Everyone else has been doing it, so I will to.
Round 1
1. Melbourne - Jack Watts
I think it's a given the Watts will end up at Melbourne. He is the logical pick. The Dees have the issue on their hands of do we try and solve our problems up forward or do we solve our lack of quality ruckmen problem. If it comes to that I think you have to fix the forward option by going the best KPP in the draft where you can possibly find an adequate ruckman to develop further into the draft. Watts is obviously a freak.
2. West Coast - Daniel Rich
After retaining Seaby during the trade period I now think the Eagles will go down the route of take Rich here and hopefully snagging another ruckman later in the draft. The have previously built a premiership winning team focusing on the midfield, and adding Rich to Masten and Ebert could have the same effect in time.
3. Fremantle - Nicholas Naitanui
Might be bound for Fremantle now that West Coast retained Seaby and the Dockers off loaded Warnock. I still believe they would be hoping for Rich, but if Naitanui turns out it is exactley what the Dockers need. A young supremely talented boy who will attract a lot of publicity to a relatively new football club.
4. Port Adelaide - Tyrone Vickery
Tyrone Vickery is the last of the big 4. Lade has 1 year left in him, Brogan isn't young. They have 1 other options on their list now Deluca is gone with only Giles as a young ruckman. Lobbe may be used forward. Much like Brisbane and Leuenberger Port won't resist taking Vickery.
5. Essendon - Michael Hurley
They'd be silly not to take Hurley who is clearly the 2nd best KPP in this draft, and if they don't a think Carlton will jump for joy. If they take Hurley they start to build a list around some young talented KPP in Gumbleton, Ryder and then Hurley. With 3 young talls with that kind of ability their future looks bright.
6. Carlton - Jack Ziebell
They should go Ziebell as he is the best available. Has good height for the type of player he is and will develop into a very strong player at AFL level that can play different roles. I watched him closely in the TAC Cup final and while his impact wasn't huge he looks like a beautiful footballer.
7. Brisbane - Hamish Hartlett
Apparently Voss had a bit to do with him at the AIS and likes him. Brisbane and Voss have signalled out the fact they will look to the midfield and Hartlett can play inside and outside. Very promising kid and I think Brisbane would be happy to add a quality young midfielder here.
8. Richmond - Shaun McKernan
I tossed up a little what Richmond would do here. They would probably like another midfielder and I wouldn't be surprised to see that, but they could also look at another tall forward option. They have Hughes who looks hot and cold and also have Putt in development and Schulz is given a few chances each year to cement himself and never takes it. I think if they took McKernan a future forward line with him and Riewoldt as talls looks promising.
9. North Melbourne - Steele Sidebottom
He was probably close to the top 10 mark before the final against Dandenong, and may move up the order a little, but not too much considering the players in front of him. I think he will either go here or at pick 8.
10. Adelaide - Lewis Johnston
I could see a couple of player going at 10 to Adelaide. McKernan is one, Hill another, and Sidebottom if he slips. Hartlett would be almost certain if he slides, but I think they will look tall here and take the home town option, although they seem to take Victorians alot with their first pick. They have Walker in development, I think Tippett will oneday play ruck, and the uncertainty of Hentschel and Burton and Sellar who knows. Johnston would sure up their forward line which seems to be their biggest problem with good young mids, 2 solid defenders who are not old and a good young ruckman.
11. Collingwood - Tom Swift
I'm not sure what we will do, you can just never tell. We're likely to bluff everyone and take someone rated second round. I personally think we could bite the bullet and take the risk here. We have plenty of kids and if Swift works out it could turn into one of our biggest draft success's. His stocks have risen after the draft camp where he tested well, but MM doesn't get sucked into testing. Hopefully he showed a lot of character in his interview.
12. Sydney - Jackson Trengove
They seem to like tough, short nuggety mids, but this season I believe they should go tall as they have aging players like Barry, Hall and O'Loughlin who are important to their structure with minimum time left. Time to develop a talented, young, athletic tall.
13. St. Kilda - Sam Blease
Some suggest he will go top 10, other think he could slide to the priority picks. I think the saints should go him. They would like to find a young line breaking midfielder to develop alongside Armitage for the future. I think they've signalled they'll look to the midfield.
14. Western Bulldogs - Ayce Cordy
No brainer. The saints and crows, and probably Richmond have already stated they will bid for Cordy, probably to keep the bulldogs honest and take him in their first round where he belongs. I don't think the dogs will be to disappointed about that. A sure thing if any.
