not feeling good about missing on petracca - a lesser blow that he goes to the demons where he will suffer and we'll never know what we missed.

Re: Not long now! Pick #1 St.Kilda.........
Well Paige had us taking him in her earlier phantom draft selection,
Pick 38: St Kilda – Jack Lonie
Position: Forward
Height: 174 cm, Weight: 67 kg, DOB: 13/08/1996
Club: Dandenong Stingrays
Projected draft range: 30-rookie
Player comparison: Hayden Ballantyne
A lively small forward, Jack Lonie has terrific pace and a stack of x-factor to go along with his ability to bob up with a goal or two in each game that he plays. Lonie was a standout bottom-age player for the Stingrays last year, but has gone to a new level in 2014 with stints through the midfield to aid his development. However, at the Championships, he was played solely as a small forward, who demonstrated an uncanny ability to just make things happen. Along with Lonie’s ingenuity around goal and his ability to set up others, his defensive pressure rates among the best for small forwards. He chases, corrals, attacks and dives at the ball whilst always sticking a strong tackle. He’s often found wanting in terms of his marking, but the basis of his trade is crumbing at packs and his defensive pressure inside 50. He’s got some tricks, and although a lack of composure can sometimes evade him, he has enough to work with to make a fist of an AFL career.
Player Update: Bagged five goals in the semi-final win over Geelong and really was the difference, standing up in the cut-throat final. Also named in the forward pocket of the TAC Cup team of the year.
