I find it hard to believe Hill makes it in that list.
Hartlett is a much better player than Hill.

Im here and yes, Rockliff would be third if not second, behind Beams.

I think you guys are underrating Hill, but otherwise I was only confident in the top 8 of mine, then decided Breust needed to be in at number 9. But as for the number 10 spot, it was a toss up between Hill, Rich and Hartlett, and I decide to go with Hill.
My current top 10 of the 2008 AFL draft would be:
1. Dayne Beams
2. Tom Rockliff
3. Rory Sloane
4. Chris Yarran
5. Dan Hannebery
6. Jack Redden
7. Hamish Hartlett
8. Steele Sidebottom
9. David Zaharakis
10. Breust
Honorable mentions to Liam Shiels, Walters and a few others

Bullshit. If anything it's close to the best, look at how many regular first-graders were drafted.

Yarran? A bit high
This season he is showing some of the best football ive seen, elite skills and fantastic run, he's an absolutely unique player in this draft

Have a look at who he supports.
How I'd have it right now
1. Beams - The clear number 1 right now
2. Rockliff - I think this is pretty clear too. Does it all and does it consistently
3. Hannebery - The first few rounds were an anomaly. An absolute gut-buster who can be very damaging.
4. Steele Sidebottom - Has gone up a level this year. Played more games than the rest of the draft class and only the above three average more disposals. 90 goals is a huge return too.
5. Sloane - Is a very valuable contributor already and has shown the ability to take the game by the scruff of the neck.
6. Hartlett - Looks like he's finding the consistency that has held him back so far. Has all the tools.
7. Breust - Playing a difficult role and doing it so effectively. Can rise even higher too.
8. Zaharakis - Not having a great year but he's already shown how good he can be.
9. Redden - Not as classy as some of these, but gets it done. Love watching him go about it.
10. Motlop - Probably the most talented of the draft class and can tear a game apart.

Then you haven't watched AFL football.

Schoey in a half has shown more as forward than Watts has in his career. Breust is looking like a top 3-5 player of the '08 class the way he's playing this season.

It really is scary to see where Watts would be rated in this draft. He wouldn't be top 20 surely.

You could say the same thing about the non-Carlton fans on here who can't acknowledge Yarran's form in his last 16 games. I guess it's OK to list Broadbent, Roughead and others without having your opinion challenged.

Well I assume if people had Broadbent and Roughead at #4 in the draft their opinion would be challenged.
I get that NN has been injured and is out of form atm but honestly how the F*** can you rationalise pike being better than an AA ruckmen? You think he has more potential than NN??

That's true but you could also toss in Redden into the top 10 discussions

LMAO at Motlop above Beams, Rockliff and Hannebery.
Motlop will almost be as good as Stevie J. He will win games off his own boot which is something the other players won't. I'd rather have a Didak than a Beams.
Pike is a premiership ruckman.
