2022 Draft Watch (Part 2)

Not sure if this has already been posted…

Who’s in the mix after that: Alwyn Davey Jnr, Noah Long, Coby Burgiel, Bailey Macdonald, Anthony Munkara, Rhett Montgomerie, Jayden Davey

Ideally, the Bombers take another player at 25 before a bid comes for the talented Davey Jnr, with the class and speed of Burgiel in the mix, while ready-made WA prospect Hewett would be considered if he slides. As skilful as just about anyone in the pool, some believe there is little chance NGA prospect Munkara gets to pick 40, where the Bombers get access to him. Others believe he could get through to the rookie draft. Essendon has shown some interest in SA ball-magnet Adam D’Aloia, while mature-age Central District defender Rhett Montgomerie has also caught the club’s attention. Look for Essendon to be involved in a live trade, in order to get the most out of its second pick before it gets swallowed up by the Davey Jnr bid with the Dees and Bulldogs making a big play.
