Essendon and Melbourne have done an awesome job.

Mat, Foster is a KPP, no clue why we'd take him over McKenzie but he is a KPF at least.

Jayden Foster (Calder)
Son of: Peter
Height: 194cms
Weight: 91kgs
Position: Key Forward
2014 Games: 3
Average Stats: 7 disposals, 2 goals, 4.3 marks, 1.6 tackles, 5 hitouts.
Draft Eligible: 2014

Jayden Foster was overlooked in last years draft and not due to talent, but because of a horror run of injuries that ultimately kept him off the park. The talented key forward prospect is benefiting from another season in the system that. CBF finding the link again. Damn copy and paste haha.

and Clem smith

Yeah, Foster could have been a F/S for the Dogs.

Really happy with Menadue, Drummond and Butler, and then to a lesser extent Ellis and McKenzie.

Wow okay, so who missed out? That was a whirlwind.
Bampton.  :(
I was looking back through the list to see if I missed him being picked. Shoulder reco must have put clubs off but I'd be fairly sure he'll get a rookie list spot somewhere.

Clem Smith looks like the fat version of Byron Pickett

He's most asked question " Why are you so chubby" hahaha

Langford and Leverde to the dons. Both went lower than I thought. Not complaining
Steals man Dons have done awesome.

So pissed we didn't take Laverde...
I love Essendom so much right now, man-crush on Laverde :-*. Langford not bad himself, a bit on the skinny side for a tall forward, but has some skills and we could use some tall forward fire-power behind Daniher and like Carlisle/Hurley. Bombers got an absolute steal in Laverde.

Happy Caleb Daniel got picked up!
Same, deserves to get picked up! At the doggies lets see if he can get into the midfield or at least half forward flank. Will certainly be keeping an eye on his development!

Mr.Craig

Interesting draft night that's for sure!

Lever and Wigg  ;D ;D ;D

What's McGovern and Dear like?
McGovern has a bucketload of potential. Just needs guidance and to be in the systems. Was hoping Freo would grab him. Reckon he has more talent than his brother

Josh Glenn missed out.
Yep, no dice for Panos as well.

There's another name but I'm blanking.

Edit: Nic Newman. That's the one.

Maybe him and a bunch of state leagues guys like Adam Saad will get some rookie spots.

Very happy with Freo's work. Our current kids are coming along nicely and will fill our backline worries. Then we bring in a classy mid in Weller and Mundy 2.0 to play alongside Mundy

Both the teams over in the west did very well.
