The teams that try to buy premierships invariable fail. Go with the kids.
There are certainly four kids at East Freo who you would be more than happy to draft at our No 10 spot: Ryder, Kennedy, Clarke and Swallow. All may go top 10.
Clarke was talked about as a possible No 1 choice before the 18's carnival. Now Ryder is likely to be the first WA boy chosen.
That said, Peel and Claremont played off in the second semi so they are not short on talent either.
