Who will your club target later in the draft?Callum Twomey

22 November 2015Beyond the first 30 selections, a number of players have been linked to clubs with their later choices. AFL.com.au has found some of the possible options available for each club's picks deeper in the draft.
We have listed every draft pick assigned to clubs by the AFL, but also predicted how many each club is expected to use on the night.
The AFL's draft order is based purely on the list spots open to each club. Many clubs, including the Brisbane Lions, Sydney Swans and GWS, have extra picks that will open up if they are required to use more than one selection to match a bid under the new draft night system.
Unlike the Phantom Draft top 30 (where we have changed the draft order reflective to where bids may fall on academy prospects), for the below selections we have kept the order as it will start according to the AFL's official draft order.
RICHMONDDraft picks: 12, 51, 78, 84 (likely to use two or three selections)
If
Ben Crocker is still on the board at pick 52, the Tigers might take a strong look at him. The powerful and competitive forward has his fans earlier in the draft but it wouldn't shock if he was still available in the 40-50 range.
Richmond has been linked to
Corey Wagner, a zippy midfielder from Queensland, but will need to bid on him as he is part of the Lions academy set-up. The Tigers will have a fair wait between their first and second choices so will be nervous as they see who is left.
