AFL Mock Draft 2007 - Pick 19, Western Bulldogs
October 26th 2007 02:20
19. Western Bulldogs - Jack Grimes
Midfielder. 187cm, 76. Northern/Hurstbridge
Possible comparison: He is a leader who works hard, someone like Kane Johnson or Brett Kirk.
Why: The Bulldogs have talked about getting bigger all over the ground, Grimes would add a larger body to their midfield. Grimes would give them a future leader for the team while also adding someone who is ready to play AFL in round 1 of 2008.
Worth a reach: Chris Kangars, Tom Williams was drafted as a tall midfielder project but he has been slowed in his development by injuries and it seems he will be played in the back half. Kangars can run and would add a lot of height to their midfield group, and he would also be an option for them in the back line too.
Hope they slide: Tayte Pears, if they take him here then maybe they could try again to unleash Tom Williams into the middle of the ground, as Pears could play centre half back for them.
Selected at pick 19 in the 2006 AFL draft:
Shaun Grigg (Carlton, midfielder/medium forward)
