2026 AFL National Draft prospects: The next batch

first of these for the season

Prasad so highly ranked and no mention of us

There has been some contention around Prasad's NGA status - my understanding is that he's no longer tied to the Dees and is a part of the open pool.

Interesting mix,

13. Clancy Snell Gippsland Power/Vic Country DEF, 196cm - Solves one problem, good name too, he's no Marlon Neocleous but still a good name.

If we wanted to be real tricky we could go for Jack Pickett and Xavier Ladbrook.

Seems Prasad has drifted away from us which is a shame.

I wonder how interested we would actually be in Prasad given our investment in L Pickett and Matthews last year.

Regardless, with the obvious caveat that it's a long way out from the draft and the u18s season has just started, if we are interested it sounds like we'll probably have the opportunity to just pick him regardless given he isn't in top 10 discussions.

 

No doubt JT will be trying to trade up in the draft with our 2 first rounders. With a bit of luck Suns will not do as well as expected.

An elite mid would be a great get.

I've got Snell even higher in my first top 50 dropping Sunday - think genuinely the best key defender in the crop. Aggressive and brave in the air. Good awareness of when to spoil or intercept mark. I think he's very good.

Jack Pickett I reckon slides a bit. ACL injury means he won't play again this year, and he was a bit one trick (lead, mark, goal) as a bottom ager. Clubs were hoping to see him up the ground more this year with greater accumulation and impact.

Genuinely shocked Wil Malady doesn’t feature in the top 20. I’m sure his time will come.

Thoughts on Jackson Phillips?

Really like him. Wasn't on my radar heading into the year but certainly is now. He'll feature in my top 20 for my first ranking. I love his power and contested ability at stoppage. But I equally love the fact that when he rests forward, he's got genuine craft - both as a smart leading forward and as a crumbing creative type.

Really nice player that's a first round option I think.

TW7. Really hoping to the see midfield guns Jackson Phillips and Ethan Drever at the National championships. Both super impressive.

I agree - very interested to see how high they can rise. Can see a world where they both end up in the top 15.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
