AFL Mock Draft 2007 - Pick 80, Kangaroos
80. Kangaroos - Simon Starling
Small Defender. 181cm, 83kg. Claremont
Possible comparison: Not the famous artist called Simon Starling, this is an exciting and hard-working small defender from WA. Starling also has some athletic ability and could become a player a bit like Graham Johncock or Andrew Raines.
Why: The Kangaroos might have a spot for a small defender, Urch and Whyman are two smaller players that were recently delisted.
Worth a reach: Adam Iacobucci, the Kangaroos need to find a bit more midfield depth and Iacobucci would be a player who could help them next season.
Hope they slide: Joseph Daye, the Kangaroos do need a bit more help in the back line and Daye is a versatile player who could fill several needs.
Selected at pick 80 in the 2006 AFL draft:
James Thomson (West Coast, tall forward)
