PRE 2017 Phantom Draft
- Thread starter bullus_hit
- Start date
- Mar 6, 2004
- 2,503
- 1,835
- 58
Pick 34 - saints choose Cassidy Parish. Brother of Darcy but much more inside. At 189cm will be a big bodied inside mid. We need to work on his kicking but, rectify that, and it's not beyond the realm of possibility that we have chosen the best inside mid in the draft
35. Geelong - Oscar Clavarino. With the retirement of Lonergan and Harry Taylor not getting any younger we’re after a key back and decided on Clavarino marginally ahead of Sam Taylor.

Good pick at this point in the draft.

Hit level 20 in the yo-yo test so has improved his endurance from last year. Reckon he'll get drafted given quick smalls are in vogue now.
37. The West Coast Eagles selects Tim Kelly (23 years old, 183 cm, 83 kg, midfielder/small forward, South Fremantle). Local boy Kelly comes as a ready made player who has worked hard at his game in the past season. Compared to Jimmy Krakouer, he’s a smooth runner and skilful user providing creativity most players don’t have. Can play inside and out & while he was tagged in the WAFL this year he could move forward to alleviate some of the pressure at times.
Adelaide select Zac Bailey 180kg 68kg, at pick 39. Liked him on the Mcg. Fast, tough, and gets the ball. And does a good power rangers stance. chuffed.

Typical lucky Geelong! I was expecting him to be gone (Petrucelle was my next choice) so was delighted.
Pick 40. Brisbane
Hugh Dixon
The Lions missed out on Oscar Allen by a whisker but are very pleased to grab another promising key position forward in Dixon. Personally I thought Hugh was incredibly stiff to miss out on AA selection being edged out by Brander in the final analysis. Dixon ended up having a very consistent campaign kicking 9 goals and showed that he doesn't need tons of ball to make an impact. His form for the Kingsborough Tigers has also been impressive and despite being in a lesser league Dixon's highlight reel is super impressive.
