Oakleigh giving Western a bath as expected. Collier-Dawkins with his best half of TAC for the year, still genuine top 20 prospect

Rozee is clearly going to be a special player.
Rozee was very good again today but I reckon Woodcock will be a bolter. Absolutely fantastic today and his last few weeks he has been exceptional.
Some real good SA talent on show today. I must say Lukosius didnāt do a lot but you can see the makings of a good player but not sure he is going to turn into this once in a generation type like many are proclaiming

Itās really interesting how hard it is to pick a top 10 comp player (the comments re Lukosius). The approach of using early second rounders on players with the most upside just shows how hard recruiters must find it.
And then you think about how injury plays such a huge role. Gumby is an obvious example. But Iām more thinking about how Fyfe is a jet, but could very easily have the whole second half of his career ruined. Hird almost didnt come back from the foot.
Anyway, is Woodcock a late selection ala Fanta?
Woodcock could well be inside top 20.
I actually think Rozee will go before Rankine now aswell. Western Bulldogs have shown a stack of interest in him

Players that only get a state combine invite almost never go top 20. Will Powell last year an exception rather than the rule.
Yeah Iām basing it more on the fact that I reckon one of the SA teams could grab him inside 20. Port or the Crows could have 3 picks in the top 20 potentially and if they do I can see Woodcock getting taken.
Also being 174cm you donāt see many players drafted that early who are that tall. You would think someone like Valente or McLennan would be the SA players taken earlier
From what I can make of Valente he has had more interest shown in him by a couple of interstate sides moreso than SA ones. I think he will end up at WC.
With all the SA talent Iām still unsure of which way both clubs will go and if their main targets are gone whether they choose the next best or the next best SA kid
How would you describe Woodcock?
Little bit like a rolling pin. ā¦
