AFL Mock Draft 2007 - Pick 54, West Coast
54. West Coast - Jarrhan Jacky
Small Forward/Midfielder. 180cm, 71kg. Subiaco
Possible comparison: He might be able to play in a similar way to Rhan Hooper, scoring a goal or two per game as a forward pocket but also able to use his speed in the space along the wing too.
Why: West Coast probably do not have this pick in the real draft, as they have a number of earlier picks to use and have delisted very few players, but until the AFL releases the actual draft order they get a pick here in this mock draft, that way a few more prospects can be looked at. The Eagles will want to add a bit of dash and Jacky is a speedy smaller player. If the Eagles did select him they would probably use him exclusively as a forward pocket, they have been looking for some variety next to Big Q close to goals.
Worth a reach: David Ellard, a small forward who has already played in the WAFL.
Hope they slide: Tristan Cartledge, a player like him would be insurance against an injury to Seaby. Nothing would save them if Cox was hurt, although Seaby was good when Cox missed games in 2007, but they do need another backup ruckman with some size.
Selected at pick 54 in the 2006 AFL draft:
Matt Tyler (Brisbane, tall forward)
