Is Brayshaw coached by Lloyds brother in his college team? If so wouldnt we have a pretty good idea of what he is capable of.

Personally I would want us to go with whoever we value as the best non-vic player, rather than the 5th best Vic player. Right now thats looking like either D.Fogarty or Brander. Either of which I would be happy with.
Do have a nagging feeling that Fogarty will carry some go home factor though.

We have had great retention from SA, Vic Country players, but Vic Metro? I think even Harley Balic
was from metro?
Nailed the ruckman pick last year, and going by his maturity, family, seems like a ripper person.
Looking at Brayshaw's highlights he reminds me of Cotchin, dont know if thats becuase of the number 9 on his back and dark hair. But he seemsw to be able to get the ball in a contest and break away from it so he must have reasonable pace and he is very clean with his hands. Definitely would not be angry if we got him
Has a beautiful kick as well for an inside player, not to mention he definitely has a footballers brain, honestly looking at his highlights and stats I'm not sure why he isn't being touted as a top 5 pick.
I agree. its been baffling me for weeks. I think if Angus was slightly better, and to a lesser extent Hamish, he'd be rated a lot higher.
I think Andrew had a late start because of injury during the championships, so it might have been out of sight....He stood out though when he played in the later games. He was really impressive. Did most of the basics very well. It quickly became obvious he was a very good talent.

So true
There are 3 playing in this game.I assume Naughton would have been picked if not for the WAFL grand final this weekend.
If we get more than 4-5 in the top 40 of the draft I would be pretty surprised.
The only one I am 100% sure is going top 40 is Naughton. The rest could all fall out easily enough. Of course it could end up being 5 if Taylor, Allen, Patmore etc get taken inside but it is entirely plausible that they are all 40+ picks.
I don't think this is a conspiracy, we just don't have the talent this year.

How could you tell? WA won all but one game at the carnival. You would have thought a few more would get an opportunity to impress. But they don't even get that. 6 players at Eastern Rangers better than every kid in WA?
Reckon if Oscar Allen has grown a couple of centimetres (literally 2cms) and shows a bit in this game we will look closely at him early on. Lloyd's comments about focusing on fwds and mids has buoyed me on the prospect of an "attacking" draft.
Put it this way. The AFL is a highly competitive business. If it were a genuine conspiracy to not select WA players that are worthy then you can bet your bottom dollar that clubs would scout and draft them anyway to try and get an advantage. I have 100% faith that clubs act in their own best interests and as a result, the draft pretty accurately reflects the relative ability of the players. MOST of the good players come from the top 20-40 (with some notable exceptions).
Also worth considering positions. Some WA player might be the 28th best player, but 4 of the top 27 play his position and he doesn't get a game because they can't shoehorn them all in.
In short, we will know if WA players have been shafted for this game at the draft (ie if 7 WA boys go top 40 or whatever). At which point it becomes irrelevant anyway because they got drafted.

I get 5 playing plus Naughton possibly playing with Peel
In underage U17 game I get
Sydney Stack
Dillon OReily
Jarrod Cameron
Xavier Peacock
Thinking of watching the Colts GF on Sunday. O'Reilly and Joyce playing for EF, and Patmore, England and Morgan playing for Claremont. Pity Carter isn't playing 
Probably skip the Reserves game and head back to watch Peel.

Naughton will be first round
Allen and Taylor second round
Patmore, and Kelly third round.
That's 5 players in the top 50.[/QUOTE]
Ainsworth and Starcevich will go close. They would seem to be better that pick 60 for example

They could go in the third round. The Five I momented will be drafted.
Watching Adelaide tonight I'd be targeting the best mid.
Blakely and Weller also need to be worked up as midfielders.
And if we can get Wilson we do that too.
We're light on skilled ball users.
