My preference is streaks ahead of the rest of them. The best big man in the draft is AARON BLACK for me!

Picked Vardy, due to the fact that I feel we need a solid ruck more than we need a KPF. While this goes against my idea of selecting the best available, Vardy will be in amongst the big list that could be classed as the best available at that pick.

Couldn't go past Butcher.

As rough as he is, its his interview that impressed me the most. I think that inconsistency will be a thing f the past in three years time, making him by far the best of the talls

Is this based on the highlights on youtube?

Or have you seen him play?

Butcher is the best KPP in the draft, you would pick him but he won't last to 11, if he does the club will be throwing high fives around the table when they call his name.

If he's still there, the club would take Butcher in a heart beat! I've seen him up close a few times this year, and am more than impressed with what he can do. If available, he would be a huge asset for the club.

Black would be my second pick, as I still think that we need another tall down forward to develop along side Watts and Jurrah to provide that potent forward combo that I have been waiting so long for!

Bring on the draft!

Has anybody seen Levi Casboult play?

The videos on draft machine show him taking contested mark after contested mark - and kicking the ball along way. I note that he's not in Shifta's top 30. He's a big boy - and he appears relatively agile for his size.Has he got an attitude problem - or does the draft machine just flatter him? I'm not necessarily suggesting him for #11 - but perhaps a later pick?

I havnt seen him play live. So thats no!

I have seen his highlights on you tube and draft tracker. But I have also read alot about him and he is quite impress

My decision is based on both of what I have seen and read. He has so many more attributes than Butcher its not funny!

Consistency is a huge issue for me! Black has that. Butcher doesnt! Butcher seems to be a lazy type of footballer from what I have read and seen. And is more one dimensional type of player where Black is very versatile and atheltic and he knows where to run on the footy field.

BLACK hands down for me!

I hope Port or Essendon take the Butch!

For someone like me who doesn't have a good grasp of the candidates apart from online "enlightenment" I went for Butcher as a safe option although Black would be my 2nd. One thing I am sure of is that if we get Black then our two big forwards will be collectively known as "Black Jack".

IMO There are some outstanding prospects within the top dozen picks in this years draft but NONE of them are TALLS

Very keen on Tapscott and predict he will be the smokey in this years draft

Pick 11 i hope he is a DEMON

Butcher will go to Sydney if they don't take Rohan or Port with pick 8 or 9,i'd love to get him but he won't slide to 11.

With our million mids,we'll take best key.

I hope that was a joke. We have the worst midfield in the comp and have just lost McLean.

I think it was meant as in - we will have just picked up Scully and Trengove, we have Grimes and Morton developing, and Sylvia, Moloney, Davey and Jones in there at the moment. Then add in prospects Strauss and Blease, and the fact that we will probably pick up another mid with either 11 or 18, and you can see that at some stage, we need to look at key-position players.

Im not sure about Tappy at 11. He is very similar to Maric who we already have coming through.

Stevens, Lucas or Melksham if available and go for a mid.

Im sure we will go tall though...

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
