Pick 1. Jonathon Patton (Eastern Ranges)
Height: 197cm
Weight: 96kg
Key position prospects who will be our main man up forward for the next 10 years. He has a rare combination of size, power and talent. Said to be one of the best prospects to come out of the TAC Cup in some time.

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHsUU1SK10c&feature=player_embedded



Pick 2.  Stephen Coniglio (Swan Districts)
Height: 182cm
Weight: 76kg
A multi-sport star who has been touted as a future gun ever since his four-goal WAFL grand final in 2010. Ticks nearly all the boxes as a modern midfielder and will be ready to step in straight away. He'll fit in nicely alongside Scully, Ward and Palmer in the midfield.

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glAJH62b8dc&feature=player_embedded



Pick 3.  Dom Tyson (Oakleigh Chargers)

Height: 186cm
Weight: 82kg
A smooth midfielder whose only chink may be that he lacks a metre of pace. What he lacks though, he more than makes up for with the speed at which his brain works. He thinks a step ahead of most, and his ball skills are elite.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GmBfN33442Q



Pick 4. Matt Buntine (Dandenong Stingrays)
Height: 188cm
Weight: 83kg
Rock solid prospect who excels as a mid-sized defender but can also play through the midfield. Uses the ball well and reads the play well. He is an outstanding leader who will add to the Giants' crop of up-and-coming stars.

Article with video: http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/matthew-buntine-is-a-born-leader/story-fnau1fjg-1226183939445



Pick 5. Chad Wingard (Sturt)
Height: 181cm
Weight: 68kg
Once considered a surefire top-three pick, Wingard's stock fell a touch after an injury-interrupted national carnival and some underwhelming test results. However, he boasts an elite left foot, plenty of class and has been destined for GWS for a long time.

Pick #6 Port Adelaide - Mitchell Grigg - Norwood 183cm 81kg D.O.B 02/01/1993

Port Adelaide to choose local boy, who is a genuine midfield prospect, the sort you can build a side around. He goes out and plays consistent footballer every week. Has been in excellent form for Norwood reserves this season getting BOG many times and racking up the touches, 25-30 most weeks, clearly a class above that level. Grigg is a dominant inside midfielder who wins his ball at will but can translate that to damaging outside play in a flash, especially when using his ripping left-boot, he can hoof it when required. Smart player and plays the game above the shoulders...thinks things through and doesn't panic, picks the first option most times but he always seems to make the right decisions. Port need someone who can make any decision...so he's a good start. Ready to play...he's a workhorse but with a bit of hurt factor unlike most inside players. Can see him translating to a long term 250+ AFL gamer if injuries of course don't hamper his future.bit off still. So no point picking on needs so it is best available.

Edit: fixed pick no.

Pick 7. Will Hoskin-Elliott (Western Jets)
Height: 182cm
Weight: 73kg
Hoskin-Elliott has all the attributes coaches love in a footballer; he wins his own ball, uses both sides of his body as required, keeps his feet and is a one touch player. That combination is a sought after one which is because players like this rarely turn the ball over.

Brisbane
Pick 8:


Adam Tomilnson
HT: 192cm
WT: 85Kg

Strong overhead and a good kick and his results at the Draft Combine show this. Finished in the top 15 in the following 3km time trial (equal 7th), beep test (equal 10th) and kicking assessement (83% efficiency). Lions need a future KPP and we believe Adam can cover this for us





NB: I wont be around again until late this afternoon, so if we get to pick 12  ;D I'll post as soon as I get back  :thumbsup
Title: Re: PHANTOM DRAFT 2011
Post by: JVT on November 05, 2011, 04:05:02 PM
Pick 9. Elliott Kavanagh (Western Jets)
Height: 187cm
Weight: 78kg

Elliot Kavanagh is a highly rated young midfielder who we have seen very little of this year. Despite his absence from key games, Kavanagh fortunately has already shown us enough over his junior football career to get drafted and he has enough time left in the year to impress and push for a top 10 pick.

Kavanagh is one of the more complete midfielders in this draft. He uses the football well, has great decision making, has pace, works hard and can win his own football when required. If he hadn’t of spent much of this year injured I suspect he would have been taken with one of our first 5 picks.

