AFL: Carlton have taken both Lucas and Ben Camporeale who are eager to continue their family legacy after father Scott's incredible career.
The big call Adelaide made was picking South Australian ball-winner Sid Draper over Victoria n onballer Harvey Langford at No. 4. There probably wasn’t a wrong answer for the Crows, but it seemed the safer option nabbing the local product over someone who could eventually desire a move back to his home state . Draper is a ready-made footballer who could make his debut in round one, adding another dimension to the Crows’ midfield.
The Dockers were understood to have had serious interest in selecting Joe Berry with their first-round selection, before Port Adelaide convinced West Coast to move down — with the Power getting their hands on the best small forward in the open pool. Fremantle instead settled on Murphy Reid at No. 17, which is a great selection. The Sandringham Dragons midfielder is a classy and composed operator who will add even more polish to what is already an exciting midfield.
Melbourne’s midfield will receive a big boost with the acquisition of Dandenong Stingrays co-captain Harvey Langford and Gippsland Power midfielder Xavier Lindsay. Langford was a pillar of consistency across all levels this year as a bigger-bodied midfielder, while the classy Lindsay resembles Bombers star Zach Merrett.
The Tigers more than capitalised on their generational draft arsenal, making six picks with the seven first-round selections they entered the night wielding. First, they made GWV Rebels game-breaker Sam Lalor the first overall pick, before adding two more promising midfielder types in big-bodied Eastern Ranges standout Josh Smillie and forward-of-centre hybrid Taj Hotton. They opted to hold fire on picking a key-position player until their fourth selection at No.
