I'll have a blind shot at it.

ROUND ONE

1. Greater Western Sydney - Whitfield

2. Greater Western Sydney - Toumpas

3. Greater Western Sydney - Plowman

4. Melbourne (GWS compensation - Tom Scully) - Wines

5. Western Bulldogs - O’Rourke

6. Western Bulldogs (GWS compensation - Callan Ward) - Kristian Jaksch

7. Port Adelaide - Brodie Grundy

8. Brisbane Lions - Jake Stringer

9. Richmond - Jackson Macrae

10. Essendon (father-son selection committed to Joe Daniher)

I want to pose another question, what would the top 10 look like if the draft wasn't compromised, i.e no 17 year old selections last year and no father son.

So the actual ten best undrafted 18 year olds in order, as opposed to factoring in club selections.

Would it be something like:

1. Whitfield

2. Daniher

3. O'Meara

4. Toumpas

5. Crouch

6. Grundy

7. O'Rourke

8. Viney

9. Wines

10. Plowman

1. Whitfield

3. Plowman

4. Toumpas ( part of the hogan deal)

7. Mayes

8. Menzel

9. Macrae

10. Daniher


This is my tip for the top 10 in the 2012 AFL National Draft. I think that GWS have more than enough midfielders and they will take Grundy to help their ruck stocks and Plowman to help their embattled defence. Leaving the Demons to swoop on Toumpas.

1) Whitfield (GWS Giants)

2) Grundy (GWS Giants)

3) Plowman (GWS Giants)

4) Toumpas (Melbourne Demons)

5) O'Rourke (Western Bulldogs)

6) Stringer (Western Bulldogs)

7) Wines (Port Adelaide Power)

8) Macrae (Brisbane Lions)

9) Menzel (Richmond Tigers)

10) Daniher (Essendon Bombers)

Either way, I'll be happy with the Demons getting either Toumpas, Wines or O'Rourke with our number 4 pick.

Is Toumpas an inside-outside dynamic midfielder?

Because that is what we need. Outside of that I want the hardest inside mid out there.

We need some explosiveness in our midfield - but through a bloke who can win his own footy.

If we dont take Wines it would surely be one of the biggest draft surprises since Freo took Hill over Rich in 08. Nearly every news source claims we are into him in a big way so unlikely they are all wrong.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

    It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
