Some of the ones on my list...
I'd probably have Matthew Day as towards the top of the list of best quality remaining. Probably too similar to North though, so we won't take him.
I still think Nathan Krueger has got something and because he can play as a defender or big midfielder I'd still be considering him. I think both he and Chris Scott have enormous potential and their versatility with their height and elite speed means you aren't locked in to using them in one position. Also might fit the right balance with a tall winger/half back, lock down defender and ruck/forward we have on our rookie list.
If we are looking for another dangerous small/med forward then Francis Kinthari, Cody Ninyette, Adam Sambono, Jordon Johnston and Patrick Farrant are all still available. All have various pros and cons. Although with Matera traded in and Crowden and Switkowski taken in the draft I'm not sure we'll go this way now.
Zareth Roe and Gordon Narrier are two local names that have a lot of exciting "outside" attributes you can work with. Although I'm not sure I'd take them ahead of some of the names above. They'll likely spend another year in WAFL and we can revisit them as late/rookie picks next year.
Can't see us looking at Hayden McLean or Joel Amartey now - both have some good attributes though. And there is no way we'll get a shot at Tom Lamb by the time pick #5 comes around.
Matthew Day - 189cm Medium Midfielder, athletic former basketballer
Nathan Krueger - 196cm KPP from SA, elite speed and agility, versatile
Chris Scott - 193cm Key Defender from East Freo, elite speed, interceptor, rebounder, plays small and tall
Francis Kinthari - Small Forward from NT, x-factor, goal kicker, dangerous, 24yo
Cody Ninyette - 175cm Small Forward from Perth, small frame, elite skills, goal kicker
Adam Sambono - 182cm Forward from NT, dangerous goal kicker, NEAFL Rising Star
Jordon Johnston - 185cm Forward from GWV, solid, goal kicker
Patrick Farrant - 185cm Medium Forward from Swan Districts, raw, contested marking, goal kicker
Zareth Roe - 187cm Half Back from Perth, skillful and composed playmaker
Gordon Narrier - 187cm Outside Mid from Perth, great skills, playmaker
Hayden McLean - 196cm KPF/Ruck, strong mark, mobile
Joel Amartey - 196cm KPF/Ruck, athletic, can play defence
Tom Lamb - baaaaaaaa

They are more a champion team than team of champions though (well coached). Although Chris Scott was sensational in that GF - I have yet to talk to someone that went to that game that didn't rate him as bog. I think he had like 8 intercept marks. What I like most is he is clearly still very raw - can only imagine his ceiling if he is willing to work hard.
