Re: How do we rate our 2015 draft?
From a draft perspective it's close to perfect effort by the team and the big job of development awaits.
Dunkley will add to our big midfielders which is something that we have focused on in recent years in a very selective way.
Getting a young, genuine KP defender in Collins was badly needed. I hope we can work on improving his athleticism but he is a terrific selection
When a coach gives you a nickname like 'the specimen' then Marcus Adams was someone very high on our radar. At 22 and physically ready to go he will be given plenty of opportunities.
Bailey Williams looks to be a smooth mover and has neat kicking skills. Might take a year but he could be a steal.
Bradley Lynch has the right sort of athletic attributes you want and while he will take time his ability to kick accurately off both feet at pace should take him a long way. Outstanding addition.
Luke Goetz is being labelled as a ruckman but I think there could be a bit more to him. His athletic attributes might just allow him to play as a key forward or defender. Give him a couple of years and he could be a handful for opposition teams.
Jed Adcock is certainly a player who could get a number of senior games with us.
So there you have it, a great blend of experience types in Adcock and a guy who's on the rise at 22 in Adams.
Two quick and skilled midfield type youngsters in Williams and Lynch.
A KP defender in Collins who could be a brute of a player in a season or two and an emerging and versatile KP talent in the 202cm Goetz plus a big midfielder in Dunkley.
I'd rate this a near A grade effort. Just love the way we raided the rookie draft today. Icing on the cake.