15. Geelong - Nick Heyne
It's hard to suggest what Geelong will take. They loaded up on KPP in last years draft with McKenna, Simpson, Taylor and co, now they will likely take a midfielder with their early pick this year. Swift has been mentioned at their pick and I suppose it will be a good selection as he will get plenty of time to develop, but if he's gone after a pretty good draft camp they might take Heyne who seems one of the best availble here. Weird dropping action but classy enough with x-factor.
16. Hawthorn - Stephen Hill
A lot of people would suggest they take Lisle, I don't think there is a need as they have Thorp and Dowler developing as key-position players, and Gilham is underated. Stephen Hill could go higher after a very good draft camp, but if he doesn't I don't see why Hawthorn won't take him. Maybe Collingwood will look at him at pick 11. He needs a bit of size and at Hawthorn there is no hurry for him.
Priority Selections
17. Melbourne - Jordan Lisle
Bit of a free hit here with pick 19 to come. Lisle is a possibility. They should look to a couple of KPP in this draft after Morton, Grimes and Maric last year. They have Rivers, Garland and Martin down back, but you can't complain about KP depth and Rivers is injury prone.
18. West Coast - Chris Yarran
You here good things about him, but also bad things. One thing is clear, he is very talented, but like Leeory Jetta did he may slip into this area. AT present West Coast have some pretty good medium forward who are generally leading and mark forwards, and Kennedy is young and talented, but they don't really have a crumbing forward, and this will be Yarran's go early on. They have Wirrpanda who goes forward now and then, but lately he looks a little past it. They need this type and it's just another chance to add a very talented kid.
Round 2
19. Melbourne - Mitch Robinson
They'll change it up a bit here and take a midfielder. He is overage but had a big impact at the Nationals and could probably come in and have an impact early ala Palmer. He looks good and will add a bit of pace and carry to the Dees midfield.
20. West Coast - Aaron Cornelius
After taking 2 locals I don't think West Coast will pass up an opportniy to take another player forward who can take strong grabs and kick goals. A few people don't rate him, others rate him highly. I don't mind him and with 3 picks inside 20 the Eagles can justify picking him up here.
21. Fremantle - Michael Walters
Like Yarran his go early on would be as a small forward before maybe moving into a midfield role later on. Fremantle need this type of player just like their cross town rivals. The retirement of Farmer means they should go his type. They have Mayne as a medium/small type forward, but he's not really this type.
22. Port Adelaide - Nick Suban
I wouldn't be surprised to see them go another tall here, but I think Suban is the go. Thomson who was an early pick and inside midfield has asked for trade so they may try to off set that by taking another inside midfielder type. Schoenmakers is also a big show at this pick.
23. Essendon - Rhys O'Keefe
I reckon Essendon would be happy to take the dashing defender here, with the vision to turn him into a line breaking midfielder in the future and if not he will be a satisfactory running defender. Wouldn't mind him sliding through to our second pick.
24. Fremantle - Matt DeBoer
Being a hometown boy I think Fremantle will use the pick acquired from Carlton on the midfielder. Now that I have them taking Naitanui at 3, I think they might look to take DeBoer to add to their quality young mids in Palmer and Ibbotson.
25. Brisbane - David Zaharakis
I reckon Vossy might jump at Zaharakis if he is still available. Like I said earlier they seem to be on the lookout for talented young midfielders, and Zaharakis fits the criteria and if still availble will be a good pickup for the Lions.
27. Richmond - Neville Jetta
They have small/medium forwards, but their only real crumbing option has been Brown who is getting on in years. Tambling should continue to move into the midfield and there will soon be a spot up for grabs for a small crumbing forward. By that logic Jetta could be taken.
26. North Melbourne - Ryan Schoenmakers
The Roos have put Jones on the market and seem to have lost faith in him. If he is moved on they could off set the move by taking Schoenmakers who moves well, has good hands and a long rangey left foot. Perfect replacement and the roos do need to add a little something up forward.
28. Adelaide - Tom Lynch
Tall utility type that could play as a lead up forward also move into the middle. Adelaide could do with more talented tall players, and the fact he could swing into the middle is a bonus. Quality tall midfielders are worth their weight.
29. Collingwood - Daniel Hannebery
Reeks of a Collingwood selection. Bottom aged and Victorian. Tested really well in the endurance and is a talented young midfielder that we could definitely make use of. Would be happy with him.
30. Sydney - Jayden Post
A player that is growing in reputation. Highly talented tall, that could develop into a quality key defender. Likes to take the player on, and takes some big marks. If the swans could nab Trengove and Post with their first 2 picks they could sure up the key position stocks.
