Now that we have pick 6, I'm now quite keen on some of our options, even if it will probably drop to pick 8.
Some pundits have Drever in that range. If so, I think he'd be a very good pick up. A big bodied mid with pace and skill, who can win plenty of ball. Though I suspect that he'll probably be gone by our pick. Much the same with Mellody. Classy midfielder, but will almost certainly be taken by West Coast.
There's a chance that Van Hattum will be available at our pick. Which is an interesting one. Looked an excellent ruck prospect to me, when I saw him play, but do we really need another developing ruck?
I'd probably place a bid on Matthews from GWS, but I might be a touch disappointed if the Giants didn't match. Murray from the Lions might be also worth a bid. We probably need some more run off half back and he did that well for the Allies. Although, if we add McGroder and/or Medved, then that need is lessened.
Then there's the two KPDs, Harris and Snell. Both look quality prospects, and with Melican, Hamling and McCartin all aging, and Rampe still considering his future, we might need some more depth there.
And at the other end of the field is Gayfer. Most pundits currently have him mid-teens, but after his combine performance, he should be a riser. His marking and attack on the ball is impressive. And with him breaking the vertical leap record, you'd assume that he can do a bit of relief ruck work. So, I'd be happy with him, although his expressed desire to play for Collingwood, could be a problem?
