These are not in any order of priority and it will depend on what our draft order is but from what I am reading, these are the players we should be focussing on first & foremost, they cover all of the draft rounds as well :
Ruckman
Peter Wright (Calder Cannons) 203cm, 102kg (can play as a key forward too)
Tom Read (200cm ruckman, SA)
Sam Baulderstone (200cm Norwood SA) (mature-age back-up option)
Key Position
Jesse Watchman (West Adelaide) 197cm, 94kg
Sam Durdin (West Adelaide) 197cm, 87kg
Reece McKenzie (Northern Knights) 196cm, 100kg
Midfielders
Matthew Goodyear (Calder Cannons) 185cm, 77kg
Liam Duggan (Western Jets) 183cm, 76kg
Declan Hamilton (Port Adelaide) 183cm, 68kg
Rhys Mathieson (Geelong Falcons) 185cm, 80kg (may not be eligible for this year's draft)
Christian Petracca (Eastern Ranges) 186cm, 92kg
Lachlan Weller (QLD)
Defenders
Keenan Ramsay (Port Adelaide) 192cm,
Jack Hayes (191cm defender/forward, SA)
Clem Smith (Perth) 178cm, 67kg
Forwards
Darcy Hourigan (overlooked last year)
Dylan Winton (Peel Thunder) 191cm, 86kg
Patrick McCartin (Geelong Falcons) 193cm, 95kg
Mitchell Mahady (Murray Bushrangers) 194cm
The three in red are hopefully going to be known as "Sheik's Special Smokies" as they won't be anywhere near the first round.
