I know there has been a few threads on this guy, but I'm curious to whether or not you think he will be picked up? He was a very good junior who kind of fell of the ball in the drafting year and missed out. He has since played some very good football for Coburg and Victoria.
He is still pretty young (21 I think) and is a ready made footballer with great size, standing at 189cm and 85kg. Despite his height he is still a very good in and under extractor and can also play outside. He has good leadership and is hard at the footy.
The biggest concern with him would be his average pace and his kicking which can sometimes be wayward, as seen toward the end of the VFL season. However with proper conditioning his fitness would grow and he could potentially overcome these problems and be an AFL footballer.
In this phantom draft it has him going at pick #47. I'm kind of hoping he will last to the rookie draft so Richmond can take him, but thats probably unlikely, considering it's a shallowish draft
