Where-ever you got that last exert for Naish, they don't realise they are comparing him to somebody who plays a completely different role :P.

Tbh I just googled "Patrick Naish player comparison" and Footyology came up saying it's Zac Williams. I don't know much about Naish, but they say he "Was used as a rebounding half-back in 2017 and often trusted with kick-in duties. Has a penetrating kick and takes plenty of risks with it." Could he be the first ever D/M/F fantasy footballer?

I thought Goddard or Westhoff had a chance in the past, but alas wouldn't be :P.

Naish could be a solid player no doubt, at Tigers could fit in a few positions and if small forwards are too crowded they may try him out down back. Only time will tell :P.

2018 Draft Profiles

NAT Pick 11. Connor Rozee (medium utility)
"A good season really threw the light utility into high-end draft calculations, with Rozee always thereabouts, but shooting up after a good SANFL League finals series with North Adelaide. Some were wondering what had happened after a quiet National Under 18 Championships, but South Australia threw the bigger bodies in the middle, and Rozee played on flanks, using his elite kicking skills to hurt opposition sides. He is another who will need time to fill out, but he has some promising upside if he can fulfil it. A great character as well, Rozee will ensure he gets the best out of himself which is why Gold Coast would be considering him with pick three."

NAT Pick 12. Nick Blakey (key forward/utility)
"He has had comparisons to ‘Buddy’ Franklin, and they are not too far-fetched with Blakey having the size of a key forward, but the smarts and athleticism of a midfielder. He is a huge inclusion to the Swans outfit, and could play early on, but the Swans will be sure to bulk up his wiry frame before subjecting him to monster key defenders. Expect him to play an outside role with some time in the midfield before he can bulk up and eventually take over from ‘Buddy’ inside that forward 50. Not a huge accumulator, but boy does Blakey have some nice tricks, and some high X-factor which will excite Swans fans."

NAT Pick 37. Sam Sturt (general forward)
"A kid who other than those deep in recruiting circles, many would not have heard of three months ago, now slots into the top 20. He is a medium forward who is good overhead, has elite athleticism and just competes for the football in the air or at ground level. He lacks endurance given he missed the cut for the initial Stingrays’ squad, but has not put a foot wrong since after strong performances for Peninsula Grammar in the APS. With game smarts and creativity in spades, Sturt has great upside that clubs would be excited about developing. Still raw, the forward is a player that will take time, but could be easily worth the wait."

NAT Pick 62. Matthew Parker (general forward)
"A mature-ager who stepped up in the absence of Tim Kelly this year, Parker became a nuisance for opposition sides inside 50. The South Fremantle forward booted 27 goals from 20 games, while averaging 13 disposals and three marks per game in 2018. His breakout season has earned him a place on St Kilda’s AFL list, and along with SANFL premiership player, Robert Young, will add serious competition to the Saints’ forward half spots."

PSD Pick 7. Tom Jok (tall utility)
“After spending time with Collingwood’s VFL side Jok has found himself at the Bombers and offers plenty of talent. The 21-year-old has plenty of speed and a big tank which will be handy for Essendon. His strong hands and ability to rotate through different positions will also be important for the club as he provides versatility.”

PSD Pick 25. Tom Fullarton (tall utility)
"Tom Fullarton was recruited as a Category B Rookie from the Brisbane Bullets midway through the 2018 season. Standing 200cm tall, Fullarton is an exciting prospect who can play in a variety of positions and is very agile for his size."

PSD Pick 36. Mark Keane (key position utility)
“Keane, at 194cm, recently returned excellent AFL Draft Combine results off the back of training for much of the last 12 months under the tutelage of fellow Irishman and former Collingwood player, Marty Clarke. Keane attended an international AFL Academy in the USA last January and tested exceptionally well at a similar combine in Europe. At the recent AFL Draft Combine in Melbourne, Keane finished second in the goal kicking test won by Collingwood Next Generation Academy prospect, Isaac Quaynor. “Mark is very strong overhead and has natural game sense. We can see him playing as a key forward or key defender.”
