If we do get Vickery I would rather Richmond grab Gugliotta instead of a ruckman again. Also intrested in why you gave Richmond Hunt?
Good effort though.

You say that Melbourne will be after a key defender at 19, but it's probably the one area that we're OK in. Garland, Rivers, Warnock, Martin, and Frawley represent our future key defensive posts.
If Zaharakis is available at 35 I doubt we'd overlook him.
I too believe that one of Sidebottom, Blease, or Hill will be available at 17.

With the talls on offer that aren't really top 10 but will still be in high demand (Brown/Lynch/McKernan/Davis/Trengove types) I think that West Coast & Melbourne will get some very nice midfielders with the PP & early 2nd rounders.
After doing a top 20 last week I was surprised at how long it actually takes to knock one out
Well Done TOA

think thats a great one mate. Read it all word for word...which i havent done with many.
I suppose this is the sort of list we could expect 'if the rumours are true'...although you have factored in club's needs and statements made by recruiters etc and a few facts about certain players and their links with clubs.
Personally, you've named my 2 hopefuls for picks 11 and 29 in Swift and Beams. Would gladly also take Sidebottom and Beams....or would be wrapped with Swft/Sidebottom + Lisle.
Thanks for the effort mate...I'd put that in the top 5 posted up so far.

good job mate
reasonably happy with the crows first 3 picks
would rather if the coin flip had have gone the other way though
(hoping it doesn't come down to a coin flip on draft day)
Heyne and Sibosado would be good pick ups in the 2nd and 3rd rounds
haven't heard of McGarry or Martin, so can't comment on that

Not thrilled with Yarran, but happy with our other picks. Hope you are wrong about Yarran though, as I'd rather a genuine mid.

Thanks for the appreciation guys.
I might even try and do profiles for the 3rd round on if I get around to it.
Will probably also juggle some of the picks around because I literally did it in a couple of hours.
Gotta say its kinda random that I picked the last 4 first rounders for the lions, dont know whats going on there.

Nice work TOA.
DeBoer concerns me though at #40. We already have enough guys on our list that have issues hitting targets.

Fantastic read as always, really look forward to your mock drafts every year. Trengove was in Adelaide saturday so hopefully that means we consider him higher than McKernan who i just have my doubts about. Look forward to comparing yours to Burgatrons on wednesday.

haha, I'm flattered you would even think to consider me against him. Give me a full time wage and his contacts and we may have a contest

De Boer is hard to place, I heard you guys were pretty keen which in PD terms means lock him in
I know have some similar types to him but its the same at WC, we just keep drafting the same type year after year and sometimes you have to come to grips with your RM liking that sort (dont mean the type that cant kick, the other attributes De Boer brings).

Yeah well yours is always well informed, i have tried to do one the last couple of years but from adelaide i find it to hard to do with limited knowledge of what interstate players and it normally leds to me overrating a couple of the SA lads.haha, I'm flattered you would even think to consider me against him. Give me a full time wage and his contacts and we may have a contest
So you've made a phantom draft? Any chance you're going to post it? As yours is the phantom draft that i'd be most intrigued to see as you have a better knowledge of WA players than most, if not alll on bigfooty
