Who would you prefer with the # 2 pick?

yeah very true.

Ellis has potential. but potential is the key word
billy morrison had potential too.
i saw Ellis play in gf and was watching him very closely because of all the hype surrounding him, and after that game the only reason he is up around pick2 is potential.. he was very ordinary bar a huge grab he pulled in. didnt look to have any go in him, no second efforts ect. but he is young and who knows could be great.
it is a risk for sure taking him at 2.

who would you take figjam if given the job

It's a mistake to base your opinions on one game. A better example are the games Ellis played for Vic Country where the standard was higher and he made All Australian. And don't forget he's a year younger than most of the draftees. It amazing how much some of these kids can improve in 12 months. Take Colin Sylvia as an example, he couldn't crack the Country squad as a bottom age player and won year later he goes 3rd overall in the draft. So Ellis is skinny, Gavin Brown wasn't exactly an Adonis when he broke into the side.

I'll leave it to the experts but I want them to pick the best available midfielder at 2, preferably ready made to play some senior footy in 2006. For pick 5 best available player - doesnt matter too much whether its a kpp or mid fielder - although if its a kpp we should be looking at a defender. We have tons of kpp forwards - Cloke Cloke Rusling along with Fraser Tarrant Rocca.
