AFL Mock Draft 2007 - Pick 62, Geelong
62. Geelong - Callan Ward
183cm, 71kg. Small Forward/Midfielder. Western/Spotswood
Possible comparison: Travis Johnstone, has the skills and can get the stats but may not be the best when it comes to making the right decisions. Ward has played at half back as well as in the middle and has also shown some goal-scoring ability.
Why: Geelong will probably have finished drafting when this pick is up in the real draft, but until the official draft order is released they get another pick here. Ward would be good for the Geelong list as he could be a backup for several positions.
Worth a reach: Andy Otten, Geelong traded away several tall players and they can replace some of that height with Otten, although it might get confusing for some there with Otten and Ottens.
Hope they slide: Jarrhan Jacky, the Cats have the strength and skill in the middle and while they do have speed they could use a bit more of it in the middle of the ground, as Byrne or Varcoe are often forward while Wojcinski is often at half back.
Selected at pick 62 in the 2006 AFL draft:
Isack Weetra (Melbourne, small forward)
