Wouldn't it be fascinating to see every club's draft list after the event, especially to review a few years down the track after the players have been in the system a while.  Just a debate topic, nothing more, nothing less, but it would give an interesting insight into how differently some clubs think about different players (and types of players).

Was that the before or after draft list for each club? The Hawks one looks realistic while the Crows just so happen to have their selection Dangerfield (pick 10?) third on their list and no Palmer or Masten in the top 10  ???.

Can't wait to see Rance go at it.

18 years old 88 kilos 192cm hard running backman.

Our backline looks set for a fair few years, just need a small to mid shutdown defender.

We also need a ruckman Chuck to state the obvious.

Our backline is settling in very nicely. :thumbsup

This time last year we probably thought our backline was our major concern but now with Moore, Thursty, McGuane and with Rance in the wings it's looking healthy. Probably a small defender to contain a Milne  :banghead would be something to add. Hopefully someone jumps up out of the blue next year up forward and in the ruck where our major weaknesses now are.