Article: http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/kav-back-with-a-bang/story-fn53klc6-1226087398601




Pick 10. Liam Sumner (Sandringham Dragons)

Height: 182cm
Weight: 70kg

He is an outside, ball carrying midfielder who oozes x-factor. Sumner is highly rated for his run and carry; he’s the sort of player who hurts you with every single possession he gets by running his full measure and using his great foot skills to deliver the ball effectively.
The main knock on Sumner is that we haven’t seen an ability to play ‘inside’ football and win his own ball. As a consequence he rarely racks up big numbers in terms of possessions.

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzMZ2WHWFO8&feature=player_embedded



Pick 11. Billy Longer (Northern Knights)
Height: 202cm
Weight: 95kg

Want to take a ruckman with one of our early picks, and Billy Longer is the most talked about draft prospect when it comes to ruckmen. The 202cm big man has really improved his game over the last 12 months from a good ruckman who can rotate forward to a dominant ruckman, who hits second and third efforts hard and can kick goals.

Longer is quick over the ground for a big man and doesn’t struggle at ground level which means he has been compared to Dean Cox by a few onlookers, whilst there is merit in the comparison, Longer will need to improve his endurance to reach that standard.

Post by: WilliamPowell on November 05, 2011, 05:22:56 PM
Brisbane
Pick 12:


Taylor Adams
HT: 181cm
WT: 80Kgs

Describe as a natural leader (he captained the Geelong Falcons in 2011) an in under ball winner, who makes good decisions and is a great kick. With the loss of Luke Power we need someone who can develop into that sort of role, we believe that Taylor can do that
Title: Re: PHANTOM DRAFT 2011
Post by: JVT on November 05, 2011, 06:13:37 PM
Pick 13. Toby Greene (Oakleigh Chargers)
Height: 180cm
Weight: 78kg

Greene’s combination of toughness and decision making make him a very dangerous midfield player as he can win the ball himself or take on the role of an outside midfielder depending on what the team needs.

Clearances are perhaps one of the most important things in modern football and they are something you either know how to win or you don’t… Greene does and regularly won that stat at the championships.

Article and Video: http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/toby-greene-a-ball-magnet/story-fnau1fjg-1226176698992



Pick 14. Todd Elton (Dandenong Stingrays)

Height: 197cm
Weight: 90kg

Todd Elton is an AIS-AFL Academy graduate from Vic Country and is exactly the sort of forward/second ruckmen clubs look for at the moment and an absolute steal at 14.

Elton is capable of playing the key forward role as a marking player or Nick Riewoldt style with superior endurance/work rate to his opponents. Like Riewoldt though it would be nice to see him convert a greater percentage of his opportunities.

When playing on the ball Elton really adds something to the midfield. At ground level he’ll compete and tackle whilst also using his speed and endurance to collect plenty of disposals. In the actual ruck contests his size and leap allow him to compete well.

agree...and some of the "experts" (or so called) don't have him going til later in the draft - be happy having a good look at him if he slid as far as our first pick (depending on who else is avail  at the time)...

and for the record - good phantom draft so far guys...making for interesting read...cheers

Selection #15 Devon Smith (Geelong Falcons)

(http://img214.imageshack.us/img214/6287/devonsmith.jpg) (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/214/devonsmith.jpg/)

DOB: 20/05/93
Height:175cm
Weight: 73Kg

Although only 175cm this Kid is very good and delighted that we were able to pick him up at #15. Initially will play as a small forward as he is a genuine goal kicker but once he develops more bulk (already has good core strength) he will be a good inside midfielder for us. He is lightning fast, has excellent agility and good all round disposal skills. He has great awareness through traffic and in round 2 of the under 18 champs he kicked 6 goals and had 27 disposals.

At the Combine he was top 10 in Beep Test/shuttle run (10th) Clean hands (9th) 30m repeat sprints (3rd) and standing vertical jump (7th).

He's been likened to Brent Harvey and Gary Ablett Jr.

I understand what you mean MT but I went for the best available player who has Inside mid potential. Devon is strong and i believe he will Bulk up. He has similarities to Foley. All the other bigger bodied mids that are left after the GWS decimation are all flanker or receiving type mids. There is one other player I have lined up for our next pick which might be a bit more to your liking but is a little bit of a gamble.

