Chris Pelchen's Phantom top 20, would leave some good names at pick 13 for West Coast to choose from (Higgins, Constable)
1. Luke Davies-Unakie...Brisbane
2. Paddy Dow...Fremantle
3. Cameron Rayner...Carlton
4. Jaidyn Stephenson...North Melbourne
5. Adam Cerra...Fremantle
6. Aaron Naughton...Collingwood
7. Andrew Brayshaw...St. Kilda
8. Aiden Bonar...St. Kilda
9. Nick Coffield...Western Bulldogs
10. Darcy Fogarty...Carlton
11. Jarrod Brander..Greater Western Sydney
12. Hunter Clarke...Adelaide
13. Oscar Allen...West Coast
14. Nathan Murphy...Sydney
15. Charlie Constable...Brisbane
16. Jack Higgins...Western Bulldogs
17. Sam Hayes...Richmond
18. Lochie O'Brien...Brisbane
19. Sam Taylor...Gold Coast

If the top 12 went like that Rawlings or whoever should be calling out Higgins' name the instant the Crows have sat down.

There is just absolutely no way Higgins slides to 16.
 
I am struggling to understand the love for Starcevich. He had pretty average start to the U18 carnival however played a decent later leg against Allies and did well in the All Star game.

His season at Colts was good but nothing that I have seen him playing live or on TV suggests that he is in the calculations for the Eagles up to and including pick 37. I think he falls in a 3rd to 4th round and I would be happy at pick 69 (assuming we have other bases covered).

For someone who spent a lot of time up front, he does not hit the scoreboard enough. As a midfielder, he looked a little at sea in a few games I saw.

Happy to get others input but as I stated, not a second round pick on my board.

Agree he may be around later. I wouldn't want us using too early picks on him but I like his athleticism. Very agile and quick and a decent build. I think he naturally puts his head over the ball and plays with intensity/works hard and has decent skills. So that to me suggests he has the attributes to potentially develop as an inside mid at afl level. + WA boy bias

In summary elite athleticism coupled with effort is what I like about him. Just think he's been underrated because his production hasn't been too high but I'm hoping he could develop.

How are the talls rated (either by you or what you think the club would think)?

My fairly uninformed guess of the club's ratings, taking into account needs:
- Brander - highly rated and can play at both ends
- Allen - quality, local, maybe think he can be more of a mid sized forward
- Balta - really athletic and flexible
- Naughton - don't don't really need him and his kicking is poor, even if Gov moved forward we would have toe KPDs who are limited offensively
- Hayes - just don't think we will invest a high pick on him unless we think he can play full forward well

Every team picks up dud players. I wouldn't be losing sleep over picking up Adam Carter at pick 59 back in 2012. 2012 was one of the worst drafts in memory.
I agree. Luck has something to do with it as well.
Dangerfield, Fyfe, Ablett, Shuey might have been duds if they had years of long term injuries, after being recruited.

Now I know I have been banging on about this kid for the last three months as the player I IMOST want us to get.
Many here have questioned if he is a genuine midfielder or just a hybrid HBF than can run and carry.

After having watched this clip of " my boy Hunter " ....... do any of you still have any doubts that he is a genuine inside / outside midfielder. ?

Sadly I think he will be off the board before we get to take our first pick, fingers crossed and all that if he was available at # 13 I would be super pissed if we passed him over.

Besides ( and credit here to avishka5 for this piece of work ) but how good does he look in Wings. ?

I'm definitely sold on Clark.

List of players I'd be very happy with:
1. Rayner
2. LDU
3. Cerra
4. Stephenson
5. Dow
6. Brayshaw
7. Higgins
8. Fogarty
9. Clark
10. Brander
11. Bonar

Coffield and Constable would be ok. Not sure how I would feel if we got any of the other highly rated talls.

Im more concerned we will pass on him for Allen.

You look at most the mock drafts and other commentary and 12 to 14 is where Clark is about.

This waiting for another two weeks is bullsh!t. The draft should be this Friday. Who needs two more weeks to prepare FFS.

The kids have exams.

Bloody selfish of them to make us fans wait though.

Wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if we do.

All this early consensus about us getting Allen reminds me of Sheed in 2013.

People will refer to Berry and Gallucci last year, but they weren't WA good boys who won the Larke Medal.

My Angus is peppered for Crazy Rohan to pass on Clark in favour of Allen.

Me too and all the chatter about Allen being destined for us makes me edgy as its not who I would take unless ALL the first tier mids were gone.
