After months of chopping, changing, swapping and adding I have come up with my phantom draft as it stands now. There are still multiple players that I could see moving around, but that is the nature of completing a phantom draft. Before reading I believe it’s always helpful to explain what I call qualifications for making a phantom draft. This year I’ve been lucky to attend over 50 TAC Cup matches and all the Under 18s Championships. This means that naturally my viewing of the Victorian players is considerably more, however I have been lucky enough to see multiple matches of the interstate players.

#1 – Greater Western Sydney – Tom Boyd (Eastern Ranges) 198 cm, 101 kg

Tom Boyd is by far the superior key forward in the draft. Much has been spoken about him but in a nutshell he’s good overhead, reads the play well and is a nice shot for goal. More importantly he’s a different type of forward to Jonathan Patton and Jeremy Cameron meaning the Giants could play all three in the one forward line. Boyd has the potential to become one of the best key forwards given his size and ability.

#2 – Greater Western Sydney – Josh Kelly (Sandringham) 182 cm, 73 kg

Josh Kelly is an elite ball user and has no trouble finding it either. No doubt he would have been in consideration had Melbourne kept this pick, but he finds himself heading to western Sydney to provide more outside class for a midfield that is already jam packed full of talented youngsters. When Kelly needed to stand up at the Under 18s Championships he did. A clearance gem, Kelly rarely misses targets inside 50 and has enough pace to get away from clearances. May not play straight away, but he’s not far off and should taste senior action in 2014.

#3 – St Kilda – Jack Billings (Oakleigh) 183 cm, 78 kg

Strong medium forward who has shown he can play midfield in stints. Billings’ greatest strength is his overhead marking. For a 183 cm player you’d think he was well over 190 cm given his contested marking ability. He runs to the right places, creates space and works well with taller targets. The biggest question marks surround whether he can play as a full-time midfielder and how he’s recovered from his various injuries which would be of some concern. He’s been on clubs’ radars for a number of years been a top talent and impressed in 2012 as a bottom-ager. Too good to fall far in this draft.

#4 – Western Bulldogs – Marcus Bontempelli (Northern) 191 cm, 83 kg

It seems as though the Bulldogs will be the first to bite the bullet with Bontempelli. On 2013 output he’s probably a mid first round pick, but throw in potential and he moves right up the order. He is rare tall midfielder in the drafts and is a good user by hand or foot. A trademark of his game is his run and carry which helped by his booming kick that can clear the 50 metre ark. The biggest question mark for me is his consistency. Bontempelli’s best is amazing, but his worst is pretty disappointing. If he can string consistency together, he’ll become a very good player.

#5 – Gold Coast – Kade Kolodjashnij (Launceston) 188 cm, 76 kg

Kade is the first of the twins to go and Gold Coast has had its eye on him for a while. Originally a second round pick, Kolodjashnij has shot up the order after an impressive Under 18s Championships. Has moved into the middle at times as well as half back and looked composed. Other strengths include ball getting and rebounding, however he is primarily outside which is why he settles at half back. Kolodjashnij makes good decisions and with the selection of Jesse Lonergan last season, the Suns are building quite a Tasmanian portfolio. Kolodjashnij could also play a few games in 2014 but still needs to put on a bit of muscle.

#6 – Collingwood – James Aish (Norwood) 183 cm, 74 kg

It’s hard to believe that James Aish could slip to number six when this time last year he would have been pushing Boyd for pick one. He’s an elite user who’s had a few injury concerns this year, but has shown in the SANFL that he can mix it with the bigger bodies at senior level. Other strengths include awareness, vision and class. Aish reminds me a fair bit of Trent Cotchin. While he doesn’t find the footy as much as some of the others, he rarely wastes a disposal and is an absolute steal at pick six.

#7 – Brisbane – Matt Scharenberg (Glenelg) 190 cm, 89 kg

Scharenberg has enjoyed a yo-yo draft positioning this season after being a first round pick, shooting up to a top five pick then drifting to just inside the top ten. He’s really strong overhead, reads the play well and is a great link up player, someone Brisbane could rely on having there. Lately there have been rumours about bung ankles but it won’t scare off too many with Scharenberg a member of the AIS Academy this season. With no tagging allowed in the Under 18s and Scharenberg playing off a flank, it’s hard to know how he will go when he receives attention. However without it, he’s a quality player.

