Darcy Wilson would be closer to pick 10 than pick 20, very little chance he's on the board.
I will never ever stop banging on about the unbelievable unfair afl recruiting rules,which I moaned about way before 2010 ,swans,Brisbane, gws ,gcs,academy rebuilding player machines and extra picks thrown at gcs.
Now before someone whings,tigers got help,we got pick 19 as a priority ,but tigers were the only side ever to finish last and not get PICK 1,WE GOT PICK 2.
WE ALSO FINISHED 3RD LAST AND GOT PICK 6.
WE ALSO FINISHED 6TH LAST AND GOT PICK 15.
DESPITE THIS WE BUILT A DYNASTY IN THE HARDEST EVER REBUILDING YEARS.
FROM 1983 UNTILL 2012 ,THATS 30 SEASONS WE MADE FINALS TWICE, AND GOT SFA HELP,WE MUST PUSH FOR A EVEN FAIR DRAFT,IT CAN BE DONE AND IT STARTS FROM US FANS,MEMBERS .

And don't forget 2002 when we traded out our Pick #4 for Kane Johnson, BEFORE the AFL took 2 picks away from Carlton above us in the draft, thus handing the Crows our Pick#2 (who pissed it up against the wall by trading it for a cooked Wayne Carey).
That mess should've and could've easily been cleared up before the trade period, prior to it compromising the trading of picks that were done a month before the trade period.
To further undermine the process that year, Carlton had already traded out their 2nd rounder for Barnaby French before the AFL could take it off them
Yes I was livid at the time ,afl.takes us for granted.And don't forget 2002 when we traded out our Pick #4 for Kane Johnson, BEFORE the AFL took 2 picks away from Carlton above us in the draft, thus handing the Crows our Pick#2 (who pissed it up against the wall by trading it for a cooked Wayne Carey).

So where will our first pick actually land? It currently sits at 29. Let's have a look.
Using Twomey's latest (September) phantom, let's say Walter is bid on at 2 (2517 - 20% = 2013 points): GC will need to use picks 24, 27 and 28 (2165) to match, getting back pick 60 and bringing in their 30s pick by 2 each.
Then Read gets bid on at 9 (1469 - 20% = 1175): GC use 30, 34, 36 = 1673, getting back pick 37. Their pick 60 comes in to 59.
Rogers at 12 (1268 - 20% = 1014): GC only have picks 37, 59, 60, 64 and 71 with any points value = 816. So they would have to go into deficit next year and would have no points left to match a bid on Will Graham. So that's a plus.
At this point our pick 29 is still pick 29.
But wait, going by Cal's phantom, Croft gets bid on at 11 (1329 - 20% = 1063). Dogs match with what is now 38, 45, 50 = 1085, getting back pick 72.
And our pick 29 is now 30.
But wait. McCabe attracts a bid at 18 (985 - 20% = 788). Hawks match with 34, 45, = 889, getting back pick 64.
Pick 29 is now 31. According to Twomey, Edwards, Stevens, Reid, Collard, Moir, DeMattia, Tholstrup are all gone. Graham, Freijah, Simpson, Morris, Schoenmaker and Lual remain on the board.
And if my maths are right, our pick 50 is now pick 45.
Something like that.

So as a rough guide line, you're suggesting that our first pick remains pretty much the same while our second pick comes in a handful of spots. Can't really complain if that happens. Probably not much in the way of KPF available at our first pick. Early season brain fart aside, young Shuey sounds a likely prospect, but he's supposed to be a defender.
EX-CRICKETER WITH HUGE UPSIDE
Former state under-19 fast bowler Patrick Weckert hopes his high “upside” boosts his draft chances.
Weckert, a 194cm, 90kg key forward from Woodville-West Torrens, has not undertaken a full football pre-season having been heavily involved in cricket.
He turned heads in 2022 when he kicked 8.1 against North Adelaide in a reserves game – his first in the seniors – at the age of 17.
This year, he played three league matches and booted five goals in a semi-final win over Central District.
Four clubs – Port Adelaide, Collingwood, Richmond and West Coast – were understood to have shown interest in Weckert, who received a late invitation to test on Saturday.
“At the start of the season it probably wasn’t clicking for me,” Weckert said.
“I probably hadn’t had the best preparation for the season with my cricket and not really having much of a pre-season … I only joined in January.
“But towards the back end going into finals I felt like things were starting to click.”
Weckert rejected a SA Cricket Association rookie contract to concentrate on footy.
He is returning to work on his family’s sheep and crop farm, near Koolunga in the mid-north, to help his dad and uncle in the lead-up to the draft.
Weckert has also gained plenty of life perspective this year via a job in plastering and role with the National Disability Insurance Scheme.
“I have one main client who I go out and do fun activities with a couple of times a week and it’s the highlight of their week and a really good feeling to go out and help them,” he said.
“It’s a great way to give back.”

I checked him out a few months ago after Scoop raised his name, looks like a solid bet with a late pick.
194 now makes him legit KPP height, combined with a good leap and strong hands. I hope we get him.
Darcy Wilson is also a state cricketer as well as been an Australian age running champion
Yeah, for our key position stocks, this boy becomes a priority.
Are we co-parenting if we do?
