AFL Draft preview: St Kilda
ST KILDA had a disappointing year after such high expectations coming into 2018, and Saints fans were left wondering how they had slipped to the bottom four. They enter the draft with pick four, followed by a couple of mid-draft selections and a couple of late selections, meaning they can fill needs, as well as […]
AFL Draft preview: Sydney
THE Swans have plenty of talent across the field but will be looking to invest in depth and inject some pace into their side to ensure that they can feature late into September having made it to the last 10 finals series and only winning one flag. But through some clever swaps during the trade […]
AFL Draft preview: Port Adelaide
PORT Adelaide’s 2018 season can only be described as a “wasted season.” The Power were sitting in fourth position after round 16 with 11 wins, before slumping to tenth spot, winning just one more game before the season concluded. They recruited strongly in the 2017 off-season, bringing in three players – Jack Watts, Tom Rockliff […]

AFL Draft preview: North Melbourne
MANY commentators and punters predicted North Melbourne to be in the bottom five of the AFL in 2018.

AFL Draft preview: Melbourne
MELBOURNE reached the penultimate weekend of the season before disappointingly bowing out to a red-hot West Coast at Optus Stadium. With the acquisitions of Steven May and Kade Kolodjashnij over the trade period, the Demons have one of the most well-balanced lists in the competition. They might target some outside run to help with their […]
AFL Draft preview: Hawthorn
HAWTHORN has the weakest draft hand in the league after trading some of their picks for ready-made players such as Chad Wingard in the hope of staying at the top of table. But with an ageing list, Hawthorn will be looking to inject some more speed and another key forward to help-out Jarryd Roughead into […]
AFL Draft preview: GWS GIANTS
GWS GIANTS enter the draft with a very strong hand, holding four picks inside the top 25. They will likely use the latter one to match a bid for a GIANTS Academy prospect, but be able to fill a need at the same time. They lost a number of players over the off-season for various […]