#8 – North Melbourne – Luke McDonald (Werribee) 188 cm, 80 kg

North Melbourne have had McDonald locked away for a little while now but it will all be official as of Thursday night. He’s played for VFL affiliate Werribee and looked impressive, preparing for a potential round one debut next season given his mature body. Has a raking hoof of a kick too. While North Melbourne fans have built up the hype surrounding McDonald to unbelievable levels, he is a quality player and pick eight is just under what he’s worth, so good value on their behalf.

#9 – Melbourne – Christian Salem (Sandringham) 183 cm, 82 kg

In many circles Salem is incredibly underrated. I rate him as a top five pick and it’s only really his ball getting that he needs to work on. He’s an elite user, can go forward and find the goals, win his own footy and is as tough as nails, everything you want in a footballer. Salem reminds me remarkably of Scott Pendlebury with his “time and space” where time seems to pause around him. He’s the kind of player you want with the ball when there’s 30 seconds left and you’re five points down. Much like Aish and Kelly, he rarely wastes it by foot and is more contested which makes him a very handy prospect and Melbourne will be picking up a gem here.

#10 – Collingwood – Nathan Freeman (Sandringham) 182 cm, 85 kg

Freeman is one who has pushed himself into the top ten after  a fantastic Draft Combine where he was elite in the speed categories. He has the ability to sidestep opponents and burst away from clearances more so than many others in this draft class. Freeman’s athleticism is well documented, but he can also play football. While many of the others are what you would call a “traditional footballer”, Freeman just backs his instincts and goes. Sometimes he can rush his disposal thinking he has less time than he does, but usually he can get himself out of trouble. An interesting selection that has been likened to Patrick Dangerfield so one to watch.

#11 – West Coast – Dominic Sheed (Subiaco) 183 cm, 82 kg

Sheed is one of the better offensive midfielders in this draft. His one weakness is speed. If it wasn’t for his pace, he’d be considered the most complete midfielder. He is still able to dominate his opponents and hurt them on the scoreboard too. He was one of the few West Australian teenagers to play seniors football and cope well so expect him to be ready made from the get go next year.

#12 – Richmond – Ben Lennon (Northern) 187 cm, 79 kg

Strong marking forward target who can play through the midfield or off half back such is his versatility. Could go anywhere from pick seven to pick 12 and is a gem. Very good value this late. Much like Jack Billings, Lennon is most dangerous up forward, but has no troubles finding the ball through the midfield. He adds another dimension to any forward line given his ability to both mark and crumb.

#13 – Carlton – Blake Acres (West Perth) 188 cm, 84 kg

Acres is another fantastic ball user who, due to injury hasn’t been able to stand out as much as others this season. He could have pushed top ten if he’d stayed on the park. Acres might provide that extra skilled midfielder at the Blues and while he might slip as far as the Saints, it’s hard to see him falling much further into the second round. One to watch from this draft.

#14 – GWS – Lewis Taylor (Geelong) 173 cm, 73 kg

It’s hard to see someone of Taylor’s ability slip to pick 14 but that’s what looks like happening. He is a incredible runner who just goes all day and influences his teammates around him. He averaged over 30 disposals a game in the TAC Cup. He can occasionally rush his kicks, but the amount of contests he wills himself to all over the ground will have him a fan favourite in no time.

#15 – Sydney – Luke Dunstan (Woodville West-Torrens) 185 cm, 83 kg

Dunstan in another player that could go anywhere from mid-first round to late-second round and isn’t talked about given he is considered less flashy than others around him. Still a very impressive talent and future captain. He was talked about as a top five pick but doesn’t have the attributes that stand out like others. He could very easily become a very solid player who forges a long career.

#16 – Geelong – Zac Jones (Dandenong) 181 cm, 74 kg

Jones is the brother of Melbourne’s Nathan and he plays similar too. More of a half back than his brother but has the same aggression and uses the ball a little better too. One of those players fans will love, while opposition players may despise because of his willingness to get stuck into the opposition. Jones is a ferocious tackler who lets his footy do the talking and has great versatility as well as speed across the ground. Similar to Alan Toovey but with good foot skills.

