2007 AFL Draft Prospect: Scott Selwood
Name: Scott Selwood
Height: 184
Weight: 81
State: Victoria Country
Club(s): Bendigo/Sandhurst
AFL Positions:
He probably starts his AFL career in a back pocket and then moves into the middle in a few years. S Selwood could also stay in the defensive half, and develop into a player like Wirrpanda or Scotland, who can take control in the back line.
Perfect Fit For:
The Cats might consider using their first round pick on him, while the pairing of Joel and Scott wouldn't be as great as the Lord twins or the Nankervis or Hocking brothers it could be very close.
AFLinsider.net prediction:
Collingwood's second round pick could be used to draft the fourth Selwood. Players like Burns, Licuria and O'Bree are getting to the end of their careers and S Selwood would be a player to eventually use in their roles.
AFL Fantasy Outlook:
He is ready to play at AFL level and might play most of the games next season, so he would be worth signing for fantasy teams, especially if he was eligible as a fantasy defender. His playing time, and fantasy points, would probably be higher if he went to a bad team that picked early in the second round, compared to going to a better team who had a late first round pick. Although his brother, Joel, did show that a first-year player can play on a top team and also help fantasy teams.
