[Harris Specter]

Apologies, been away on work and have limited access to internet.

Pick 34: St Kilda - Alex Martini. Tackling machine, a real in and under player.

Pick 34: St Kilda - Joel Garner. Vic metro captain plays across half back and uses his lethal left foot very well.

Try again

If time was limited why did you take a spot?

It's taken one week to pick 34 players, the clubs take an hour to get this far, lol

Geelong: Pick 35

Oscar Clavarino - KPD

With Mackie and Lonergan retiring Geelong need to sure up their KPD stocks.

Going to take a punt on the other WAFL standout in Liam Ryan at pick 36. Keeping the wafl guys together who have turned it on this year and can impact the Dees in 2018 as they push for the flag. Very needs based drafting.

37 - Jackson Edwards

I'm surprised there isn't more excitement around Edwards. The fact Adelaide have only committed to him as a rookie really surprises me. Every time I've seen him play, I've been very impressed. Just a really slick player with great vision and better skills than many in this pool. I haven't seen him spoken about much at all anywhere, so perhaps I am wrong in rating him this highly. But I'm a fan.

Collingwood selects .....

38. HARRISON PETTY

Key Defender, 194cm, 82kg, Norwood/South Australia

Petty is a bit of a smoky but at 194cm he will be a nice key position player and god knows Collingwood are looking to bolster their stocks. He reads the ball really well in flight and has good game sense and positioning as a defender. Another South Australian for the pies!

Reminder to tag the person drafting after your pick pls.

Pick 39: Jordan Houlahan

Houlahan is a leaping mid-sized forward from Sturt.

Adelaide will be looking for a damaging player with this pick, particularly if they selected a key defender in the first round like I did. Given the quality of their list I don't think they'll have a problem punting on a mercurial type, and the fact that Houlahan is a South Australian makes this a slam dunk should he be still available.

Ideally the Crows would prefer an outside runner, I think, but they'd snap up Houlahan if he slides.

Pick 40 - Tom McCartin (193cm KPF)

I feel like we lack a medium forward who can link up down the ground. So Tom would be a good fit. Has good endurance and a good leap. He is a Geelong Falcon boy, so there is that bonus too (we have a few of them now).

Pick 41 - Brandon Starcevich (187cm, 88kg, balanced midfielder)
Trying to add more players who could be long-term midfield options for the Suns, particularly on the inside. Starcevich fits the bill as a ball-winning midfielder who loves the contest and is good for multiple efforts. Only seen a few highlight videos of him, but he's generally a good decision-maker who possesses a lengthy kick. Hails from East Perth, hopefully not the homesick type (I have no idea how he's perceived in that regard).

countryVicLion tag, you're it.

Fremantle Pick 42 Bailey Banfield
Local Lad
Tasted senior WAFL footy in his draft year, On Baller won Claremont’s best and fairest after a brilliant yet consistent 2017 campaign, which saw him drop below 20 disposals in only two of his 20 games. Banfield was then the top performer in both the standing and running vertical jumps at the WA state Combine
Nice age bracket and improvement still left in him

I see Hawthorne's greatest need is for some Kpd depth.
After Frawley and Kaiden Brand they really dont have much, so further to this I think that Jackson Payne is possible to get a bid from this time on.

PICK 43: HAWTHORNE

JACK PAYNE
15/10/99
195cm/93kg
By the look of him, he is a little heavier than this now.
Noosa
Key defender

"He has really good speed and has that body shape that allows him to match up on the strong bodies. He's clean at ground level and kicks the ball pretty well out of defence. Jack's a x discus thrower from Noosa, and is a really good size.

More likely that we’re at the point where most people (including myself) have little knowledge of the players this far in.

Sorry! Will pick at my lunch break!

Ditto!

Dreading trying to make a sensible sdelection for Port at 46

 

[Dom PC]

Pick 44 - Callum Coleman-Jones (201cm Ruckman)

IMO Martin only has one decent year left at best. The way I read it Cullum is a similar style ruckman and we will benefit from having developed ruck options in the near future.

(FYI I have my doubts about Archie Smith hence this selection)

Summary Profile: Composed half-back flanker who is an able stopper and uses the ball cleanly out of defence. Also has capability to push through the midfield.