#17 – Fremantle – Cameron McCarthy (South Fremantle) – 195 cm, 89 kg

McCarthy could be selected at high as pick seven or slip down to here. It’s hard to see Fremantle passing up the second best key forward in the draft. He’s incredibly athletic and has huge potential to become a really strong forward. He’s highly rated by a few clubs but a needs basis might send him here and if he can fulfil the potential expected of him, he will be a fantastic player.

#18 – St Kilda – Darcy Gardiner (Geelong) 192 cm, 84 kg

Gardiner is arguably the best key defender in the draft. He’s athletically gifted for his height and can play at either end. While St Kilda may elect to pick up two midfielders here, they may just secure their key defense posts a bit more. Is just as adapt at marking or spoiling and can play on tall or small which helps. Will need to bulk up a little over the next year, however.

#19 – St Kilda – Billy Hartung (Dandenong) 176 cm, 70 kg

Hartung has potentially the biggest hurt factor in the TAC Cup. His biggest weakness is his ability to work defensively, but as the season wore on, he improved in that area. Has a great burst speed and elite endurance. While he was quiet in the Grand Final, his two goals in quick succession showed how he can turn a game. Could be a top ten player from this draft down the track.

#20 – Gold Coast – Trent Dumont (Norwood) 186 cm, 83 kg

Dumont is a talented inside midfielder yet he has seemingly disappeared from early first round calculations. He’ll be there abouts though and really good value for the Suns here if they select him. Very similar to Ollie Wines with good endurance but little outside capabilities. Regardless he’s one that could become a captain and a 200 game player, like a Luke Ball.

#21 – Port Adelaide – James Battersby (Sturt) 177 cm, 78 kg

James Battersby is an underrated talent and while I might be having him a bit high here, I think a lot of clubs rate him pretty highly. He was one who really stood out for me in the Under 18s Championships. Can play defence, forward or through the middle which makes him a versatile prospect. Can find the footy a fair bit and despite his height, is a nuggety little player who could play senior footy next year.

#22 – Brisbane – Jonathon Marsh (East Fremantle) 191 cm, 89 kg

Marsh is the big question mark of the draft. He could go first round or he could go third round. He has plenty of potential and has shown what he can do, but just doesn’t have the consistency. A freak athlete who could be a slightly smaller Buddy Franklin with midfield capabilities if groomed in the right environment.

#23 – Adelaide – Matt Crouch (North Ballarat) 181 cm, 80 kg

Surely Crouch couldn’t slip to here? He’s a first round prospect because of his elite vision and awareness around stoppages. Crouch does have clear deficiencies with disposal and athleticism, but he is a clearance expert and averaged more disposals than any other player in the TAC Cup. Crouch leads from the front and is able to see plays well before they happen and to make it to the Crows is a huge steal.

#24 – Hawthorn – Dale Garlett (Swan Districts) 181 cm, 75 kg

If Marsh is a question mark, Garlett is the biggest question mark of all-time. On ability he is a lock for first round. Unfortunately continued rumours of off-field shenanigans has brought his draftability into question time and time again. He legitimately could go anywhere from first round to undrafted, much like last year. Fantastic ball user and plenty of hurt factor.

#25 – Brisbane – Patrick Cripps (East Fremantle) 188 cm, 88 kg

Patrick is the cousin of Jamie and while clubs will be wary of Jamie’s homesickness, Patrick is another talent too good to pass up. He’s another inside midfielder similar to Dumont, but does lack athleticism. He’s a clearance machine however, and has a readymade body to play AFL. Could potentially go first round or slip into late-second round.

#26 – Essendon – James Sicily (Western) 186 cm, 75 kg

James Sicily is the Ben Lennon/Jack Billings of the second round. He is incredibly strong overhead, has good pace and can crumb goals as well. He reads the play about as well as anyone in the draft crop and is a perfect replacement for Stewart Crameri. Stood up in finals too which is important for medium forwards. He has scope to move into the midfield later in his career. One player that has really grown on me as the season has gone on.

