Fremantle select Brayden Maynard with pick number 34.
A forward/midfielder type tackling machine in the mould of Paul Puopulo, he'll fit perfectly in the Ross Lyon, Fremantle system. A project player over the next 2 years as Ballantyne and Walters command the small forward role. He could be trialled as a high forward early in his career. Will be interesting to see where he goes on Draft day as some pundits have him as high as 15 and as low as 45.
Next up...Adelaide's pick 35 from Daniel1812

Yes he has immense potential, and is exactly what we and North need.

Pick 37: Sydney – Jack Lonie
Position: Forward
Height: 174 cm, Weight: 67 kg, DOB: 13/08/1996
Club: Dandenong Stingrays
Projected draft range: 30-rookie
Player comparison: Hayden Ballantyne
Plays Bloods football. Great tackler and performer of pressure acts inside 50, and what could be better than starting a career at the feet of Tippett, Buddy, Reid and Goodes. Complementary piece of the puzzle for the team that has almost everything.
We'll then have Hiscox as an academy selection.
I think it's AdelaideFan14 up next

According to the Suns board they will only be using 3 picks, and have interest in Raines and Hunt. As such, I will bid this draft adieu 
I'll do a write up (i.e. copy knightmare's write-ups) later.

They currently have 6 list vacancies, and haven't announced any rookie upgrades, so I'd say take one more.

Post 2 gives you the full list so far
Hmm I was expecting him to be gone by now, but I think I'll continue to boost the Bulldogs tall stocks and defensive stocks and take Keenan Ramsey (192cm 86kg SA). He will join Oscar McDonald and Zaine Cordy as Tall defenders taken by the Bulldogs in this years draft. I see Ramsey, Roughead, McDonald and Cordy in the future taking the 2 tall KPD roles and 2 medium defender roles, with Boyd, Keitel and Crameri as the 3 tall forwards.
You must really rate Keitel as a forward, I see him as a defender at AFL level, I feel that is where he has played his best footy.
I just don't see the Bulldogs taking 4 KPP.

I was eyeing off Ramsey but I guess Melbourne will have to take someone else.
Pick 40: Dillon Viojo-Rainbow
Height: 185cm, Weight: 80kg
Position: Rebounding Defender
Melbourne could do with some rebound and this guy is apparently good at that. Also, he has a very cool name. So there's that.

Yeah can't see that happening either. Sure, they have poor KPP stocks, but they could also benefit from depth in other positions.
You'd think they would take at least one midfielder to cover the loss of Cooney and Griffen

Pick 41 - St Kilda - Jack Cripps
Tall forward/ruck, to be groomed to take over from St Nick, could even be thrown to the wolves as early as 2015.

#42 Adelaide
Touk Miller
177 cm, 80 kg, 22/2/96
Range: Top 40
Style: Dion Prestia
Miller would add some pace, smarts and skill to a Sydney lineup with very little wrong with it. So I'm going for some grunt and work with this selection. Dean Gore to me would also have been a really nice pickup here but he doesn't have pace or great footskills, something I think the Swans might steer clear from. Miller's a hard working balanced midfielder with thirst for the hard ball and physical side of football. He's a quality clearance player with a great read of the tap and some physical dominance on the inside. He's also a really quick player with both his breakaway and top speed very high. He's able to create space and opportunity out of the inside to effectively dispose of the ball with his footskills decent without being great. On the outside he's a capable option also able to hit the scoreboard. Miller is also a ferocious and effective volume tackler. He just works hard, runs both ways and does everything right. Height the only concern and it's what's caused him to slide this far.
Evaluation of his prospects: Miller's a really handy player and only size is holding him back. I think he's going to be another one of those small players that really makes clubs pay for discriminating against them based on height.
Reason: He can play in the forwardline as well as the midfield. Works hard, has SPEED! , in the highlighted selection it's what Walsh mentioned.

Pretty sure it's my pick now as the next Lions pick is already confirmed as an academy selection. Won't take too long.
