Pick 13:
Tom Lynch - Tall Utility - 191cm, 84kg - Sandringham Dragons, Vic
BIO
A hard working, tall forward or defender. His versatility and football smarts are key elements to his game. He also displays a good speed-endurance combination. He showed great diligence and determination to rehabilitate his knee after undergoing reconstructive surgery in 2007. Tom has showed potential to become a future leader after he co-captained the victorious Vic Metro team during the NAB AFL U18 Championships in 2008 as well as captaining his school team, Haileybury College. Was one of the leading 190cm-plus players tested at the 2008 NAB AFL Draft Camp recording a 14.1 beep test result. He is a graduate of the AIS/AFL Academy.
Who we think he may turn out like: Jarrad Waite
Who we hope he doesn’t turn out like: James Gwilt

Pick 47:
Rhys Stanley - Ruckman - 200cm, 88.5kg - West Adelaide Bloods, SA
BIO
Developing mobile ruckman who displays a great appetite for the contest. Can take a strong contested pack mark and is equally as comfortable running down players and laying tackles. Was very impressive in South Australia’s victory over NSW/ACT in the 2008 NAB AFL U18 Championships and managed two senior games for West Adelaide (SANFL) late in the season. Jarrad didn’t attend the 2008 NAB AFL Draft Camp due to playing commitments with the Eagles in the SANFL reserves grand final. He comes from a basketball background and had played very little football until this year.