#27 – Gold Coast – Darcy Hourigan (South Adelaide) 190 cm, 92 kg

Hourigan has slid down the order somewhat after being a clear first rounder after an impressive Under 18s Championships. Unfortunately his SANFL form fell away and questions started surrounding whether his height would be good enough for a key forward post at AFL level. He isn’t the most athletic player, but he’s strong and times his leads well. It will be interesting to see if he slides further like Tim Membrey last year.

#28 – Brisbane – Isaiah Miller (Bendigo) 187 cm, 82 kg

Isaiah Miller is your typical offensive half back. He has fantastic skills, reads the game well and is able to position himself accordingly to chop off leads. Miller’s biggest weakness is his disposal under pressure which can cause him to make uncharacteristic errors. He isn’t overly quick, but finds the space to make up for it. Another player who has the size to compete at AFL level early on.

#29 – Greater Western Sydney – Toby Nankervis (North Launceston) 199 cm, 100 kg

Nankervis is one of the best improvers after missing out on selection last year. While he doesn’t have a huge vertical leap, he is incredibly strong and plays the ruck-forward role to perfection. He’s 199 cm and 100 kg so he’ll be able to play from round one should he be selected. If he can combine with Mumford well, the Giants will have two monsters in the ruck.

#30 – North Melbourne – Jay Kennedy-Harris (Oakleigh) 173 cm, 68 kg

Jay Kennedy-Harris could well be a first round pick if he had a tank. Basically his main weakness is endurance but aside from that, he has shown he can tear games open. Unfortunately it does mean he can go missing at times, but when he is on song, he can really dominate. Classy ball user who is very smart around clearances and can kick goals when drifting into space up forward.

#31 – West Coast – Daniel McStay (Eastern Ranges) 194 cm, 88 kg

McStay recorded the highest disposal efficiency of any TAC Cup player to play over 10 games. He played primarily in defense but drifted across the wing and up forward. Is the ideal substitute to start with and very similar to Tyson Goldsack. Great size means he can play on key position players, however he will want to bulk up a little to take the monsters. Otherwise he’s a perfect choice to fill a hole anywhere on the field.

#32 – Sydney – Mitch Honeychurch (Eastern Ranges) 175 cm, 65 kg

The biggest call I will make is that if Honeychurch had of stayed fully fit he would be top 10. Many people will look at his height and weight then wonder how he manages to play midfield. The amazing thing is that he is quite strong below the hips and can shake off tackles while disposing of it cleanly. His ability to find the ball and move through stoppages is Gary Ablett Jnr. as an 18 year old like. Injuries have curtailed his year leaving question marks surrounding his durability, but if he can stay fit he is a steal for the club that selects him.

#33 – Brisbane – Michael Apeness (Eastern Ranges) 199 cm, 101 kg

Michael Apeness is a rare type in this draft. A readymade ruck/forward who stood out when Tom Boyd was injured. This allowed Apeness to play not only for Eastern Ranges but Vic Metro as the main target. He is a strong contested mark and a solid kick for goal. Apeness showed early in the season he can play key back but he’s more damaging up forward rotating through the ruck.

#34 – Brisbane – Zach Merrett (Sandringham) 176 cm, 79 kg

Zach Merrett has been touted as a first rounder. He has fantastic awareness and good ball skills, but at times has just lacked a bit of consistency. Merrett is a predominantly outside player because of his skills, but has struggled to run defensively at times. He’s a tenacious tackler with great vision and if he can work on the defensive part of his game, he’ll be a very good player.

#35 – Sydney – Rory Lobb (Swan Districts) 205 cm, 98 kg

Rory Lobb is the one player in this phantom draft I haven’t seen live. From all reports he is a strong contested mark and ferocious tackler which is similar to Brodie Grundy last year. At 205 cm and 98 kg, the mature recruit is ready made for AFL and his rapid rise to fame would be a fairytale should he be selected.

