CLUB-TIED TALENT:

After a combined four father-son and academy bids dropped on night one, there remain a few which could see out the National Draft tonight. Perhaps the most pertinent one is that of Alwyn Davey Jr, who looks likely to attract attention after Essendon’s second round pick. That would be ideal for the Bombers, but don’t count something dramatic out.

The Bombers will also hope NGA product Anthony Munkara slides all the way through tomorrow night’s intake to list him as a Category B rookie. Essendon would be able to match a bid from pick 41, onwards. Meanwhile, Alwyn’s twin brother Jayden Davey will be snapped up with Essendon’s final pick on night two.

Similarly, North Melbourne will look to welcome father-son nominee Cooper Harvey with its last pick in the National Draft, though he may attract earlier interest. Hawthorn NGA Cooper Vickery may also be on the radar for other clubs, but should sneak past pick 40.

The Hawks will also have to consider fellow NGA talent Josh Bennetts, who should be available as a rookie option. Same goes for father-son candidate Jerome Lawrence, who was not nominated by the club but remains in contention to be picked up.

Geelong is another club which has committed to aligned players through the rookie draft. Osca Riccardi, the son of Peter, and Geelong Falcons teammate Ted Clohesy have been given a word of confidence after strong NAB League seasons.

Elsewhere in the NGA realm, Conrad Williams and Josh Draper are both in line for Category B spots at Fremantle should they pass through night two. The club also had access to Jasper Scaife and Chase Bourne.

Local rival, West Coast nominated a couple of its own prospects in Tyrell Dewar and Jordyn Baker, who could also end up as Category B’s. At Port Adelaide, Nathan Barkla is in the same boat and over-ager Angus McLennan is a handy smokie for St Kilda. On the flip side, it seems Melbourne has opted against nominating Finn Emile-Brennan.

Looking at the Northern Academies, Gold Coast will have access to Lloyd Johnston, while GWS has Nick Madden to consider and Sydney boasts Will Edwards. While unavailable as an academy-tied talent in the National Draft, Brisbane can rookie Shadeau Brain should he make it there.
