13 from Geelong looks good.

12 from Gippy also caught my eye.

Can you draft dudes tell me your thoughts on them please?

Ethan Floyd - Geelong - Needs to clean up with a few of his kicks but can get his hands on the ball a lot and provide run from half back. Rookie prospect.

Will Leslie - Gippsland - Overager and very inconsistent, played a good game today with only a few mistakes but strikes me as a VFL player.

Same. There are quite a few I like that could become really good players, all are projected for 40-rookie by most draft experts.

Agreed. Even the ones projected to go in the range of our 2nd and 3rd picks I like more then last year. I wasn't a fan of last year's draft though, I was more then happy for Dalrymple to take two unknowns in Young and Greene late.
 
Wooler> Petruccelle
Wooler reminds me a bit like how Mason Wood played, not sure how they compare athletically though.

Wood has far more speed, agility and has a better leap. He was excellent in all 3 of those areas at the combine.
I like Wooller though and I thought he was massive yesterday. I would consider him at our 3rd pick.

Asked you your thoughts on Balta?

I am not sure where he goes, probably somewhere between our first and second

I think I've commented a couple times on him. I'd like to catch a bit more of him this year, a few replays I have to get through yet. Can see him going later first round, I think he's too risky for us with what I've seen. I think he's a backman, that's where I've seen him play his best footy.

What position do you see him playing?

Just finished watching the Sandringham V Murray Game.

Who I liked the look of:

Sandy

2 - Geordie Nagle - the length this guy can get into his kicking is insane. Had a couple of kicks out of defense that went 65-70m. Defended really well.

6 - Charlie Constable - good game on the inside and kicked a nice goal. Had moments that really show why he is so highly touted but had a few turnovers.

8 - Will Walker - close to one of the best players on the ground. Tallish mid that can be a target up forward and finished with 4 goals. One to watch.

9 - Andrew Brayshaw - typical game from Andrew. Good midfielder and like Constable probably a top 12 pick in this draft. Finished with a few goals but could have had a few more. I like him.

11 - Hamish Brayshaw - played a good game up forward and finished with 3 goals. Constantly provided a target and did some good things.

15 - Alfie Jarnestrom - no right side but was the best on the ground. Had his hand in many goals and was a constant threat whether playing as a small forward or as a mid and was able to get on his left side.

22 - Quintin Montanaro - does he have a preferred side? This guy is all silk when in possession, his kicks rarely miss targets and he doesn't look like to panic with his disposal like some outside players do.

29 - Joel Amartey - the development of this guy since the last time I saw him is nothing short of outstanding. Played ruck which he won't if he makes it on an AFL list (he is 195cm) but has a crazy vertical jump and made some very good kicks for a big man. Would love to develop him as a defender or forward off a rookie list.

Murray Bushrangers

4 - Laitham Vandeermeer - there's is something about him. He made mistakes but his speed and ability to break lines interests me.

5 - Ben Paton - was one of the better players for murray. In saying that I was expecting a bit more from him. Still his marking overhead stood out, hands on him like a vice.

21 - Doulton Langlands - good outside player with a lot of scope. Has some pace and is a long kick. Finished with a goal and about 20ish touches.

I only saw glimpses of the game but at one stage saw Brayshaw kick a goal then burst out of the middle straight after. Looks strong inside.

I got bored watching the first game cause Geelong were winning and none of their players really do much for me, I tuned in to get a good look at Porter but he was quiet. Shows good closing speed and is strong above his head though so height is not a concern for him at all.
 
I think Montanaro would be a good fit for us late in the draft or as a rookie. Has the silk.

Geelong midfield just too strong.

Gippsland also gave Miers way too much freedom and let Ling and Floyd off the hook running out of defense at times.

I like Vandeermeer and Will Walker as well, both have the ability to burst out of stoppages. I noticed watching Walker live that he seems to be on the move at stoppages quite a lot. Plays with a lot of energy. I think he in particular would add something different to our midfield and can do a bit up forward. Can be a bit sloppy/rushed with his kicking at times though.

Montanaro's kicking was pretty ordinary last week, will have to take another closer look at him.

Montanaro's is technically a very good kick on both sides. He is a kick first handball second type so he does have some turnovers by foot. You get that when a player chooses to kick it 80% of the time.

Technically a very good kick on both sides, that is what is important for me. So many players get corralled on their non preferred. He doesn't.

I tell you what, Sam Walsh already looks a step ahead of TAC cup level, similarly to how Rankine has been playing SANFL seniors and probably been his team's best player for half a season. Next year's group brings the excitement, this year's group is still quality though.

Sam Walsh is pure class. Far and away my favourite for next year's draft. High-production, versatile and with excellent skills.
