AFL Mock Draft 2007 - Pick 12, Hawthorn
12. Hawthorn - Tom Collier
Tall Defender/Midfielder. 192cm, 86kg. Lauderdale
Possible comparison: He has the size and running ability of Birchall, but is also a bit stronger with his body and in marking contests. Collier has shown the ability to play in the middle if needed, so there is a chance he could become a player like C Cornes.
Why: Just a coincidence that he is from Tasmania, more importantly he gives them another taller defender.
Worth a reach: Scott Selwood, the Hawks did lose a few smaller players like Vandenberg, and teams with a Selwood are often in the Grand Final.
Hope they slide: Alex Rance, he might be the best prospect among the big backs in the draft, and he could be the final piece that Hawthorn need but it is only a slim chance that he gets to pick 12.
Selected at pick 12 in the 2006 AFL draft:
James Frawley (Melbourne, tall defender)
