The taller one looks so much like Kamdyn McIntosh from Richmond :o

Hahahaha yessss.

Yep, I see that too

[Bully]

yeah doubt he will make it past pick 22 Saints will take him if still there

If Tom Lamb or Jarrod Garlett are there at 22 we will most likely pick either one of them.
I don't mind Blakely, I just think them 2 are going to be better.

Dunno, I think Blakely is one of the best chances in this draft of really going on to have a great career.

yeah well you have 21 and 22 right? so reckon you will go for him with one and i think Essendon might with 17 or 19 anyway

We will try for McKenzie first, or next best tall. And then an outside midfielder.

p.s
Look at them ears! Aerodynamic?

why wouldn't you want Blakely? http://www.afl.com.au/news/2014-11-06/meet-connor-blakely

The big knock on Blakely is kicking depth, he struggles to kick over 40 metres, this is where the comparisons with Mundy are a little off.

His kicking has improved dramatically over the past 12months as he worked to improve there and it isn't as much of an issue anymore

Does anyone know what time the draft is? Was 7pm Eastern last year, hope it is again because I'm out in the arvo for a bit.

[Mr.Craig]

Never mind, found it (not on AFL.com of course, why would they tell you? ::))

6:00pm-7:30pm.

It's worth reading the article, interacting with the thing down the bottom to understand the order.

Even then, I don't fully agree with it.
