The 2014 U18/Draft Thread

[Pkbaldy]

The TAC Cup Future Stars have announed their Top 20 Phantom Draft.

20. GWS - Corey Ellis
19. Essendon - Clem Smith
18. Sydney - Isaac Heeney
17. Hawthorn - Tom Lamb
16. Port Adelaide - Hugh Goddard
15. North Melbourne - Ed Vickers-Willis
14. Gold Coast - Lachie Weller
13. Geelong - Caleb Marchbank
12. Fremantle - Kyle Langford
11. Richmond - Liam Duggan
10. West Coast - Jarrod Pickett
9. Adelaide - Sam Durdin
8. Collingwood - Darcy Moore
7. Gold Coast - Paul Ahern
6. Carlton - Jayden Laverde
5. Western Bulldogs - Jake Lever
4. Brisbane Lions - Patrick McCartin
3. GWS - Peter Wright
2. Melbourne - Angus Brayshaw
1. St Kilda - Christian Petracca

Surely the Doggies would go for Durdin over Lever if McCartin doesn't slide to 5th pick?
Anyone know why Melbourne are so keen on Brayshaw? Doesn't seem like a top 3 draft pick let alone top 10... But that's just my personal view on what i've seen him do.
And I dont think Langford will go that early... Freo will jump onto a forward with a little bit more beef on him already.

I don't think I've seen a single draft where we haven't taken Pickett haha

[Toga]

Would like to see Richmond take Lachie Weller if he is still there

[Big Mac]

Why does everyone think the Eagles are so keen on Pickett? I get that he is from WA but surely West Coast would prefer a hard contested mid?

[Pkbaldy]

I don't think I've seen a single draft where we haven't taken Pickett haha

Bit different. Thought people would be putting bigger bodied midfielder in as number 1 pick for you guys...

Would like to see Richmond take Lachie Weller if he is still there

Weller or Duggan would probably fit well.

[elephants]

We seriously lack pace. That's probably our main issue. Plus we need a big body like you say. I guess Waterman with our second or third pick as a F/S adds some size!

A lot can change between now and draft day, but I do feel like the Tiges best bets would Laverde, Ahern and Weller. Hurry up November!

It's like an early Christmas for a Saints Supporter. I read more blogs and threads on the draft then I do on the Saints season. I still love them. But I'm doing what the Saints are doing building until 2018. So i'm doing my own little nominations of who the Saints should pick up. I got 2/3 last year. I got Billings and Dunstan,  but I picked Matt Crouch over Acres haha. I just get so excited about the Draft... It's kinda weird haha

[Toga]

Who do you see the Saints taking this year mate? A tall like McCartin or is Petracca just too good to pass up?

[kilbluff1985]

Should take Petracca IMO is really good overhead

Just get games into Spencer White

[Nige]

Yeah, I reckon the Saints almost have to take Petracca, the kid is actually a freak.
