Inside Football's mock draft from 1-80:

Brett Anderson
Inside Football
November 5, 2015

1. CARLTON
Jacob Weltering | Dandenong Stingrays
The Blues can build their defence for the next 10 years around a player who resembles Geelong's Harry Taylor with the way he controls the air down back.

2. BRISBANE
Josh Sehache | Murray Bushrangers
Brisbane's lack of goalkicking power will get a shot in the arm with the strong marking, straight kicking youngster whose father played for the club in the 1990s.

3. SYDNEY
Callum Mills | North Shore
Some rate Mills as the best player in the draft despite missing nearly the entire season, such was his dominance as a 17-year-old. Think Isaac Heeney Mk II.

4. MELBOURNE
Charlie Curnow | Geelong Falcons
Could well have been the No.l pick with a clear run with injuries. Alongside Jesse Hogan should form a fearsome attacking option in years to come.

5. GWS GIANTS
Jacob Hopper | North Ballarat Rebels
The Giants should be able to plug and play Hopper from day one and ease any pain associated with losing Adam Treloar to Collingwood.

6. ESSENDON
Darcy Parish | Geelong Falcons
The Bombers have been eyeing off the Falcons' "^*'P* youngster all year and will be thrilled to add some more quality to a redeveloping midfield unit.

7. ESSENDON
Sam Weideman | Eastern Ranges
Finding another tail forward to play alongside Joe Daniher is vital for the club's improvement It will also allow Gale Hooker to eventually return to defence.

8. GOLD COAST
Clayton Oliver | Murray Bushrangers
A big second half of the year has shot the big-bodied midfielder into top 10 calculations. The Suns have made no secret of their desire for another inside mid.

9. GWS GIANTS
Matthew Kennedy | Collingullie-GP
In years to come he may prove to be the pick of the crop. Not many midfielders can go forward and take contested marks as he can. A bit of Ollie Wines about him.

10. MELBOURNE
Kieran Collins | Dandenong Stingrays
Lynden Dunn punches' above his weight so the lure of a strong-bodied defender is tempting. Would allow the Dees to focus on mids in the future.

11. CARLTON
Harry McKay | Gippsland Power
Goals, goals, goals. The Blues have had awful trouble finding (and keeping) a key forward in recent times but in McKay they will have a hard worker who is very capable.

12. BRISBANE
Eric Hipwood | Aspley
Hipwood can play at centre half back or centre half forward - both areas of need for the Lions. Now at 202cm, he could also pinch-hit in the ruck.

13. ADELAIDE
Wayne Milera | Central District
The Crows will toss and turn over which South Australian to take, but may see the silky half forward as the best selection and hope Francis slips through to No.16.

14. CARLTON
Aaron Francis | West Adelaide
Carlton could opt to take Harry's brother Ben but having missed out on Brendon Goddard years ago take a player who shares some similar traits.

15. RICHMOND
Callum Ah Chee | South Fremantle
A creative small forward has for seeminlgy forever and Ah Chee can come in and play that role before eventually moving into midfield.

16. ADELAIDE
Ben McKay | Gippsland Power
The Crows' key position stocks are deep at both ends and having shown glimpses in defence and attack, McKay would be a smart pick if Francis is off the board.

17. ST KILDA
Rhys Mathieson | Geelong Falcons
St Kilda could go a few ways but is still looking to beef up the midfield and could use a competitive beast who excels around the stoppages like "The Big Dog".

18. HAWTHORN
Riley Bonner | West Adelaide
With Matt Suckling gone and Shaun Burgoyne nearing the end, another good ball distributor from half back would be a nice addition for the reigning premier.

19. BRISBANE
Ben Keays | Brisbane Lions
Keays has excelled at every level he has played thus far and should be right to step in straight away and give the Lions some extra grunt around the midfield.

20. GOLD COAST
Ryan Clarke | Eastern Ranges
Clarke's ability to push forward and kick goals could see him go earlier. He would be a wise addition given question marks over the long-term intentions of O'Meara and Prestia.

