I'm only interested by the Merv Agars Medallist.
 
I wouldn't totally rule out Port getting in a first rounder this year by the means of trading 24 and a future 2nd for Gold Coast's pick 12 or 15. Maybe more a deal that gets done draft night if they see Cumming or Phillipou drop. I wouldn't do it pre-draft night though.

Prospects I would look at for us:

1. Blake Oudshoorn-Bennier (MID)
2. Latrelle Sumner-Pickett (Small FWD)
3. Felix Kneipp (MID)
4. Tom Burton (MID)
5. Zane Peucker (MID/FWD)
6. Jhett Dahlitz (HB)
7. Tairon Ah-Mu (Ruck/FWD)
8. Brodie Atkins (MID)
9. Charlie McKinnon (FWD)

Expect these guys to be in around our first 2 picks. If a Harley Barker or Lachy Dovaston fell through then I'd be keen on thsoe two as well.

Byron Pickett Junior? isn't he up for grabs? Definitely Latrelle though and I hope they get him.
 
Byron Jnr is nowhere near AFL worthy at this stage
I haven't watched him thoroughly to be fair. I've seen more from Latrelle though. Would it be more worth while using a rookie spot on Byron Junior? He is 20 i believe. Although they'd probably get Rome Burgoyne and that on rookie spots ?

There's 0% chance Byron Jnr gets drafted imo
 
Bryon Jnr could get drafted if Port ever considers him as a Maggies top-up player first.

Get him into the SANFL system first and see if he has it.
Yeah but there's no chance he's getting on the AFL list for at least next year

Given we have more open list spaces than worthwhile draft picks, I wouldn’t be shocked to see us pass on 1 or 2 and have another SSP train off over the summer.

I'm going to dream a bit but Sam Cumming would be an awesome Ollie Wines replacement. I love the way he plays.

Would be great if Port could somehow nab another second rounder and Draft Latrelle Sumner Pickett and one of Harvey Barker, Lachy Dovaston, Jevan Phillipou or Matthew LeRay. If Sam Cumming slid to Port's first pick, I'll take him in a heartbeat. If Cody Curtin makes it our last pick in the draft, I'll take him and get Rome Burgoyne in the rookie draft.

Think Port might draft three to four players
 
Cal Twomey's next group outside the top 30


This goes to show how widely open the rankings are in this year's draft. The amazing thing is, despite the clueless media calling it a bad draft, the only part of the draft that is average is the first rounder compared to other years. The names I mentioned above, I'd take most of them at our 1st pick (24). While Cal doesn't have anyone but Pickett is in "next 15" group. Not doubting the guru, he's awesome at what he does but normally there is a general consensus for each prospect. I dont think we'll get more than 60 picks in the draft next year and we could virtually be having 30 (expect this pick to slide back), 40 and 50 (with the latter two picks coming in).

If it ends up that way, my first thoughts are that we should go with BOB, Pickett and Peucker with McKinnon in the rookie draft. I'll probably change this a million times before draft night depending on how our trade period goes.
 
Collecting 2nd and 3rd rounders in this draft would not be a terrible idea.

They will slide in a lot more than usual given how compromised it is and the new points system.
Don't forget as well that you have some talent from the previous draft carrying over, especially in the talls department like Burmeister, Clancy Dennis, Adrian Cole and mids like Sulzberger etc.

Adrian Cole particularly, given our need for a lockdown defender, I think is worth a rookie spot
