This draft (I am not sure where kids are rated but thinking that a KPD, KPF, MID And half forwards are our greatest needs)
Next year draft is more of an elite midfield class so cashing in on KPP this year is must.
Pick 1 - KPD Jacob Weitering
Pick 8 - KPF (Weideman, Curnow)
or
Pick 8 - MID (Mathieson, Clarke)
Pick 11 - MID/FWD (Ah Chee,Clarke, Milera)
Pick 19 - FWD/MID (Jade Gresham, Balic)
or
Pick 19 - KPP (Collins)
Pick 59 - SOSOS

With the multiple options, the first name is my preference, but if unavailable, then get the next name in line.
Mathieson is a hard nut. He is not afraid to put his head over it and win the ball. Tries to be creative with hand balls, a bit like Cripps. Just the type of mid we should go for, he's a Geelong falcons boy who models his game around Joel Selwood. Strong tackling another highlight. I think we should definitely pick him up if he's available at #8 and Curnow and Weiderman are gone (which is likely t be the case).
Collins will be our FB. Will take pressure of Weitering and we definitely need another quality KPD we can't build our defence around 1 or 2 (with Plowman being the other guy). Those 3 guys can be the foundation for our backline for years to come. Has solid disposal and is very good in one-on-one contests as well.