I actually dont mind Tiga's selection at all. Smith can play. If he plays forward we have a replacement for King and if he can play in midfield he can develop into a quality rover type. I'm hoping on draft day he slides because of his size and he's there at 26.

Yes I am, sorry I thought I was pick 18...

#16 - Fraser McInnes (WA – KPF/KPD)

Looking to replace Pav. Local boy.

Key position player with great potential at his size. Strong mark overhead. Very mobile and should grow out well. Has had some injury difficulties but looks good. Versatility is there for him to play a range of positions, but possibly like him more as a key forward. 1st round quality talent who despite not playing throughout the U18 champs is slowly rising up the standings.

Western Bulldogs
Pick 17:


Sam Docherty
HT: 183cm
WT: 85Kg

Strong mark for his size with super quick hands. Has been described as an elite kick & decision maker. At 85Kgs already has the size to play at the top level in 2012. Represented VIC country in 2011. Bulldogs believe he can hold down a running/rebounding HB role early in his career with the view of moving him into the mid-field in the future

Selection #18 Nick Haynes (Dandenong Stingrays)
(http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/3117/nickhaynes316a2.jpg) (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/685/nickhaynes316a2.jpg/)

Date of birth: 18/05/92
Height: 191cm
Weight: 76Kg

We were looking for a tall utility player and Nick fits the bill perfectly. He is very good overhead, has great motor and can run all day.
He also has excellent leg speed. At the Draft Combine he came 5th in the 3km time trial. Needs to develop some upper body strength but he has the frame to do it.
He won the Dandenong Stingrays Best and Fairest award for season 2011

Pick 19...Daniel Markworth (Calder Cannons) 189cm 76kg


Midsized utility who is yet to find his ideal position. Playing mostly as a medium marking forward for Calder, very very fast on the lead, safe hands and generally an accurate shot on goal - averages over 2 a game. But he has spent time in the middle, and it's as a future ruck-rover I'm picking him. He is raw in terms of positioning etc, but his athleticism and pace are impressive, and the cleanness of his ball-handling and his ability to break away from a pack are eyecatching qualities and hint at what he could be a few years down the track.

Good height and despite being a little light at the moment, has the sort of frame that should fill out into a pretty formidable specimen. Can probably play as a forward from day 1 (just plonk him in the square or a pocket and have him burn off his man on a lead) and would demand a fast backman who's strong overhead, which would draw heat from Jurrah, but a better long-term move might be to have him play onball for Casey for a couple of years and make a lightning-fast, big-bodied midfielder out of him.

#20 - Brandon Ellis - Height: 181cm Weight: 81kg - Calder Cannons

A smart, versatile footballer who can read the play well and has good skills by hand or foot. He also can win his own ball and doesn't rely on being constantly fed it to have an impact in his position. Not only that he can shut down an opponent, tackle well and is not all one way.

I hope smokey doesn't mind me jumping in as Sydney's pick is Father-Son Tom Mitchell.


22. Carlton - Jackson Paine (21/06/1993, 194cm, 87kg, Sandringham Dragons)

Key forward/CHF who played in Sandringham Dragons' premiership side this year. Moves well for his size and is a strong mark on the lead with clean hands and a good kick. Averaged 3.6 tackles per game in the TAC Cup this year so he's not just a mark and kick forward but has a defensive side to his game as well. The one knock on Paine is he can drift in and out of games and that he had Patton next to him taking the best defender in the U18 Champs but he finished the year strongly for Sandy Dragons and in the Grand Final win had 17 disposals and kicked 2 goals on top of playing on after half-time despite a broken thumb. The Blues are looking for more genuine key forwards so Paine is a good choice for them.

Great Athleticism and not afraid to put himself about. Disposal can improve. He is a Patterson Stadium type player and the development at the Eagles should see him become a very good CHB going forward.

