Tipping it's between Dunkley (if he doesn't nominate Sydney) big bodied inside mid, played with our VFL side last year, rated by the Hackson  (:help) & Ah Chee who fills the small forward need....

It's the Tigers, we'll all know who we're taking 2 weeks out from the draft.

Would like Oliver & Ah Chee...should've and probably could've traded for a third pick inside the top 20.

Dunkley has said he doesn't want to go to syd from memory. 

Frankly I think we need a small fwd more than another inside mid and by all accounts Dunkley sounds ok but uninspiring/without x factor.

Dunkley isn't worth pick 12, he'll go early to mid 20's.
I'd be taking talls with all our picks. A key defender with #12 any available ruckman with our 3rd round pick and another developing back with our last.

I think we do need another inside mid who's ready to go like Cripps last year...we got lucky with Miles but we can't just go into next year relying on another GWS fringe player to solve our inside problems again,  I'd prefer Oliver -who btw, was invited to train with us this year - over Dunkley.... I'd prefer Ah Chee over Dunkley too though....

  Looking at our needs i think we are still in a position where we need to take best available at 12. yep we need talls and we need smalls and everything inbetween.  heres a few talls id be looking at.
KPF -  Sam Wiedeman.  i just see him as a power fwd he has had a fair bit of injury but he can take a mark.I want us to draft tall fwds as i still maintain we dont have enough of the right types of tall fwds.
Tall fwd -  Ryan Burton - this kid has been injured with a shocking broken leg.  but before that injury if you was looking for a  Gunston or even Darling type hes your man. He really is the tall fwd type we dont have.
Charlie Curnow - Some compare him to Jake Stringer i suppose i can see why.What a bonus if he actually develops into a big inside mid as well. Widshful thinking here as i reckon he may go top 5.

I fear Hackson has his heart set on Dunkley....Oliver may also have inside running as he trained with....which didn't help Heppll but get Lennon the gig....
