AFL Mock Draft 2007 - Pick 44, Geelong
44. Geelong - Darin Stewart
Tall Defender/Forward. 191cm, 87kg. Broadbeach
Possible comparison: He might be a prospect who follows what Luke McGuane did, first being tried as a forward but then being turned into a defensive player.
Why: The Cats traded away and delisted a number of bigger players, Stewart would give them a player to develop as a tall defender. He might also become a marking player around half forward, sort of a secondary centre half forward who leads long through the middle of the ground.
Worth a reach: Matthew Lobbe, the Cats could give him a few years in the VFL as they don't need anything from their draft picks next year and Lobbe needs to get a bit bigger too.
Hope they slide: Patrick Dangerfield, he will be on their draft wish list.
Selected at pick 44 in the 2006 AFL draft:
Brad Dick (Collingwood, small forward/midfielder)