24. GCS -   Julian Dobosz        North Hobart, Age: 18, 193cm, 85kg

My take below:
Gold Coast Suns: their first season was always going to be a difficult mission out, but the team managed to show some positive signs from an elite ruckman in the making, an emerging midfield division and some mature hard body backline players. What was evident in a number of games was that they were missing the presence of a strong bodied foward: Enter Juilian Dobosz at age 18 and already 193cm this 85kg kid will fill the void of missing foward. Has shown is a great contested mark and can kick a bag of goals. Can also rest the man tower Zac Smith in foward line and resume ruckwork around ground.
With some solid pre seasons under his belt we are looking at a league leading foward

Pick 25   Saints   Shane Nelson Mid WA
Slightly undersized midfielder who I think is a ripper. Runs all day and is able to kick the footy with super efficiency. May not be the type of player who is an absolute need for the Saints, but who cares because we all hate them anyway. He is a more than adequate addition to Saints experienced midfield. I also think Nelson has the ability to be a dangerous small forward.

Pick #26 Brad McKenzie (Sturt)
(http://img190.imageshack.us/img190/5233/bradm.jpg) (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/190/bradm.jpg/)

DOB: 29/5/93. Ht: 188cm. Wt: 75kg.
Pos: Medium defender.

Brad is one of the best kicks in this years draft. Whilst he is listed as a medium defender, given time to develop, he will make an excellent medium midfielder with both inside and outside attributes. He also is very good overhead and has strong hands. The Richmond Football Club is rapt that he made it to selection 26 as we were certain he would go much earlier.
Whilst he does not possess explosive speed over 10m, over 20m he really kicks into another gear and shows true pace.   

Check out his video and you will see that this kid is all class.

Flags, In the combine He came 7th in the agility run with an 8.12 (7.80 was first) and he did the 20m sprint in 3.08 sec so I wouldn't call him slow, but more like deceptively quick.

WP, remember what David Astbury looked like when he came to the club? Despite the 7cm height difference, I would put Brad in the same mould as Astbury.

Selection 28: West Coast Eagles - Tom Sheridan 185cm and 76kg Calder Cannons
Produced some outstanding results at the camp. 9.57 for the 3km time trial to finish 3rd overall, 15.7 for the Beep to finish 3rd overall and 83% kicking efficiency to finish equal 9th position. Good in the contest and was captain of his side for about 6 weeks which shows potential leadership. West Coast is very happy to have Tom Sheridan join Sam Frost as our first two picks. Richmond should have selected better in the phantom draft.  ;D

#29 - Fremantle - Shane Kersten (Height: 190cm Weight: 88kg)

Freo are delighted that Shane is still available at #29. Strong leading forward who performed well for WA last year, but missed this year due to a shoulder injury. Has everything you want from a key forward, with strong hands and being a good shot on goal.

Ross Lyon says:
We rated Shane in our top 3 players so to get him at #29 was a great bonus for us. Under my coaching regime though, he'll waste away in the WAFL for 5 years, learning the finer points of our dour defensive style and having his creativeness and love for the game sapped from him, while super recruit Hack Dawson and some other recycled average player get a game ahead of him.

Not going to bag this one tiga as he's a good height although at AFL level I see McKenzie playing HBF rather than in the middle unless he can put on 10kgs in the gym. He's slim for a 6' 2" kid.

Hardwick with his Hawthorn coaching background may take a liking to a skillful lefty who can hoof it for tactical reasons. It's not as though we don't need more good kicks across the ground especially with the zoning and press in modern footy.

Fair enough MT. I'm more interested in whether he can play than how much he weighs at 17 and I think he's one of the best in the draft in that respect.
We'll see in time how he works out.

Pick 35 SAINTS Hayden Schloithe Fwd/Mid WA
Lightening quick medium forward who you would hope can run through the midfield in time. Schloithe is an exciting prospect who will begin his career as a forward who will have the dual role of kicking goals and using his speed to create defensive pressure in the fwd line. I think the Saints need a bit of X factor and this bloke has it.

Pick 36. Melbourne - Sebastian Ross (07/05/1993, 187cm, 82kg, North Ballarat Rebels)

After losing Scully to GWS, the Demons decide to replenish their midfield stocks with Seb Ross who is a medium-sized midfielder rated for his good footskills (left footer), smarts in traffic and tackling pressure. In his 12 TAC Cup appearances this year he was named in the bests 8 times averaging 25 disposals, 4.5 marks, 3.5 tackles and 10 handball receives per game. So he can find the footy himself as well as link up in the play. The query on him is over his athleticism (he's more a natural footballer) but he has the body to play some senior AFL games next year and at pick 36 could turn out to be a steal.

