Granted. Obviously it all hinges on what happens to those first two picks.

hmm guess they are only 17 yrs old
im a tiny bit older than some of them

how can they do that!!! just play against 25 year olds
i play footy, im 17, and to play against old ppl, who are older than u is soooo hard to do.

I reckon all 3 of those guys could be a top pick up. It does ultimately come down to what happens with the Blues, but I think Goddard would be the most "AFL-Ready", but the other 2 are obviously special players too.

Salopek's lack of pace will most likely see him as the 3rd selection.

hmm thinngy said Goddard is not the person we need (in other thread)

so i guess its wells or salopek

just gotta wait and see
