The obvious three we need

Key forward (outside of Marshall, Battle, Kerr)
Inside mid
Small forward
Ruck
Key forward Brennan Cox and Nick Larkey have played forward for their clubs but back in champs both have shown some good signs forward with Cox being the most ready. It's a terrible draft for key forwards to be honest. Trent McMullen from Murray has a nice leap and has just come back to Footy being a good basketballer, can play defence and has pinch hit in the ruck aswell. And Esava Ratugolea can play forward aswell as ruck. Inside mids later i like Luke Bunker, Corey Lyons I'll give you a few more names tomorrow when I have my Notes on me. Small forwards I like Dan Allsopp, Tom Maloney and Gill-Renouf. Main list of Ruckman all could be drafted late Goddard, Sweet, Filipovic, Darcy. Those are just a few names of the top of my head I have heaps of notes at home once I'm back I can go into more detail on those players.

Daniher
Hooker
Francis

We need to hit both up. Our ruck stocks are shocking aswell
Daniher as you say is a key forward.
Hooker is a key defender, who can be swung forward to change things up or as cover.
Francis is still a utility at this point in time too early to tell exactly where he'll be settled.

he probably knows shit all and this "source" is just BigFooty but...


not surprised if true
Wouldn't trust anything he says, that guy knows jack shit.

Would love your thoughts on some of the second round potential guys like Scharenberg, Clarke, Drew. Even Gallucci could be availabe at 19.

37 is further out but anyone take your fancy? Two names I havwnt seen people talk up enough is Brandon Parfitt and Myles Poholke. Both could be available at 37
If we got Parfitt with 37 we would win the draft

Sorry I thought you were trying to say Hooker was a key forward, my bad.

If we don't get a key forward via trade this year for mine we have to do a deal for a 2017 top 10 pick (while keeping our own 2017 1st). Gives us a crack at potentially two of: Brander (if the AFL remove him from the GWS academy), DeKoning, S.Hayes, D.Fogarty, Richards (though I think he's linked with the GWS academy too), Crossley, Coleman-Jones, etc.