Pick 36. Melbourne - Sebastian Ross (07/05/1993, 187cm, 82kg, North Ballarat Rebels)

After losing Scully to GWS, the Demons decide to replenish their midfield stocks with Seb Ross who is a medium-sized midfielder rated for his good footskills (left footer), smarts in traffic and tackling pressure. In his 12 TAC Cup appearances this year he was named in the bests 8 times averaging 25 disposals, 4.5 marks, 3.5 tackles and 10 handball receives per game. So he can find the footy himself as well as link up in the play. The query on him is over his athleticism (he's more a natural footballer) but he has the body to play some senior AFL games next year and at pick 36 could turn out to be a steal.

LOL tiga.


Pick 37. St Kilda - Alex Brown (DOB: 26/9/93. Ht: 191 km. Wt: 80kg)

With the loss of Dawson, the Saints go for a young mobile tall defender from the Oakleigh Chargers who had the second best kicking skills at the Draft Combine. Brown had an injury interrupted year missing the TAC Cup finals but he did play in the U18 Champs for Vic Metro and still played 9 games in the TAC Cup averaging 15 disposals. He also played 12 TAC Cup matches in 2010.

Pick 38.........Henry Schade
Position: Tall Defender
Height: 194m
Weight: 81kg


A tall defender with good agility and great closing speed Good in a one-on-one situationRaking left foot kick. Schade represented Tasmania at this years Under 18 championships and was solid enough to earn All Australian selection.Schade is a tall defender who has the height and athletic scope required to play on the tall forwards of today. His agility is great for a tall unit, and combined with his great closing speed makes him a versitile player.

He reads the play well and as such is good in a one-on-one contest. His raking left foot kick also allows him to clear the defensive 50 with ease.

Henry Schade Highlights

Western Bulldogs
Pick 39:


Lachlan Smith
HT: 190cm
WT: 80Kg

Finished in the top 15 at the combine in the kicking assessment. In considrered a medium forward. Showed great improvment as the TAC Cup season went on. Very strong hands and is good mark on the lead and in contested situations. Is a solid kick on either side of his body as his combine results show. Bulldogs are hoping to use Lachlan as a leading target across HF

(http://img840.imageshack.us/img840/2930/9hillbradley2011a.jpg) (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/840/9hillbradley2011a.jpg/)


DOB: 9/7/93. Ht: 178cm. Wt: 72kg.
Pos: Small midfielder.

North are very pleased to select Bradley Hill with pick 40. Brother of Fremantle's Stephen Hill. We were looking for a player with elite athleticism who could run all day with a view to replacing Brent Harvey when he retires and we believe Brad will fit the bill perfectly.
Amazing combine results including a record breaking 16.1 in the beep test/shuttle run. Brad also came 1st in the 3km time trial, 5th in the 20m sprint and 10th in the 30m sprint.

Selection #41 - Cameron Ellis-Yolmen
191cm, 88kg, Woodville West Torrens

Adelaide go with a local boy with their 2nd pick of the draft.  Adelaide need midfielders, now that they have sured up their defence with Talia.  CEY is a genuine big-bodied midfielder, with the tank of a shorter and lighter midfielder.  Averaged 30 touches a game at U18 level in South Australia, as well as 5 clearances.

Pick 42. St Kilda - Clay Smith (11/05/1993, 180cm, 78kg, Gippsland Power)

After going tall in previous picks the Saints select Clay Smith who is a in and under midfielder and clearance winner who averaged 17 disposals and 4 tackles per game in the U18 Championships for Vic Country. In the draft combine he was sixth in the beep test (15.3) so he has good endurance and he's known for his ferocious tackling and ability to stand up in and break tackles. He can also go forward and kick goals. The one knock is his kicking isn't what you would call lace-out which is why he'll slip down the draft order but he is an accumulator of the footy (avg. 26 possies in the TAC Cup this season) and he'll compliment a Saints midfield where he could continually feed the likes of Dal Santo and Montagna.

