AFL Mock Draft 2007 - Pick 81
81. Port Adelaide - Jarrod Silvester
Tall Defender. 191cm, 89kg. Coburg VFL
Possible comparison: For his position as a tall defender, he has cat-like quickness, like Michael Pettigrew of the Power does.
Why: The Power had a lot of draft picks a year ago, and made the most of them, but they won't be picking this late in the real AFL draft. Silvester would provide help for their back line, and they will need to find another big defender as Wakelin has retired. Silvester would have been on the same Under 18 team as Zac Dawson, right now it is Silvester who is more advanced as a player, and it is possible that he gets his chance at AFL level.
Worth a reach: Clayton Hinkley, he had very good results in the draft testing and the Power always keep a close watch on those numbers.
Hope they slide: Austin Wonaeamirri, the Power are a great destination for small forwards.
Selected at pick 81 in the 2006 AFL draft:
PASS (Carlton)
