Twenty Questions The 2006 AFL Draft Will Answer

Who is picked second?

Will Troy Makepeace get another chance in this draft?

Will the Brown brothers be on the same AFL team?

Who will be the draft day slider?

Will Richmond get the player at pick 13 that they would have taken at number 8?

Who will be the first Queensland player taken?

Will the Eagles draft Jarryd Morton?

Who will be the second ruckman taken?

Will Terry Wallace draft a tall player?

Which player will be considered the biggest reach?

Will Carlton still draft one of their possible father/son prospects late in the draft?


Who will be the first "recycled" player, as in a player just delisted, taken by a new club?

Will Chris Dawes find a club that is able to wait for him to recover?

Will a Selwood be based in yet another state next season?

Do Collingwood draft the same type of player at both 8 and 10?

Are more players drafted from the Northern Territory than are drafted out of New South Wales?

Does Riewoldt play with Riewoldt and will Krakouer play beside Krakouer next season?

Is 100 VFL goals enough to get Aaron Edwards back on a list in the AFL?

Will the size and potential of Todd Goldstein make him a much earlier pick than expected?

Can Simon Hogan turn draft camp domination into being selected on draft day?


All AFL drafts present teams with many options, and fans with many questions. Listed above are just a small number of things to watch on draft day. In the next few days some guesses to these questions, and any others you submit via the comments, will be posted on the site.

Carlton have already ruled out taking one of the father-son prospects

Carlton said they wouldn't use their third round pick for a father/son selection.

This doesn't stop them drafting one or both of the players with a later round pick.

Williams or Johnston may be drafted in the 4th or 5th round.

Sam Sheldon is also staying with Oakleigh for another season and isn't in this draft.

Honestly still dont see it happening, with such a deep draft I think they will go with someone else.

Hawthorn once let Shane Tuck go into the draft and while they didn't think he was worth it at the time for him to be a father/son pick they also missed out later in the draft. If they look back and remember they drafted Harry Miller, Zac Dawson and Matthew Ball, and that Shane Tuck went at pick 73 to Richmond, it was not a good decision to let the son of a club legend get away.

Tomi Johnston and Jake Williams would provide Carlton with some much-needed good publicity. If either player makes it to AFL level it will be a story of success against the odds. But more importantly both players do have the ability to play AFL, and have skills that could get them drafted by someone even if Carlton pass.

If Carlton get to pick 67, or even pick 83, and they pass on a son of one of their premiership heroes then it will be hard for them to explain that to their fans. Pick 35 was too early a pick to use on one of them, but no reason for them to not take one or both of the players late in the national draft.

Aaron Edwards deserves another chance afterall he won the Liston Trophy and kicked 100 goals this year just look at Sam Mitchall he won th Liston Trophy in his first year and he's just won Hawthorns B'n'F and he's just 23 and he's a champion now so Edwards could be too