21. NORTH MELBOURNE
Mitchell Hibberd | Clarence
North supporter since birth and a great fit for the Roos as a tall, athletic midfielder - something lacking on their list

22. HAWTHORN
Daniel Rioli | St Mary's
Rioli has shot up the boards in the past few months and may even go earlier than the Hawks' second first-round pick. Teaming up with Uncle Cyril would be a story.

23. CARLTON
Jade Gresham | Northern Knights
Add a few centimetres to his height and he is a top 10 pick. As a creative inside/outside midfielder, the Blues would be getting great value and a potential future star.

24. WESTERN BULLDOGS
Darcy Tucker | North Ballarat Rebels
Tucker suits the Bulldogs' style perfectly with his hard running at half back. Seen as a top-five chance at the start of the season and is as professional as they come,

25. WESTERN BULLDOGS
Braden Florini | Northern Knights
Smooth left footer who has been a big possession winner this year as a wingman and drifting inside. Hariey Balic is another that could be considered here.

26. FREMANTLE
Harley Balic | Sandringham Dragons

27. WEST COAST
Aidyn Johnson | Bendigo Pioneers

28. ESSENDON
Tom Cole | Bendigo Pioneers

29. ESSENDON
Ryan Burton | North Adelaide

30. NORTH MELBOURNE
Mason Redman | Glenelg

31. COLLINGWOOD
Alex Morgan | Oakleigh Chargers

32. NORTH MELBOURNE
Ben Crocker | Oakleigh Chargers

33. GOLD COAST
Luke Partington | Port Adelaide

34. ST KILDA
Bailey Rice | Dandenong Stingrays

35. WESTERN BULLDOGS
Josh Dunkley | Gippsland Power

36. WEST COAST
Greg Clark | Subiaco

37. GWS GIANTS
Harrison Himmelberg | Eastlake

38. PORT ADELAIDE
Brandon White | Dandenong Stingrays

Huh? Where's pick 12 for us? Picks look out of order.
 
I can't believe people think Milera might last to 13. We need to swoop on that dude if he is still around at our pick. Looks like a genuine gun to me.

It's because of the new bidding process. Our pick will probably be 15th on the night but it's 12th in terms of live picks.

The name Milera scares me.

Absolutely agree mate. No chance surely. Would be a dream for us.
 
When I look at that phantom draft I can't understand comments like

" Add a few centimetres to his height and he is a top 10 pick. As a creative inside/outside midfielder, the Blues would be getting great value and a potential future star."

He is either a future star or he isn't and if he is why do a few centimetres make any difference ?

If he really is a future star and he is around at our pick we should take him.

200cm ruckman so there's no way we,ll be picking him.....
 
With the addition of both Townsend and Moore as midfield insurance I think we go best available still.

Yes we got Yarran who fills a need but Townsend and Moore are no certainty to make it.

If best available is a mid then so be it, our mids will be well stocked and we can focus on needs based players later in the draft or next year.

Good chance to have a touted top 10 player slide to us at 12.
Academy and f/s bidding will be very interesting too.

Lions will give up the farm for Keays so I have heard.

Our 2nd pick could well end up being in the mid 30s if a bidding frenzy occurs.

Anybody understand how this works? It's more complicated than our tax system.

I can’t see it happening. I still want Mathesion but if Milera was on the board he’d be the one that would make me pause.
 
If Collins is still there, anyone reckon we might take him? Cal Twomey reckons he could play right away.
 
Just watched ClaytonOliver's highlights. That's the kid we need.

Any chance him slipping to us. :help
 
No Kerbatieh in the IF Mock Draft?

Apparently, draft meja types have us firming on Burton at 12, who was supposedly touted as the 2015 #1 during 2014 til his horrendous injury (not for the squeamish)

Kerbatieh ran a 14 min 3km time trial, very unimpressive.