#36 – Geelong – James Tsitas (Geelong) 180 cm, 77 kg

James Tsitas is your no-frills footballer. He doesn’t do the flashy runs or the look-away handballs, he just sees footy, gets footy. Often described as the “nuts and bolts” of the Geelong midfield, he’s a consistent midfielder who will rack up disposals while making sure his teammates are able to get it on the outside. He played a fair bit inside this year and given the contested situation, it was hard to gauge his disposal efficiency. At the draft combine he scored 100 per cent on the kicking test which would have impressed most clubs. A great get if you’re after a consistent midfielder.

#37 – Fremantle – Darcy Byrne-Jones (Oakleigh) 180 cm, 69 cm

Darcy Byrne-Jones is another small defender and while he lacks pace, he makes up for it with poise. He was one of the best for Vic Metro at the Under 18s Championships and has had a really consistent season with Oakleigh. Can find the ball and more importantly win his own ball in contested situations which is important in defence. Byrne-Jones may be on the light side, but with a pre-season in the gym, he should bulk up and be a solid contributor.

#38 – Hawthorn – Jarman Impey (Murray) 177 cm, 78 kg

Impey is another player who’s best is incredibly good but his worst is very disappointing. He flashes in and out at times, teasing fans with what he can do, but just doesn’t have the consistency to do it on a regular basis. His kicking is very good and his ability to find space and execute passes under pressure is great. Impey can play as that small forward who eventually moves into the midfield.

#39 – Carlton – Mitch Thorp (South Launceston) 194 cm, 94 kg

For the last few years, Hawthorn has been criticised for using a top ten selection on Thorp all those years ago. Now the big man has finally developed and Carlton are among teams sniffing around. He has been impressive for South Launceston this season and of course is ready made to start round one if required. He also gives Carlton that tall forward option they are looking for.

#40 – Melbourne – Malcolm Karpany (WWT) 176 cm, 72 kg

Karpany is an interesting player. From all reports he is slowly rising up from a potential draftee to a bonafide selection. He’s a small forward who is dangerous around goals, but like some small forwards can struggle for consistency. Is only small, but can match it with the bigger bodies and has a nice set of wheels which helps him. Could go anywhere from second round to undrafted.

#41 – Geelong – Louis Herbert (North Ballarat) 187 cm, 75 kg

Louis Herbert is another over-ager who has improved out of sight this year. After being a medium forward with a good leap last year, he transformed into the ultimate utility, ranging from half back to the wing and up forward. While the Rebels didn’t have a good season, Herbert was a shining light and was amongst the best in nearly every game he played. He’s still a bit on the skinny side but has talent that will help any side needing a utility.

#42 – Western Bulldogs – Mitch Harvey (North Adelaide) 195 cm, 97 kg

Mitch Harvey was impressive at the Under 18s Championships and was talked up as a second round pick. The nephew of Pies’ recruiter Matt Rendell has the size to slot straight into AFL. He has a good turn of speed for someone of his height and weight, while also being a reliable kick for goal. If he can work on his consistency, he could be a fantastic get late.

#43 – West Coast – Alex Spina (North Adelaide) 181 cm, 75 kg

Alex Spina is another small forward who was rated highly at the start of the year but consistency has seen him drift in the rankings. His Under 18s Championships weren’t the best, but he has shown in the past that he has a knack for kicking goals. While he tends to play as that high half forward, clubs will no doubt be keen to test him out in the midfield down the track.

#44 – Sydney – Luke Reynolds (Port Adelaide) 188 cm, 86 kg

Luke Reynolds is another unknown quantity. His kicking action reminds me a bit of Buddy Franklin. In that way I mean he can swing around and slot a goal from 55 metres and then miss a shot 30 metres out. While he might be a lucky dip with his kicking, he finds the ball well for a medium forward and has a good leap which has seen him play as a key forward before. Reynolds has the ability to move into the midfield in the future.

#45 – Port Adelaide – Darcy Cameron (Claremont) 203 cm, 98 kg

Darcy Cameron is arguably the second best ruck behind Toby Nankervis. He’s 203 cm and 98 kg with a great leap and solid tap work. He’s the kind of player that is born to play first ruck and has great versatility for someone of his size.

