He looks pretty good and is a classy left footer. We won't take him at pick 7 or 8 but if he slides down to pick 34 he would be a good fit for the Saints.

Would be stunned if he was still there at pick 34.

A bargain at that price, but I doubt he'll fall anywhere near that far. If he's still there by some miracle, we should pick him and run like thieves.

Most likely he will be taken but we probably shouldn't have got Battleship last year in the 30's to be honest.

My Bendigo spies tell me he"s similar to another fine local product, Nick Dal Santo. He is exactly what we need but there are better options for 7 and 8. Everything crossed he falls to 34, but most draft watchers have him going from 15 to 25.

He was meant to be drafted much higher. He slipped to us which is great and a bonus.

Yep. Is a shame we will most likely miss on him but there are better fish in the draft pool.
