B20's Top 11

[B20 0]

This is not a phantom draft but more of a subjective list of players I liked most based on the videos at the AFL site and on youtube. I wanted to do a longer and more comprehensive list but this is all I had time for. Will be interesting to look back on in a few years from now.

1. Tom Scully – Nuggety and determined, looks like a midfield workhorse. The type of player who will become the heart & soul of a midfield. The logical #1 choice.

2. Callum Bartlett – Fast, skillful, strong and evasive. Doesn’t look to have a weakness in his game. The only reason I haven’t got him at number 1 is the doubts over his fitness.

3. Jack Trengove – Well balanced, prototype midfielder who looks strong in most areas. The most assured pick of the draft.

4. Daniel Talia - Awkward kicking action and looks more of a defender than a forward but is tough as nails and strong overhead and just looks a solid player.

5. Kane Lucas – Skillful and pacy with good awareness.

6. Liam Patrick - Saw footage of him for the first time last night and he looks impressive. Skillful with great agility and determination. I tip he will make it and would love for him to do it at Melbourne.

7. Levi Casboult – Looks like the best tall forward in the draft to me. Exceptionally strong overhead and reliable in front of goal with great strength and action.

8. Mitchell Carter – Looks like a smart player with good skills and decision making. Surprised I haven’t heard a lot about him.

9. Taylor Duryea – Looks quick & smart with a lovely kicking action. Surprised I haven’t heard much about him either.

10. Myles Pitt – Great overhead and on the lead and looks a natural forward.

11. Jack Fitzpatrick – Only saw his video for the first time today and he looks extremely agile, & skillful for a player of his size & reads the game well. I like him more than Vardy & Gawn.

Other players I liked were Ben Cunnington, Luke Tapscott, Jasper McMillan-Pittard, Alexander Stopp & Aaron Black.