With pick #43 Sydney choose Josh Bootsma.  With a gameplan that relies heavily on run out of the backline, he will fill the gap created by the retirement of Taigh Keneally and the club is very happy that he unexpectedly slipped this far in the draft.  Fremantle wanted to select him under the father/son rule but were ruled ineligible by the AFL.  He is 190cm tall, quick and competitive, and played Colts football with South Fremantle in 2010 averaging 12.1 disposals in 13 games.

Pick 44. Carlton - Sam Dwyer  (29/08/1986, 179cm, 78kg, Port Melbourne)

A bit left-field to go with a mature state league player here but Carlton are ready to challenge as a top side now so adding a ready-made 25 year old at this stage of the draft isn't out of the question. Pick 44 is also Carlton's last live pick. Dwyer is a footy smart midfielder/forward with good skills and pace who was arguably Port Melbourne's best player in their premiership year this season and starred in the VFL Grand Final win.
Title: Re: PHANTOM DRAFT 2011

Pick 45. Port Adelaide: Alex Forster (14/07/1993, 189cm, 81kg, Norwood)

Port select a home grown medium defender/utility who won All-Australia honours in 2011 and who played senior footy for Norwood in the SANFL. Forster is dual-sided, has good hands, is a strong overhead mark and reads the play well. He is also versatile in that he can play across half-back and through the midfield.

Started the year in the WAFL Colts and represented WA in the under 18's championships. Made his senior WAFL debut in Rd 21. Brisbane need tall defenders and we feel he can develop over time. Certainly needs to add some size but  few solid pre-season should cover that off

Good results at the draft combine. Equal 2nd in the kicking assessment, 1st in the agility run, equal 7th in the running vertical jump. He came first & set a new record for the standing vertical jump of 78cm which although equalled Naitinui's jump in 2008, it's listed as a new record because Yeo's smaller height  ;D

Will need to build size & strength but the Doggies are impressed with Yeo's strongfinishing skills

#50 - Lee Spurr - DOB 27/7/87 Ht 182 Wt 79

Spurr is a utility type of player capable of playing down back, through the middle or up forward.

He is a mature guy who can come in and play right away and organise the defence like Duigan did for Carlton this year. He is not as good a defender as Duigan is but going forward is equally good directing traffic and superior with his run off and long kicking.

Add some more depth for FIGJAM's flag tilt.

Pick 51. Port Adelaide - Tom Downie (27/04/1993, 205cm, 95kg, North Ballarat Rebels)

Port will be looking to refill their ruck stocks with Brogan gone and heading up to GWS. Downie is a 205cm tall ruckman from an elite basketball background where he represented Australia at U17 level. Very much a project type (not really a big deal for rucks taken this late in the draft) as he's only played 2 TAC Cup games late in the season after playing mostly school footy for St Pats Ballarat but in them he showed enough natural talent to like with his athleticism, game awareness and tap-work to advantage. Averaged 13 possies and 13 hitouts. He needs to work on his running game and match endurance which isn't surprising given his basketball background although he did test above 14 in the beep test at the Draft Combine so he still does have natural endurance. His 3km time trial was 11.40.

Pick 52. Melbourne - Fletcher Roberts (3/6/1993, 193-5cm, 81-4kg, Sandringham Dragons)

AFL recruiters love a kid who stands up on the big stage in big games and Roberts fits the bill kicking 5 goals including 4 in the last quarter of the TAC Cup Grand Final in Sandringham Dragon's come from behind win. The Demons are also looking to add to their tall forward stocks so he fits their needs as well. A key forward known for his footy smarts, use of his body in contests and good skills.

At TAC Cup level Roberts also pinch-hitted in the ruck but at 193-195cm tall (there's some discrepancy regarding his true height in the various sources) that might not be his go at AFL level.

Pick 53 Hawthorn

Tom Curran
Height: 195cm
Weight: 86kg
DOB: 18/9/1993
Club: Oakleigh Chargers



Represented Vic Metro in three games at the Under 18 Championships. He is a hard working key position player, son of former Hawk Peter Curran. Is very well built, a good kick and loves the hard contests.Curran like his old man is known for his marking ability and although we didn’t get to see much of it at the U18 Championships, let me assure you he can take a good mark.
He will be a development forward but is well worth the risk at pick 53.

