1: GWS – Cam Rayner
2: North Melbourne – Luke Davies-Uniacke

4: Gold Coast – Adam Cerra

6: Adelaide – Jaidyn Stephenson/Nick Coffield

10: West Coast – Andrew Brayshaw

14: Richmond – Aaron Naughton
15: Richmond – Patrick Naish
16: Sydney – Lochie O’Brien
17: Brisbane – Connor Ballenden
18: Adelaide – Hunter Clark

The only one I can simply not place is Jack Higgins, I rate him around the 9-11 mark but I can't for the life of me see who would see a need for him
Higgins ? 200 gamer , a real pest and a smaller version of Toby Greene

I'd be happy with him !!

Oh don't get me wrong Jeff, I'd be extremely happy with Higgins. Greene comparison is spot on. Just don't know which team would want him in that first round situation.

It might be better to post my power rankings, I'll do so later tonight
 
Interested to hear why you have (IMO) Hayes so high, Coffield a little low and Taylor so high, Jeffcrowe?
The talls always come in earlier as gets closer to draft

Coffield - would be happy to get him into top 6 but just think as a half back flanker it's hard when their are talls there

Rate coffield

Re Hayes - it's his ability to make back to back all Australian , kick multiple goals but also develop his ruck game . It's not like you are using pick 2 to draft a ruckman , he's a forward more than ruck currently but his rucking will develop

Advanced on what Peter Wright was dishing up at 17/18 yo and we now know Wright should have gone super early IMO

Constable I'm really impressed with at 190cm and an amazing footy IQ , the best footy IQ along with Jack Higgins in whole draft

Taylor gets job done as key defender , perhaps a little high but because he's a key defender that can win one on ones where Clavarino is more an interceptor
 
Would this work as a competition?

Phantom drafters are welcome to submit a numbered list of 75 players anytime between now and draft day.

Proposed scoring system

1 point - Picked in the draft

2 points - Picked in the draft and within 18 picks of your prediction

3 points - Picked in the draft and within 9 picks of your prediction

4 points - Picked in the draft and within 3 picks of your prediction

5 points - A bullseye


How should Academy and F/S bidding picks be dealt with?

The likes of Ross, Stoddart, Crossley unlucky. Haven't seen Bonar and Murphy yet but feel they could push into top 30 calculations almost immediately
 
Hi,

Feel lke we need to get a good midfielder and maybe a good backman to replace LEaver because I am under the impression he could leave.
 
I'm of the belief that his form drop off is mostly/all down to his knee issues and now that is out in the open I have little doubt recruiters will factor that in. He was clearly a top 3 Pick at the end of last year and there just had to be a reason for his drop off. I'm almost certain if he's there at our pick we'll take him, I just can't forget how dominant he was last year.

Unless of course Aiden Bonar is still there. :D
Confident he will go top 10. We'd need a pick in there.

This is what I'll say and leave it at

Cameron will be playing at the crows next year "FACT"

I am so certain on this that If I am wrong I'll run naked with a port scarf around my neck through the middle of Adelaide oval next showdown

My early rankings.

No point ranking Jackson Edwards really, it's a given we're taking him, but for the record late 2nd- early 3rd round is about where I'd have him.

45. Charlie Ballard SA
46. Ethan Penrith
47. Alex Martini SA
48. Aiden Domic
49. Jack Powell
50. Brandon Starcevich
51. Doulton Langlands

Players I think are a realistic chance of being available at our 1st I'd be very comfortable with - Darcy Fogarty SA, James Worpel, Noah Balta, Hunter Clark, Joel Garner, Callum Coleman-Jones SA, Oscar Claravino, Lachlan Fogarty. Aiden Bonar if he finishes the season off well in the Finals and passes the Medicals OK.

Players I'd consider if there at our 2nd - Gryan Miers [especially if Cameron departs], Dylan Moore, Andrew McPherson SA, Jackson Ross, Jack Petrucelle [Ordinary foot skills and all], Nathan Krueger SA, Harrison Petty SA, Jordan Johnston, Jordan Houlahan SA.

Late/Speculative/Rookie Picks - Tom North, Alex Martini SA, Aiden Domic, Charlie Ballard SA, Ethan Penrith, Brandon Starcevich, Stefan Giro SA, Mitch Crowden SA, Nathan Murphy, Toby Wooller, Lloyd Meek, Flynn Appleby.

And any of the above 2nd picks still available of course.

Edited : Clean forgot SA's Charlie Ballard.

I've just read on the Brisbane board that Rayner only ran an 11 on the beep test? Is that right? That is a dismal effort, you'd hope drafting him in the top 5 that he can improve that. He is either super lazy (not willing to push deep) or was hampered by injury, surely?

The little bit I've seen of him suggests all the talent is there, but will that be Jake Stringer 2.0? Similar argument could be had for Fogarty I suppose, although we know he was significantly hampered by injury in the champs.

Re Rayner - that proves how good he is

To me he is clear no 1 pick to daylight as only think that Hayes is the other I would consider a ' special' player

The rest are various levels of solid and good , finding hard to get excited re this draft

Let's wait until the combine testing before we get too excited, and anyway I don't think it will effect where Rayner goes too significantly, he does football.
There's been lots of talk re his "tank" but on the occasions I've seen him play he looked fine with consistent repeat efforts. No way we'll get a crack at him anyway even if he tests poorly...He does football.
Exactly - wait until he starts doing AFL pre seasons

A footballer with some special traits

Re Krueger from SA

If we take him with our 1st rounder I wouldn't be upset at all ( especially if one or both of Lever and Gov go )
 
Darcy Fogarty more than likely, Maybe's Luke Davies-Unakie, Adam Cerra, Charlie Constable, not that far behind and almost certainly available Hunter Clark, James Worpel, Andrew Brayshaw, Lachie Fogarty.

That pick probably nearly lands Bryce Gibbs IMO so then we'd be probably be looking at guys like James Worpel, Hunter Clark and Andrew Brayshaw as possibles with our own 1st, perhaps even Lachie Fogarty who a lot of us rate if still targeting a mid.
Use 6/7 on Gibbs? Who are the gun mids in the first lot you mentioned.
