Last 4 National drafts

The plan was to hit the draft for 4 years

2021 - next year turning 22
Nasiah Wanganeen Milera - Elite (3)
Michito Owens - Bull hybrid forward
Marcus Windhager - Tagger
2022 - Turning 21
Mattaes Phillipou - Gun (4)
James Van Es - Delisted
Ollie Hotton - Delisted
Isaac Keeler - project fwd/ruck
2023 -Turning 20 (5)
Darcy Wilson - Jet
Lance Collard - talented but raw
Angus Hastie - Speed
Hugo Garcia - Surprise bargain
Arie Schoenmaker - Slider
2024 - Turning 19 (6)
Tobie Travaglia - Classy and courageous
Alix Tauru - Freak
James Barrett - competitor
Hugh Boxshall - Tough and aggressive mid
Alex Dodson - Mobile Ruck
Patrick Said - Neat and smart small forward

Add to that
Max Heath - Raw and tough
Anthony Caminiti - powerful
Angus McLennan - good overhead for his size
Max Hall - Clever mid/HF
Liam O’Connell - athletic HB


That’s 21 under 23 - there will be a few more busts but we have now invested HEAVILY in the draft!!!

B: McLennan - Barratt - Schoenmaker
HB: NWM - Tauru - Hastie
C: Wilson - Phillipou - Travaglia
HF: Owens - Caminiti - Garcia
F: Collard - Keeler - Said
Foll: Dodson - Boxshall - Windhager
Int: Heath - Hall - O’Connell

I think the young blokes just have to show a willingness to work hard and hit small achievements along the way.

Caminiti and Windy need a consistent run at senior level and need to show they can impact in 1 out of every 3 games imo.

A real focus on high endurance in the past two drafts. I'm not fussed about picking up the mids later in the draft, rather than earlier. There have been many gun midfielders selected after pick 30 over the years and I think we'll see a good example in 2025 with Hugo Garcia

We have finally selected a ruckman of genuine quality. It's been a long rume
