Have a feeling Moneyblair's going to pick up Moore as a DFA to cover the inside mid need and so we can take Ah Chee at 12.

Harrison Mckay? What do we think and what do we know?

RICHMOND
Pick 12: Generally pick 12 is a nice spot to sit and wait on draft night, because the top group generally extends beyond a dozen. There's maybe a bit more uncertainty this year about the players who will be there for the Tigers, but there will be talent available. Richmond could boost its tall forward/ruck stocks by taking Harry McKay, an athletic tall who moves well for a 200cm player and kicks goals.

Only if he has the ability to play 1st ruck for me.

We already have Griffiths and Vickery, both 200cm players who 'move well and kick goals'.

Need a ruck beast.

Otherwise I'm happy for us to grab Collins as a KPD or if Weideman slips through to us (unlikely) I would consider him as a KPF.

Don't forget McBean.
We are flush with these types atm - albeit unproven.
What we need is an electric small forward with X factor to his game.
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Agreed.

Seems like the draft doesn't have a lot around our pick in terms of immediate need (small fwd, inside mid).

Ah Chee could be the best fit (skillfull, silky etc) but probably won't be ready for another 12 months from what I've read (endurance, defensive efforts need alot of work)

The AFL website will have a series on four of the draftees that should be available around our first pick:

Darcy Tucker, Callum Ah Chee, Ryan Burton and Harley Balic will feature in this year's Going Places, which has tracked the prospects from the start of the year on their path to the 2015 NAB AFL Draft.

Add Mc Bean to those two.
The tall player i am warming to is Ryan Burton.

keep 'em coming...

Ah Chee, Lennon, McBean, Vlastuin, C Ellis, yarren ...

i am happy with unproven if they are highly skilled - 'xfactor' nice bonus

better than the fat plodder option
