Brisbane academy, so he will very likely be going there (unless Bris surprisingly doesn't bid).

FTR I don't think using a first on Simpkin is the wisest thing to do
Yes but currently rated to go later in the draft.......problem is Noble has a good idea who our targets are

Off this year's form alone, I wouldn't touch him at 13 (seems to have certainly regressed), although considering his 2015 was very good I reckon he's one of the ones that could prove me (and others) wrong.

Kicking way too inconsistent for mine. No point getting the ball if you burn it all the time.
You really need to watch more than 2 minute highlight reels to get a true reflection of a player's game, Daniel Venables is a competent kick have no fears there, my only query with Daniel is his lack of production, capable of some insanely good football, just don't see enough of it, often enough. His good is very, very good, other days he can just go virtually unsighted.

at 194 cm Allison also took out the 20mtr sprint at the combine
 
Isn't SPP's kicking garbage?
Not garbage, No, but can be inconsistent....can tend to try to do too much with ball in hand rather than the team thing would be his biggest failing at this stage IMO. Needs to temper his bull at a gate attitude and get smarter football wise.

Won the Goal Kicking contest at the Combine .......maybe a bit of Dangerfield in that he's always kicking at full pace?

Powell Pepper also top 3 in agility test .....won the goal kicking test and up in other testing ....starting to get my ears pricked

This is my thing with SPP... he needs to become a smarter footballer. He's very explosive at the moment, which is a good thing, but it can be at the detriment of your team at times. Needs to learn how to assess a contest, extract the ball, run away with it and make a smart decision by hand or foot.

He'll definitely be a wingman at the next level, needs to become stronger bodied and to develop consistency by foot though

Has also run a 16 beep at one point !

I'd rather look at his positives than his negatives but I've still got Venables ahead of him
Reasons?
 
I think we would probably look at inside/outside type to be honest.
Agree, and there will be 4 or 5, possibly more that fit that bill still there at Pick 13 I feel, just wish to Christ we still had a 2nd round pick as Willem Drew could still be there possibly and I'd love him as "back up" to whoever we take at 13. Might not be as "sexy" as who we take at 13 but he's bloody effective.

Well that includes Venables, Powell Pepper, & Scharenberg, if you have a half ear to needs .....Bolton, Schrimshaw & Florent have to be included in the prospect list if going purely on talent

Would not touch Bolton with 13. Would grab Florent and especially Venables at 13 with both hands (although I feel the club won't consider Florent).

Scrimshaw I would take, but is he what we need? Doesn't win a lot of contested ball. Scharenberg may be a bit of a reach. SPP I'd be fine with.

Pretty close to the mark unless someone spots a Doedee, Marshall and Simpkin are the 2 that I feel could be taken earlier perhaps by clubs open to speculation.

What don't you like about Bolton?

Was unsure about Marshall, would have put him higher but I don't see any of the teams in the 9-15 range having a need for a KPF? North maybe, but I feel they'll want a mid. Simpkin I feel clubs will think is too outside to be an 11-15 pick
What don't you like about Bolton?
VERY outside, doesn't work hard defensively and slight. He screams a career small forward/half forward to me, with 43 I'd take him but absolutely not with 13.
