Assuming we take a player at pick 11 and hyperthetically all 3 players were still available to us.
Who are you taking?


Nate Caddy

Height: 193cm
Weight: 88k

Caddy is a rare athlete with exciting aerial ability and a much improved endurance base. Recruiters will likely be enamoured by the way he addressed a couple of his growth areas this year, mainly being his set shot conversion and running capacity. Both are great traits to have in his role, which will likely be as a third marking tall or half-forward who presents up the ground. He’s a top 10 talent and should be snapped up within that range.

STRENGTHS:

  • Aerial ability
  • Overhead marking
  • Reach
  • Speed
  • Scoreboard impact
  • Upside

IMPROVEMENTS:

  • Ground balls
  • In-between size




James Leake

Height: 187cm
Weight: 77kg

Leake is a prospect whose upside is evident across a promising athletic profile and terrific versatility. AFL clubs will appreciate that they can mould the Tasmanian into no one particular archetype, instead having the flexibility to use him in whatever way is required. That aspect can work two ways, but given his talent and exposed form across the ground, he looms as a true first round bolter.


STRENGTHS:

  • Athleticism
  • Decision making
  • Marking
  • Skills
  • Versatility

IMPROVEMENTS:
  • Four-quarter consistency
  • Strength




Connor O'Sullivan

Height: 198cm
Weight: 92kg

Perhaps only 197cm West Australian standout Daniel Curtin can claim to be more proven in the way of versatility among this year’s tall cohort, but O’Sullivan certainly has similar potential. Likely to continue his work as a key defender at the next level, the Albury native is undeniably a top 15 prospect and may even warrant selection within the first 10 picks. He can do things not many 198cm players are capable of.


STRENGTHS:

  • Aerial ability
  • Composure
  • Intercept marking
  • Mobility
  • Running capacity
  • Versatility

IMPROVEMENTS:

  • Defensive accountability
  • Forward craft

Charlie. Doubt either would be available, but there will be a stack of shocks in this one I think.
Honestly Charlie could be available at Adelaide if we do the trade back.