Josh Tynan (Gippsland Power)
(http://img402.imageshack.us/img402/5868/tynanjosh246b.jpg) (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/402/tynanjosh246b.jpg/)

DOB: 06/11/93
Height: 185cm
Weight: 76Kg

How in the hell this kid made it to 55 is beyond us, but we consider ourselves very, very fortunate to snag such a talented player at such a late stage in the draft.
Josh is a quality backman who is excellent overhead and takes a great contested mark. He has good leg speed and an excellent leap allowing him to play on taller players. He has been regularly ranked as a top 30 draft prospect.

Take a look at his youtube video and you will see that this kid has great potential. Playing style is similar to Jake Batchelor.

Great pick Tiga, stole our man with the pick before. Tynan is a talent and will not be around this pick in the real draft.



 Pick 56. Joel Hamling (Claremont)
Height: 193cm
Weight: 78kg

Mobile forward playing in the Colts in WAFL who can also play in defence and ruck. Impressive for WA against NT and Tasmania in the NAB AFL Under 18 Championships, averaging five marks. Has proven to be an effective ruckman with great tap work and aggression around the ground. Has plenty of potential and talent and I wouldn't be suprised to see him snapped up in the top 30, so to get him at 56 is fantastic for GWS.

Western Bulldogs
Pick 57:


Setanta O'Hailpin

WT: 100Kg
Forward/Ruck

An insurance (read cheap) pick for the Doggies here. With a lack of big bodied key forwards the Doggies are looking to O'Hailpin to fill the gap left with the retirement of Barry Hall. The hope is that it will take some of the pressue off their young still developing KP forwards

Pick 58 - Sam Kerridge (VIC - Mid) Height: 188cm, Weight: 84kg, DOB: 26/04/1993

Really powerful midfielder. Racks up big numbers through the midfield. Always looks dangerous when he gets near it and gets big clearance numbers. Strong mark overhead. Effective when he shifts forward. Endurance is elite. Really great size and can get among the goals.

60. St Kilda - Lachlan Dalgleish 
Ht: 185cm

Med Midfielder

The Saints need pace and Dalgleish has plenty. An outside mid who's a good left foot kick to go with his speed. Had very little time to properly prepare for the Combine due to injury but still managed to come in 4th in the Agility run and 3rd in the 20m sprint (0.01 sec off equal 1st) at the Combine

The Swans are very happy (again) that a player we wanted has slipped through to us late in the draft.  Murdoch was eligible for the 2010 draft but a broken hand ended that and he has climbed through the ranks at Glenelg this year to end up in the senior side in Round 21, making the SA Under 18 side as an over age player also.  His main attribute is his pace and at this years state screening he recorded a faster time for the 20mt sprint than any player in the Draft Combine.  He is very skillful, classy left footer and we see him adding to the pace and attacking potential of our side in the future.

I'll do the Saints next pick so we'll get this finish by tomorrow.

Pick 68. St Kilda - Nathan Blee (7/9/90, 192cm, 80kg, East Perth)

Mature age (21 y.o.) versatile tall defender who after playing midfield in his junior years came from nowhere in his debut year of senior WAFL footy to finish third in East Perth's B&F as well as being named in the WAFL's team of the year at full back. Blee has good closing speed, positioning and is rarely beaten one-on-one. In 19 games this year he averaged 3.5 marks and just over 4 spoils a game. His junior midfield experience enables him to provide rebound from the back half (avg. 14 disposals per game) which is important for a modern backman. The query on him is whether with further development he'll end up at AFL full-back or a third tall. He also missed the Draft Combine in October with glandular fever so there's no comparison stats to fully judge his overall athleticism against other draftees.

Pick 79. Brendan Fevola (Casey Scorpions)
Height: 191cm
Weight: 100kg
Kevin insists on some media hype and wants to throw a lifeline to the troubled forward. Will provide solid mentoring to the young blokes (As he did with Mohr) and also enables us to have the best opposition defender play on him instead of Patton.

