Indeed, my hope is that they take Matthew Johnson with our first pick (he is the classy mid we need/ good inside & out ) & Angus Sheldrick is still on the board for our 2nd pick - the ideal inside bull for us.
Here is his draft profile :-
Angus Sheldrick
POSITION: Inside Midfielder SNAPSHOT: "A strong inside bull who bustles through congestion, and provides consistent ball winning output through sheer will and determination." Over a two-year period where so many draft prospects have lacked the opportunity, some have taken each of theirs remarkably well. One such AFL hopeful is Angus Sheldrick, who has played himself into top 30 contention on the back of a remarkably consistent body of work. The Claremont product and Christ Church Grammar skipper had an early finish to his 2020 campaign, but has shown marked resilience and a strong rate of development in 2021 through his desire to work and improve. He is a player who hardly has a bad outing and can be turned to in the trenches, producing game-winning efforts by making the best of what he has. From a fringe state Under 19s squad member to squad barometer, Sheldrick's top-age season has proven a memorable one. STRENGTHS: + Contested ball + Strength + Work rate + Toughness + Consistency + Scoreboard impact IMPROVEMENTS: - Kick consistency - Athleticism Sheldrick is the type of player who loves to compete. While standing at a modest 179cm, his 88kg frame and sheer hunger for the contest make for imposing traits. As is particularly evident against his peers, the 17-year-old is strongly built and proves dominant at stoppages, burrowing in before forcing a way out with his pumping legs and upper-body braun. Much of his work is done by force, putting his side on the front foot in whatever way possible.
