    This 2026 draft will be a huge one

    The “one year club”…

    The veterans: (likely all 5 will retire at the end of 2026) …

    Stephen May, Jake Melksham, Tom McDonald, Tom Campbell, Shane McAdam

    The fringe: Bailey Laurie (?), Jai Culley (✅), Jack Henderson (x), Aidan Johnson (x)

    The developers: Matt Jefferson (?), Ricky Mentha (✅), Andy Moniz-Wakefield (✅), Luker Kentfield (✅)

    (Not sure if I’ve left anyone out)

    Likely again between say 7 to 10 list changes likely at the end of 2026 as the King refresh kicks in

    It’s fair to say the list will also have some reshaping and be active in the free agency/trade/draft period at the end of 2026

    Based off this years final ladder positions we currently have picks; 5, 13 (GC), 48 (GWS)

    2 names that I like at this early stage are Jack Pickett (key fwd) from the Falcons and Will Malady (3rd tall fwd) from the Power.

    2 first round picks (probably a 3rd when we try and ditch our 2027 one) and a death ride

    Not quite sure how I'll contain myself for another 364 days

    @Pennant St Dee will tell you that Heath Mellody is one to keep both eyes on for next year's draft, now a Mellody/Malady double would be something!

    Have read good things about Mellody but haven't seen any vision myself. Will keep an eye out.
