[one-eyed]

wayne is first cab off the rank with Melbourne's picks 1 and 2 .

[wayne]

These two have been locked in for a while, we could do with a quality tall, but these midfielders are too good to pass up. We'll hope that a good tall is available at #11 and possibly #18

#1 - Jack Trengove

#2 - Tom Scully

[Ramps]

#3 - Dustin Martin

Highly skilled ready made midfielder at about 187cm and 86kgs approximately. Draft camp showed unexpected speed which adds to the package. Martin becomes Hardwicks 1st national draft selection to start the next Richmond rebuild. A 10 year 200 game player. Very happy to have him at Punt Road.

[tiga]

Fremantle with selection number 4 would like to select

Anthony Morabito from Peel Thunder

it was a toss up between Morabito and Cunnington but having a home grown player will potentially remove some relocation issues.
We hope he will live up to expectations.

[crannyvegas]

North Melbourne will use their first selection on, Ben Cunnington.

Height: 185cm
Weight: 84kg
Position: Midfield/Utility (any non key position)
Preferred foot: Right foot/Dual sided
Potential: 8-8.5/10
Style-like: Joel Selwood/Jimmy Bartel

Ben oozes Shinboner spirit, and complements the new coaches desire to add a hard edge to the North Melbourne outfit. A selfless team player who is more than happy to go in and get the ball for his team mates. Slight knock on his speed but easily complemented by surrounding him with line breakers.
Other Considerations: I really considered John Butcher here as North lack a genuine forward target. I think however that Brad Scott will be looking set a trend here and in his first year might avoid any risks. Robbie Tarrent should be fit this season and a reasonable forward should be available at the next pick.

[Smokey]

Swans take Gary Rohan.

Midfielder or small forward with good kicking skills, excellent mark and strong defensive pressure.  Ticks all boxes for this club's requirements.

[elliot]

Sorry I'm late

Pick #7 - John Butcher

Happy to grab Butcher here who is the best key forward in the draft despite having a inconsistent year. Even with injury and a interrupted pre season Butcher commanded extra attention up forward due to being such a great contested mark. Very quick and agile for his hieght and 30 goals from 10 games in a "Bad" year by Butcher's standards make him a tantalizing prospect given the scope of improvement he has.
An unusual kicking style has critics going mad but like Buddy and Riewoldt he'll give himself plenty of opportunity in front of goal so I have no regret picking him up here.

With the Eagles having two 2nd round picks heavily influenced me taking a KPF as the midfield depth I quite strong in this draft. I was also considering Melksham with this pick as I'm a big fan.

[Danog]

Port selects:

Pick 8:

Jake Carlisle

Pick 9:

Kane Lucas

Enough has already been said about both of them.  I don't rate Tapscott high enough to take him with a top 10 pick, even though he doesn't have the "go home" factor.

[elliot]

Do you rate Carlise ahead of Talia Danog? can I ask why?

[Danog]

Carlisle can play both ends.  Talia is more of a pure CHB, which Port already has in Alipate Carlile.

[WilliamPowell]

Essendon

Pick 10: Aaron Black

With the retirement of Matty Lloyd, Essendon are looking for another long term key forward prospect. The Club views Hurley as our long term CHB and believe that Black can develop into either a FF or CHF for the next 10 years'

[wayne]

#11 - Daniel Talia

Very happy to get Talia at #11.

[one-eyed]

Just to recap so far .....

1. Melbourne - Jack Trengove
2. Melbourne - Tom Scully
3. Richmond - Dustin Martin
4. Fremantle - Anthony Morabito
5. North Melb - Ben Cunnington
6. Sydney      - Gary Rohan
7. West Coast - John Butcher
8. Port Adelaide - Jake Carlisle
9. Port Adelaide - Kane Lucas
10. Essendon - Aaron Black
11. Melbourne - Daniel Talia


Next up sabartooth: 12. Carlton

[WilliamPowell]

sabartooth where are you?

You know if this was the real deal

Dopey little Adrian Anderson would have called time and Carton would have lost their pick.... that's sounds like a winner to me
