Corey Watts

A best and fairest winner at Sandringham in his bottom-age year, Watts has some great traits when it comes to key defenders. He reads the ball well in the air, positions himself well and comes across to spoil or clunk an intercept mark. The concern or knock with Watts is when he does win the […]

Riley Garcia

DRAFT ANALYSIS: "A tough and uncompromising midfielder, Garcia has footy smarts and knows how win the ball in close or on the outside."

Joshua Rayner

Jack Bell

DRAFT ANALYSIS: "A raw but talented tall, Bell plays the second ruck/forward role perfectly, and is strong with a nice vertical leap and contested marking ability, though he must build up a tank and some consistency to take his game to the next level."

The Tasmanian Devils tall has been plying his […]

Jared Dakin

POSITION: Inside Midfielder/Forward DRAFT ANALYSIS: “Dakin is an over-age contested ball winner who can play defensive roles as well as find the football himself, while expanding his horizons in 2020 to spend time forward” Jared Dakin earned a late call-up to the Tasmanian Draft Combine testing following a strong season with Launceston in the TSL. He […]

Callum Park

DRAFT ANALYSIS: "A player with some nice outside traits and superb marking ability, Park is looking to build up his strength and endurance to compete against bigger bodies."
