If we pick a player that the club overlooks are we then qualified to slag off at the kid who got picked for the rest of his career?
Of course! That's the main benefit of threads like this!
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

He'll Slip! we've had our eyes on this kid since birth, he's got a boot on him like a double sided scud missile and is more evasive than a rainbow chameleon sliding through Josephs technicolor dream coat! Whoa!!!

Actually if Ben Lennon slips to us, we'll pick him.  Best kick in the draft and was one of the kids training down at punt road like Cotchin did before he was drafted.

Yep this kid gets my vote. Had a cracker of a combine and had huge wraps on him for ages. I think he'll go around 4-8 though. Be very surprised if he slips to us.

Best kick at combine and furthest kick too. Good body size, ready made. Apparently only weakness is inside ball but we have enough of those types. Get another 60m goal kicker and have him and Dusty bombing goals into the stand from outside 50 would be superb.

Lennon is our man. Otherwise Salem I think is a handy pick up.
Go Tigers!

the one ive really liked for a while now is scharenberg but he wont get to pick 5 yet alone pick 11.

the one im warming to most is jonathon marsh have a feeling he wont be there either.
if looking at a mid dom sheed and blake acres are the two i like most.
would really love for us to have two more picks between 20 and 30.

Inside Football's Brett Anderson's Mock Top 10:

1. Boyd
2. Aish
3. Kelly
4. Scharenberg
5. Kolodjashnij
6. Billings
7. Freeman
8. McDonald
9. Lennon
10. Bontempelli

The general consensus is that the top 5 in the #AFLDraft are clear cut, but a young Tasmanian may change all that. Kade Kolodjashnij creating a buzz.

The AFL website has Christian Salem going at pick 11 in their Phantom draft form guide. Cameron McCarthy at 12 if we get shoved down one thanks to Pies gaining a compo pick for Thomas.

Yeah read up on Salem, seems to be exactly the type of player we'd be after. Inside mid, good over-head with precision left foot kicking.

From Inside Football's Brett Anderson's twitter:

@KristianPisano -  I will go on a three month summer holiday if Sheed gets to Richmond.

@BrettAndersonIF - He'll be there mate.

‏@L_MNOH - do you think we'll take him though?

‏@BrettAndersonIF -  I'd say Taylor is ahead of him.
