Emma Quayle phantom draft has us picking...

...Dyson Heppell!

didnt see that coming but would be rather excited as he's been tipped for picks 4 - 6 for the last 3 months.

Tall half back flanker with a penetrating left boot who can play midfield as well.

I know we are keen for a tall - but this would be a win..

By the way - Paul Daffy has us taking Gorringe at 12, but Emma is the one who is quite highly regarded in this field so will be interesting.

Daffy I guess didn't have the impression that Heppell could fall that far, surely if he did then he'd pencil us in to take him.

189cm is the cream on the cake with Heppell. The way Bailey talks about the versatility of Gysberts @ 190cm being a mid option who could have possible stints up forward you'd assume Heppell could have similar qualities despite starting from half back. Not only frees up Grimes but a versatile left footer is handy with the sub rule.

IF GC take both Gorringe and Lynch and Heppell is available @ 12 then surely we take him - I just can't see us being that lucky but we'll soon find out.

If we get another slider @ 33 I'm getting a lotto ticket.

Apparantly there are some late concerns about Heppells groins??.. Daffy thinks Brisbane will still pounce - but Quayle expects him to slide to us.

HUN also predicting Richmond to take Conca and Heppell to slide to us..

Assuming the kid's groins are okay, he would be a fair steal at 12 one would think.

best case scenario I think would be Heppel pick 12, Luke Mitchell with our second pick. It looks like players like cook and Darling will slide giving us a fair chance of getting Mitchell as well. That would be a great result

The one of the AFL website is an utter farce. He's just making it up. Tall defenders with our P2 and P3? Sure, why not you wino.

Agreed, and possibly even more ridiculous is the fact that he has us taking talls with all four picks.

Heppell and Grimes off the half back line does sound pretty good.

Heppell and Grimes off the half back line does sound pretty good.

Heppell and Strauss off half back with Grimes tearing up the midfield along with Scully and Trengove sounds better.

Here's hoping that they all push on

He was way off!