31. Western Bulldogs - Clancee Pearce
Running defender but could be turned into a midfielder type. Looks pretty skilled, strong and hard at it. And would be another midfield option for the dogs in the future if they developed him well.
32. Western Bulldogs - Paul Cahill
First real live pick for the Dogs with Cordy going in the first round. They need to keep going tall as if they do 1 will turn out. They like the SA boys and should have a good look at him. Likely to take someone we've never heard of.
33. Geelong - Mitch Banner
Once again who knows what they should do, probably just go with who they think is best available. They might look at a player like Banner. Inside mids are the players that can come in early.
34. Hawthorn - James Strauss
Young utility type. The hawks will be looking to add depth to their list. Strauss is a good kid who plays out of defense and in the middle. Their key position stocks are good, as well as their midfield stocks. Their KP's are younger so they may as well add small and mediums.
Round 3
35. Melbourne - Jordan Roughead
They need to find a young ruckman to develop. There was no secret they were keen on Warnock but missed. They have Jamar who is a battler, Johnson who is a more talented battler and Meesen who can't get right but isn't really a ruckman. It will come down to Roughead and Redden. Roughead just getting over the line here.
36. West Coast - Jarred Redden
Next young ruckman to go. Nice young developing player with plenty of upside and improvement in him. Not a lot in young ruck stocks at West Coast with Cox and Seaby both 25 or over, and only Sullivan on the rookie list. Redden will add to the ruck stocks which becomes very important with depth.
37. Fremantle - Tom Rockliff
Young medium forward who would add something a little different to Fremantle's forward line. They have Mayne who is also a medium small, but a different type to Rockliff. These types of medium forwards are becoming increasingly popular in todays style of play and a good one is worth his weight in gold.
38. Port Adelaide - Matthew Broadbent
Good hometown boy who uses the footy well. Possesses good height for the position he plays, and if developed well could become a weapon for Port as he can play as a insider or outsider.
39. Geelong - Jamie Sheahan
Pacy inside midfielder who can also carry the footy. I have Geelong taking midfielders this year as they took talls with last years selections. Sheahan goes alright.
40. Carlton - Mitch Brown
Might go a little higher, might go a little earlier. There's a fair bit of love for Mitch Brown on these boards at times. As a key forward I would think he might come into calculations here. Blues would be happy with him.
41. Brisbane - Kade Klemke
Another midfield option for the Lions. If you look at their delistings and trades they have outed a few small/medium players and need to re-stock here. Reads the play well and is suited to half-back.
42. Port Adelaide - Ashley Smith
Really good young boy from my old mob. Really like him and apart from Scully would've been their best player. I think the power will look at him here. He might go earlier. Nice foot skills.
43. North Melbourne - Sam Wright
Adds something a little different up forward. Played a pretty effective game in the TAC Cup final and has a bit to work with. Roos may use this pick on a quick midfielder which they're in the market for.
44. Adelaide - Chris Hall
Good, nippy little small forward who can run through the middle. They drafted Jacky last year, but teams tend to possess more than 1 small forward these days and it is usually successful. Hall and Jacky could strike up a nice partnership. He is also a SA boy.
45. Collingwood - Luke Shuey
Pies need midfielders, so they're likely to draft talls, but Shuey would be worth looking at. They could probably even justify taking him with a second rounder. Good inside mid who works with his hands well but has a bit of a ? over his kicking.
46. Collingwood - Tom Hill
Pies will take a KP player somewhere throughout the draft. They'll probably take a big key forward like Hill with the visions of turning him into a defender. Good kid, and bottom aged. Last draft where you will be able to take bottom aged players for a while.
47. St. Kilda - Rory Sloane
Wouldn't mind adding another pacy small. Sloane can play through defense and in the middle. Saints adding some depth to their smaller brigade.
48. St. Kilda - Riley Milne
Two selections in a row for the saints. I've selected Milne here, no not because of his last name, but because he is a key defender at 192cm and plenty of development in him. Hudghton is getting on, they will need to find another young key defender.
49. Geelong - Ranga Ediriwickrama
I'm not sure how many selection Geelong will have. Not many, maybe only 4, maybe even 3. NSW scholarship boy who in reality will most likely be taken by Geelong with their last pick, they're just testing the waters to see how much they have to pay for him. They won't let him past.
50. Hawthorn - Jarrad Blight
Might go a bit taller with their 3rd selection. Good utility with Hawthorn trying to improve their depth.
Round 1
1. Melbourne - Jack Watts

The Dees have the issue on their hands of do we try and solve our problems up forward or do we solve our lack of quality ruckmen problem.