#46 – Adelaide – Tom Cutler (Oakleigh Chargers) 190 cm, 86 kg

Tom Cutler was a member of the AIS Academy squad and had a disappointing year due to injury. He showed at times that he has the talent to become a good AFL player, but being a third tall doesn’t help. He has great foot skills and reads the play well, chopping off opposition leads. He could go as early as the first round, but given his injury plagued season, second to third round is more likely.

#47 – North Melbourne – Darcy Lang (Geelong) 181 cm, 77 kg

Darcy Lang is your dual midfielder type who loves winning the contested ball, but has the pace and skills to use it on the outside. A sickening leg injury ruled him out of the second half of the season, but he had done enough up to that point to warrant selection. Internally at the Falcons he was rated as one of the best and should find a home in the second or third rounds.

#48 – Greater Western Sydney – Cameron Giles (WWT) 195 cm, 93 kg

Cameron Giles is the second best pure key defender in the draft. While there are plenty of switch players or third talls, Giles is your typical full-back or half-back. He is able to spoil the ball more often than not and is very handy defensively. At his size he is readymade to compete at AFL level and a club such as GWS needing a key defender would be keen on acquiring his services.

#49 – West Coast – Nick Robertson (West Perth) 188 cm, 82 kg

Nick Robertson is another unknown quantity. He’s had injury concerns throughout the year and has drifted out of calculations that saw him as a first round prospect. Can’t see him falling much further given his talent and has similar traits to Brendon Goddard. He doesn’t quite have the hurt factor that Goddard does, but he plays off half back and through the midfield with much success.

#50 – Richmond – Jarred Ellis (Broadbeach) 189 cm, 80 kg

Jarred Ellis is a player who similar to Spencer White last year has an impressive highlights package. A solid player who’s spent time with Gold Coast’s and GWS’ reserves, he has played through the NEAFL standing out for his huge vertical leap and neat kicking skills. He scored a full 100 per cent on the goal kicking test at the draft combine and is expected to go somewhere between the second and fourth rounds.

#51 – Carlton – Chris Cain (Port Melbourne) 181 cm, 82 kg

Chris Cain is expected to be the Sam Dwyer of 2013. A mature-aged recruit from Port Melbourne, Cain has been one of the best all year and was rewarded with a plethora of awards. He is a dangerous player who primarily plays midfield but can move around the ground well. Still has a number of years left in him and times not far off a premiership are sure to be keen.

#52 – Port Adelaide – Riley Knight (WWT) 180 cm, 72 kg

Riley Knight is a good ball user who is similar to Collingwood’s Steele Sidebottom with his fantastic endurance and ball winning ability. He has stood up when require despite not having the accolades of some of his teammates. The one knock on him is his ability to play a bit safe and lack hurt factor. If he can increase his offensive work to match his ball skills, he will become a very dangerous player.

#53 – Sydney – Nic Bourke (Geelong) 188 cm, 80 kg

Nic Bourke is a half back/wing who made the AIS Academy squad at the end of last season. Injury set back his preseason and while he found form towards the end of the season, didn’t have the ideal season he would have liked. When he hit his straps, he was a fantastic link up player that reads the play well and positions himself in front of key forwards. Uses the ball reasonably well too which helps and if he can stay injury free, he’ll be good value at this stage of the draft.

#54 – Geelong – Rookie elevation

#55 – Essendon – Zac Webster (Glenorchy) 180 cm, 74 kg

Zac Webster was all the rage early in the year, but his teammates such as Kade Kolodjashnij and Toby Nankervis have overtaken him. Both he and Eli Templeton could both be around this stage or both could go earlier. It’s a personal preference but I like the look of Webster who has good agility and can get away from his opponent if given the space. Can rush his disposal at times and lack consistency, however.

#56 – Hawthorn – Karl Amon (Sandringham) 180 cm, 73 kg

Karl Amon is one of the more underrated players in the draft. He is a really slick ball user who knows how to find the footy on the outside, but can win his own ball as well. Often hidden behind Josh Kelly, Christian Salem and Nathan Freeman at Sandringham, Amon is a respected ball winner who can hurt teams on the outside. If he lasts this long, he’ll be a fantastic pick up and could well go earlier.
