To early?? ;D

A bit early, let's just see how this batch goes first. More of a midfielders draft, no talls making early claims just yet.

Dylan Williams looked all class for the Chargers in the TAC cup GF.

Hopefully he goes into the midfield next year.

Watching some training sessions down at the Falcons and the Dahlhaus boy looks the goods. Low center of gravity keeps his feet in the contest, the ball seemed to follow him around the ground.

Interested in a kid from Western named Liam O'Brien. Know his old man - hope he goes well.

My brother-in-law is playing for the Jets as well. I'm going to be interested to see if anyone goes to his game some unbiased reports. He was BOG last week against NT.

He's a late arrival to footy, as he played Rugby at U14 level, before swapping to AFL at u16.

Just starting to scope out the crop this year and it looks quick. Lot of pace.

Lot of big midfielders, first 25 looks strong now. But to his credit, Bully called it, not a stack of key position players jumping up yet. They may tho. First name I’m big on Lachlan Ash, dashing back flanker.

Also the Giants have a kid in their academy that could go one, Tom Green. Patrick Cripps type that is ready to go. Plus Essendon’s first pick and their own. The reboot won’t take long.

I saw the Cannons vs Jets game 2 weeks ago, and Fletcher's son looked pretty handy. Of course, he'll end up at Essendrugs, but he was marking everything so may be another KPP to watch.

Weren't they pumping up Fletch's son before last years draft? Did he cancel on nominating for the draft, perhaps underage or bail out with injury niggles?

Calder definitely are putting him in a position to look good, plays a lot as a spare man in defence during general play. Only really matches up for the 666 and then sits in the whole. Jason Cloke-esque

To be able to do that role well, you have to be able to read the play and he certainly can do that

Ok draft watchers, I want some left foot midfielders who are inside/outside, evasive, accumulators, damaging kicks, quick and with elite endurance. What have you got for me to keep an eye on? :hihi

His old man nigh on spent the second half of his career playing as a loose man in defence.

Had Michael, Danny Jacobs, Dean Wallis, Wellman, and near the end Carlisle,, Pears, Hooker and Hurley to do the heavy lifting for him.
