The AFL has now issued the NAB AFL Pre-Season Draft Order:-

Round One

1 - GWS Giants
2 - Western Bulldogs
3 - Port Adelaide
4 - Brisbane Lions
5 - Richmond
6 - Essendon
7 - Carlton
8 - Fremantle
9 - Collingwood
10 - Adelaide Crows
11 - Sydney Swans

Round Two

12 - GWS Giants
13 - Carlton
14 - Fremantle
15 - Collingwood
16 - Sydney Swans

Round Three

17 - Sydney Swans

Melbourne is not included as it has a full Primary List. The Rookie draft will follow in reverse finishing order on the 2012 ladder. Our first pick in that draft is #3. We also have a second pick which will be in the late teens.

"Rookie draft" corrected instead of "PSD"

[Chippy]

I presume you mean the Rookie draft will follow

[La Dee-vina Comedia]

It would be amusing if Adelaide jumped in before Sydney and used pick 10 on Kurt Tippett.

Corrected.

Thanks.

Juzzo on bigfooty has produced a Phantom PSD and Rookie Draft which is reproduced below.

Apparently, a number of clubs are likely to pass up on their PSD selections for list management reasons and Juzzo appears to have taken this into account which is why I've chosen his phantom draft over some of the others.

It's also reasonably consistent with this article that appeared recently on the AFL site - http://m.afl.com.au/...edium=RSS]Clubs shy away from draft crop[/url]

[Whispering_Jack]

Category B apparently relates to that exotic group of zone and international selections which Melbourne rarely ever gets involved in these days.

I find it interesting that we have had only one player was invited to train but have two vacancies to fill at the rookie draft. I suppose we'll find out soon enough who the other player will be.

[Josh]

Rokie draft, pick 40 GC Suns - Aliir Aliir, what a great story!

Best of luck.

Agreed.  I would love to see Aliir Aliir at the Dees.  Great story and the potential to be an x factor player. Cool name too.

 

I could see this being a great way to promote the code in Kenya as it would create quite a lot of media there I would imagine.

Juzzo from Bigfooty has Melbourne selecting Ben Duscher with pick 18 in the rookie draft.  He could be a handy pickup - captain of the Bendigo Bombers and highly regarded amongst many Bomber supporters.

D.O.B:   29-09-1987 Height:   186 cm Weight:   83 kg Club  

Bendigo Football Club

Originally from Mildura and then with the Bendigo Pioneers, Ben spent time under our current assistant coach Daniel Schmidt at Rochester where they shared a GVFL Premiership. Ben returned to Bendigo in 2010. He was rewarded for his strong showing with the Co-Captaincy in 2011 and lead 'from the front' which is his way. A strong midfielder who can be relied upon to go forward and find the goals. Appointed Co-Captain again in 2012. Winner of the 2011 Nick Carter Medal & Runner-up in 2012.

 

[the master]

I would be none too impressed if we took another VFL inside midfielder. We've already got Magner, Couch and M Jones, if we go for another one they'll be 4th in line for only one spot in the team unless they are versatile.

I'm still keen on outside types and particularly a small forward.

[ThreeOneSix]

its a real shame we didn't have a PSD pick.

Id take Leigh Osbourne in a heart beat.

[Deeoldfart]

I'm hoping that's the way the PSD pans out, leaving Jack Hannath to us if he's at the top of our list.

I thought Neeld said he would take a young project player in the rookie draft, so picking another 25 year old would suprise me.  

[Sydney Pennski]

Football Nation on Ben Duscher, Pre-season draft target: Ben Duscher suggests he's missed out on a gig with the Bulldogs and holds out little hope of being drafted. Not sure if he's what we need.

[rjay]

Haynes for me, big upside.

One spot for an inside mid?? You must be kidding, Tell that to Swan, Beams, Ball etc...

[You're Gawn]

i'd like to see us get andrew boston and emmanuel irra

[Bitter but optimistic]

 What would Jack Dyer have done with that name?

[tatu]

Anthony Tipungwuti and Matthew Haynes are two I'd hope we would target ...

[Goodvibes]

I'd be really suprised if Melbourne picked him up but I can confirm that we've talked to him and shown a bit of interest.

[Swampfox]

3 - Melbourne Jack Hannath ......sounds right

 

18 - Melbourne Ben Duscher.......Hmmm

 

Oh his second name is Jack ?
