this is my first mock draft ever so be kind
ROUND 1
1.David Swallow WA-Gold Coast
I belive this kid is the best player in the darft this year. The only player i see challange him for this mentle is Harley Bennell but this kid is ready now which is why hes number 1 in my eyes. he has exeptional pace he reminds me of a cross of Chris Judd and Joel Selwood i dont think he has a weakness he excells in pretty much at everything
the Gold Coast already have him on their list.
2.Harley Bennell-Gold Coast
I belive this kid is defintly a top two pick as this kid has just about everything you could ask for in a player he won the Larke Medal as the best player in the Nab AFL Under 18s Championships. This kid just ozes class he can play forward but would better suited to the midfield where he's pace will be more efective the kid plays a lot like Daniel Wells
3.Sam Day-Gold Coast
Sam Day is the best key position forward in the draft. Which is way he will be top 3. He is a key position forward who can take contested marks and is skillful on both sides of he's body he repersented South Australia at the under 18s Championships in 2010 some say plays like Nick Riewoldt for their sakes hope he kicks better.
4.Dyson Heppell-West Coast
West Coast will take this kid i belive.Dyson is a skillful left-footer medium defender/midfielder with a penetrating kick much in the style of Josh Drummond. Who is strong over head with clean hands. He won the MVP for Vic Country and was named All-Australian and joint winner of the Morris Medal.
5.Andrew Gaff-Brisbane Lions
Brisbane will be kicking them selfs that this kid is still available as he is a game breaker with good pace and endurance combination is to dream about was All-Australian team member in the 2010 Nab AFL Under 18s Championships where he averaged 27 disposals

Exceptional agile player with great speed and endurance who has a great athletic ability. Who was All-Australian in the 2010 Under-18s Championships where he averaged 19 disposals and six tackles.

9.Tom Lynch-Gold Coast
Tom is a strong marking forward with terrific workrate and ability at ground level. He was impressive for Vic Country in the Under-18s Championships where he averaged 13 disposals and four marks.

Gorringe was the standout in terms of proformance across the Under-18s Carnival.
