Arguably the most exciting player in this year's draft pool and definitely one the most unique and versatile - Jayden Laverde

I rate this bloke very very VERY highly...

Not alone there. I wish he'd land up at the Tiges, but he's going top 5.

Has the potential to be a Stevie J, so many weapons, hopefully GWS select him and we make some overtures in year 2.

One of the best second round prospects - Alex Neal-Bullen

how high will Laverde go?

Pick 4 or 5.

I like him a lot, just looks like a footballer to me.

If the Giants don't take him with 4, Collingwood will with 5.

Played against this bloke a few times over the years, and he is one of, if not the very best midfielder I've ever come up against. He's just a freak. Runs all day, has great skills, OK speed but he knows how to tear a game apart, and is just a class above.

An elite talent. Would love him at the Crows but I highly doubt he'll slip to Pick 35. He's good enough for the first round but he's not as highly rated in Victoria so he probably won't go there

Saints 22. Been calling it for the past few months. Unless someone really good slides all the way to our picks.

Mr.Craig

I do hope someone gives Josh Glenn a crack.

And worth it. Reece McKenzie at 21, Neal-Bullen at 22 and Petracca at 1 would be another very good draft for the Saints. Having said that, Tom Lamb is another which may come into consideration if he's still available.

If Saints want incredible potential and are prepared for inconsistency - go Lamb.
If Saints want a reliable, solid, hard-worker, and someone they know what they're gonna get - go Neal-Bullen.

Surely gets drafted, along with Boekhorst & Saad, these are the state leaguers who look the goods.

I'd be keen to see Matt Panos and Adam Cockie get second chances.
