AFL Mock Draft 2007 - Pick 40, Fremantle
40. Fremantle - Andrew Renton
Ruckman. 202cm, 94kg. Eastern/Croydon
Possible comparison: He has the size necessary for the ruck spot and is a solid player with his work around the ground, and can get back and help out the defenders, might be a prospect like Simon Taylor was.
Why: The Dockers have two huge ruckmen, and then close to nothing when it comes to ruck depth. Gilmore and Longmuir can be effective but they are both smaller ruckmen.
Worth a reach: Mitchell Farmer, it has nothing to do with his last name, selecting him would give them another small defender and with Walker gone their depth at that position isn't great.
Hope they slide: Luke Sampey, they can keep him in the WAFL until Tarrant is suspended or Longmuir is hurt.
Selected at pick 40 in the 2006 AFL draft:
Josh P Kennedy (Hawthorn father/son pick, medium forward/midfielder)