Pick 87. Kyal Horsley (Subiaco)
Height: 182cm
Weight: 88kg

Horsley, a strong-bodied midfielder, has attracted interest from several clubs after winning Subiaco's best and fairest count and coming second in the Sandover Medal. After running over the draft we are shocked to see he hasn’t been taken and quickly pounce at 87.

Video: http://www.youtube.com/user/richoafl?blend=1&ob=5#p/u/0/3BlH233JGuE


Pick 90. Jordan Kelly (Dandenong Stingrays)
Height:192 cm
Weight: 81kg

Kelly is a real competitor who we didn't see the best of this year due to injury. Once again shocked to see he wasn’t picked up by another club despite the risk, and are delighted to see him as a part of GWS in 2012. He is strong in a one-on-one contest and disposes of the ball cleanly. It won't be beyond him to play some senior footy next year if his body stays sound.

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsrdeNniPAc


Pick 92. Brett O’Hanlon (Dandenong Stingrays)
Height: 189cm
Weight: 87kg

O'Hanlon has exceptional hands and is very strong overhead. He represented Vic Country at the national carnival and kicked 31 goals for Dandenong in 17 games. He's a lovely, long left-foot kick and has the ability to push further up the ground. Should be gone before pick 55 in the real draft.

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSfGZkI1LVo
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWdH7fC387k


Pick 93. Nick O’Brien (North Ballarat Rebels)
Height: 188cm
Weight: 91kg

Happy to round out the pickings with the Captain of Vic Country, Nick O'Brien. He is a lead-up forward with a tank big enough to allow him repeated efforts. He took 32 marks in five games for Vic Country, but didn't hit the scoreboard as he would have liked. GWS have got some GIANTS inside forward 50, but O'Brien will bring something a bit different.

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJE5MxkKrd4 (couldn’t find game footage)


Pick 94. Pass

Very pleased with the draft, few left late we felt should have been picked up sooner but were delighted to take with our later picks. We feel the choices we made with our first 11 picks will provide the core to a Premiership in 4-5 years and hope to sustain that success while the players travel through their prime years.

Happy SOS didn't make any blunders with the calling of player names, falafel anyone?

Richmond Tigers

15 - Devon Smith (Geelong Falcons)

26 - Brad McKenzie (Sturt)

55 - Josh Tynan (Gippsland Power)

Devon Smith was actually my third choice for pick 15 as both Docherty and Adams had already been selected. McKenzie was perfect at 26 and Josh Tynan at 55 was an absolute cracker. Had Tynan not been there at 55 it would have been a pass. Overall, very happy with the players the RFC have gained during this years draft.

I would be happy with those picks come 9pm tonight. Smith is a cracker but will surely be gone by 15. I have doubts that Docherty will slip through and get the feeling they may go with Kersten if Docherty isn't there at 15 . . . unless Adams / Sumner slip down also but very unlikely.

I'd pick Markworth at 15 if he was available. His ability to use his pace and breakaway from a contest is a fantastic attribute to have in AFL footy. He can play half forward but eventually move into the midfield and become a real good player. For similar reasons I'd also be hoping that Jordan Murdoch from Glenelg is our pick at 26. Exceptional pace and a decent kick. Would be great on a wing at the MCG. Both players are a good size and wouldnt find it hard to put on the required weight to play early in 2012.

A few named in the various phantom drafts missed out tonight so they will be available in the rookie draft.

Marley Williams ... mid/fwd      181cm    85kg     22/07/1993    Claremont (WA)


"The Cotch" will be disappointed.  :whistle Tipped him to go to us at 26. Also he didn't rate McKenzie and had him going in the 40's where I had him as our 26. Had Nort not jagged him, I'm pretty confident we would have taken him in a flash.

Very pleased that my 3 selections in our phantom draft got picked up especially Josh Tynan. In fact all my pics went earlier than most predicted. Maybe I know more about scouting future talent than I realised. Jack you got a job for me??  ;D

Yep. Good job JVT particularly with the order.  :thumbsup I guess Wingard was the biggest miss but not many would have gotten that one right.

Cats all over the shop. Wins with Crozier & Newman but an absolute non event with the rest.
Good fun though.
