Take it will a grain of salt but anyway a combined fans mock draft on AFL draft machine has Vlastuin going to us at 9.

1. Lachie Whitfield (Greater Western Sydney)
2. Jimmy Toumpas (Greater Western Sydney)
3. Brodie Grundy (Greater Western Sydney)
4. Oliver Wines (Melbourne)
5. Jake Stringer (Western Bulldogs)
6. Lachie Plowman (Western Bulldogs)
7. Tim Broomhead (Port Adelaide)
8. Jackson Macrae (Brisbane Lions)
9. Nick Vlastuin (Richmond)
reckon the dogs will take mayes at 6 probably target a kpd at 22 maybe tanner smith.someone like nick rodda may be there at 51.
still hoping like mad stringer slips to 9.ive been hoping for 3 yrs that we would get a crack at this kid.
the real key is what gws do.
i can see whitfield grundy and maybe stringer at gws as a needs thing. its very close to best available anyway.
cant for the life of me be seeing them overlook grundy. they need a long term high quality ruckman and in grundy they have everything they could wish for.
stringer well to me he is the best available at pick 1 yet alone after. gws can afford to take the risk with injury having picks 1, 2, 3 to get the best kid in the draft imo. they not only have 1, 2, and 3 but 12 and 14 and someone like mayes or orouke could slip this low.
come what may we should get a real good player at 9. my biggest lament is not having another couple of picks from say 45 to 60.
also it seems to me as general sort of theme wa kids are not being given due respect. i suppose thats a result of most comments on the draft coming from eastern states media.
