking Ginbey ahead of the Eagles. Sounds like he has his fans inside the top 10 and most likely doesn’t last this long on draft night. Potential to eventually fill the Dunkley mid role with time also spent in defence.
BrutThough, you’re up!

Pick 13 - Elijah Hewett, Swan Districts
185cm, 84kg, MID/FWD
After taking a key defender with their first pick, Eagles go for an explosive mid/fwd in the Petrecca mould. Was a bit inconsistent this year but has the upside to be the match winning midfielder to centre this rebuild around.

Now as Melbourne.....
Pick 14 - Isaac Keeler, North Adelaide
198cm, 88kg, Ruck/FWD
With such a strong list, Melbourne will pull the trigger on Keeler to fill the Jackson void long term. While they considered Jefferson, the athleticism, speed and ball use of Keeler with his ability to play both ruck and forward put him ahead. While he is still raw, a few years developing alongside the best 2 rucks in the comp will be a luxury for Melbourne. His ability to play forward should also allow him to play alongside Grundy once Gawn retires.
L_W_P your pick.

I like this pick. Feels like dees would be best fit to draft him. Good project player.
There's usually a few draft bolters who work their way into the first round like Angus Sheldrick last year. I can see Keeler being picked in the teens.

I came out in front. Not heaps but something's better than nothing!!
After missing out on Fletch the Swans will select another tall, athletic mid in Edward Allan.
We feel as though our inside game is still as good as ever but the Grand Final showed us up for run and dare.
Allan could play on a flank as early as next year, with an eye to move into the midfield as his body adjusts to senior footy.

Claremont/Western Australia
Midfielder
September ranking: 28
It was a brilliant Draft Combine for Allan that reminded recruiters of his excellent athletic traits. He won the 20-metre sprint, clocking in at 2.814 seconds, came fifth in the agility (8.255 seconds) and inside the top 10 in the vertical jump (68cm). It was a fair set of results for a player of Allan's height, with the son of former Hawthorn and Fremantle star Ben a tall midfielder who can also play on the wing. A back injury ruled him out of the first half of the season before he returned and showed his form with Claremont.

Pick 17 - GWS - Matthew Jefferson, Oakleigh Chargers
This draft couldn't have gone much better for GWS. With a reliance on Hogan as an ageing key forward, the unsuccessful dabbling of a two ruck set-up through 2022, and a list cull which included handy tall timber in Stein, Sproule and Brander, the opportunity to add the innate forward nous of Jefferson to the elite talent of Cadman and take the U18 AA Forwardline Spine is a no-brainer!
SaintJunior you're up with the Pies first pick

Pick 17 Collingwood select Lewis Hayes - Eastern Ranges
199cm/82kg
Promising key defender , ran a 2.99 at the combine in the sprint so has great closing speed . Very good one on one.

We will match that bid. Welcome tadpole
We are running a mock draft on the Richmond board at the moment and are upto pick #26 /#27 and i am selecting for GWS
I have also gone with Cadman/Jefferson with the first 2 selections .
GWS would be ecstatic if that was the result in the real draft
I've not yet seen a Phantom where Jefferson gets past that pick, and in most cases he's predicted a lot earlier.

With the matched bid the Swans will move on to selecting: LACHIE COWAN
Lachie has shown he can perform at the elite level against his peers and we need to look to a future without Jake Lloyd.
Pairing Cowan with Blakey feels pretty exciting and I've got a soft spot for Tasmanians hehe
1/12/04
187cm/81kg
Tasmania Devils/Allies
Defender/midfielder
September ranking: 23
A long-kicking bigger-bodied prospect who can play off half-back or through the midfield, Cowan had a consistent season for Tasmania and the Allies. He was crowned a joint winner of the Morrish Medal in the NAB League and also was a standout for the Allies across their carnival. The left-footer placed inside the top 10 in the running vertical jump test with a leap of 83cm.

Pick 21 - GWS - Olli Hotton, Sandringham Dragons
Pick 22 - GWS - Brayden George, Murray Bushrangers
Was going to pick more positional here, but the above two fit the bill as well as being high quality talent. Hotton should fit in well in the small forward group to start but has the athletic traits, pace and skill to hopefully move further up the ground in years to come, whilst George isn't necessarily a need for the team, but is a risk well worth taking given his trajectory and sought after skillset as that big-bodied medium forward who in time could roll through the engine room.
BrutThough is next with West Coast

Pick 23 - West Coast - Mitch Szybkowski, Dandenong Stringrays
186cm, 86kg, MID
West Coast will add a contested mid here to compliment what they have already taken. Szybkowski, who has great stoppage craft and clean hands, should be to play early to help replace the current aging midfield group. While he needs to work on his outside game, there was notable improvement throughout the season with him starting to win more outside ball.
Tommy Wigs your pick.

Pick 24 - Western Bulldogs - Josh Weddle, Oakleigh Chargers
Dogs will be keen to add a tall defender and Weddle will give them plenty of flexibility given Weddle’s capability to play on multiple types.
Write up via Mr Cal Twomey:
A standout of the Draft Combine and a player who clubs will look at as a very versatile key defensive option. The Oakleigh Charger came in the top 10 for the vertical jump, running vertical jump, 20-metre sprint and 2km time trial tests to underline his athletic capabilities. It's these traits that make him appealing to clubs as a robust tall defender who can play on a number of opponents.
