FULL TEAM LISTS AND STRATEGIES:

JAY CLARK

Defence: Jed Adcock, Chris Yarran

Midfield: Matthew Boyd, Marc Murphy, Tom Rockliff

Ruck: Ben McEvoy

Forwards: Jarrad Waite, Jimmy Bartel

Bench: Jack Ziebell, Colin Sylvia, Matthew Suckling, Robbie Warnock

Strategy: You need a midfield captain with your first pick and a quality ruckman with your second.

Coach says: "Serious concerns about the other blokes letting Matty Boyd slip to third-round - steal of the night. Ralph and Edmund - easy beats."

MARK HAYES

Defence: Hamish Hartlett, Scott McMahon

Midfield: Matt Priddis, Luke Shuey, Shane Tuck

Ruck: Sam Jacobs

Forwards: Lance Franklin, Cyril Rioli

Bench: Dayne Zorko, Nathan Jones, Hamish McIntosh, Brent Harvey

Strategy: Find a top-flight player away from the midfield in the early rounds, and we snared Buddy Franklin and Sam Jacobs to accomplish that.

Coach says: "If we can keep the ball in the forward half we'll be deadly. But we need to trade for a better backman."

SAM EDMUND

Defence: Bryce Gibbs, Brian Lake

Midfield: Scott Pendlebury, Nick Dal Santo, Jarrad McVeigh

Ruck: Todd Goldstein

Forwards: Jordan Lewis, Greg Broughton

Bench: Lenny Hayes, Scott Thompson (North Melbourne), Kade Simpson, Shaun Grigg

Strategy: If your first round pick is No.3 or later take a gun ruckman and then devote each pick to different positions after that. Midfielders grow on trees – the others don't.

Coach says: "Now I know what recruiters mean when they dribble out: 'We can't believe he was still there…' But Windley picking a one-legged Daisy had to be the highlight."

SAM LANDSBERGER

Defence: Heath Shaw, Pearce Hanley

Midfield: Dane Swan, Kieran Jack, Rory Sloane

Ruck: Paddy Ryder

Forwards: Dustin Martin, Sharrod Wellingham

Bench: Mitch Robinson, Sean Dempster

Strategy: Grab a gun ruckman inside the first two rounds as stocks are low. Load up on dual-position players for flexibility and if you're real hard core don't draft too many blokes with byes in the same round - unlike I did.

Coach says: "We tracked Kieran Jack closely last year and couldn't believe he slipped to us at No. 46. He'll add character to our group. With Swanny, Heater, Dusty and Robbo onboard we're counting down the sleeps to Mad Monday - after a premiership, of course."

MATT WINDLEY

Defence: Brendon Goddard, Beau Waters

Midfield: Chris Judd, Steele Sidebottom, Andrew Carrazzo

Ruck: Dean Cox

Forwards: Luke Breust, Luke Dahlhaus

Bench: Dale Thomas, Michael Barlow, Matt DeBoer, Jaeger O'Meara

Strategy: The ruck stocks are thin, so I was always going to take one of them first - luckily Dean Cox fell in to my lap (no pun intended). Defenders were always going to be next and scoring the No.1 (Brendon Goddard) and No.3 (Beau Waters) ranked defenders was a nice surprise. Plenty of midfielders around to do the job.

Coach says: "First three picks went smoothly, selecting Dale Thomas with pick No.4 was a bit of a setback given he's still shuffling in a moon boot. They laughed at me then - and are still laughing now - but I've got faith in Daisy. It's a marathon, not a sprint.''

GLENN MCFARLANE

Defence: Grant Birchall, Harry Taylor

Midfield: Dayne Beams, Ryan Griffen, James Kelly

Ruck: Jarryd Roughead

Forwards: Paul Chapman, David Hale

Bench: Brad Ebert, Luke Hodge, Jarryd Blair, Daniel Rich

Strategy: Don't leave it too late to pick up a quality ruckman. Ideally, go midfielder, ruckman, defender as your first three picks.

Coach says: "Did the other blokes forget about Ryan Griffen? Can't believe I got him in the third round. No research from some of you boys!"

GILBERT GARDINER:

Defence: Paul Duffield, Jarrod Harbrow

Midfield: Gary Ablett, Brad Sewell, Brock McLean

Ruck: Matthew Kreuzer

Forwards: Mark LeCras, Drew Petrie

Bench: Mitch Clark, Shaun Atley, Clinton Young, Jason Porplyzia

Strategy: The No.1 pick was a no-brainer. From there, it was about selecting a mix of contributors (refer: Sewell, Petrie and McLean) and players with upside (refer: Atley, Harbrow and LeCras).

Coach says: "They say games are won and lost in the middle. The end."

SHANE CRAWFORD:

Defence: Dyson Heppell, Troy Chaplin

Midfield: Jobe Watson, David Mundy, Harley Bennell

Ruck: Jon Giles:

Forwards: Travis Cloke, Stewie Crameri

Bench: Jeremy Howe, Mike Pyke, Sam Mitchell, Scott Selwood

AL PATON

Defence: Corey Enright, Shaun Burgoyne

Midfield: Jack Redden, Trent Cotchin, Brett Deledio

Ruck: Shane Mumford

Forwards: Matthew Pavlich, Adam Goodes

Bench: Leigh Montagna, Matthew Wright, Jack Grimes, Michael Johnson

Strategy:  I couldn't knock back Cotchin with pick four in the draft but it meant there were few rucks to choose from when my next choice came around. The midfield is where most points are scored and I'm hoping to get a big jump on my rivals there each week. Having said that, if Scotty (Gullan) is interested in offering Nic Nat for one of my mids, I'm willing to listen.

Coach says: "Rapt to get the one-two Tiger punch in the midfield, Deledio was a steal in the fourth round. Little nervous about ruck and forward divisions, hopefully the injury gods smile on me."

JON RALPH

Defence: Andrew Mackie, Jack Watts

Midfield: Patrick Dangerfield, Andrew Walker, Brent Stanton

Rucks: Aaron Sandilands

Forwards: Taylor Walker, Jack Riewoldt

Bench: David Zaharakis, Nathan Fyfe, David Swallow, Shannon Hurn

Strategy: Just because you only have 12 players, you still have to pick those with improvement left. Dual position players are a must.

Coach says: I am already in strife given my first pick Aaron Sandilands is out for 8 weeks. The ruck cupboard is bare. It's backs to the wall already.

SCOTT GULLAN

Defence: Brent Reilly, Sam Fisher

Midfield: Scott Thompson, Joel Selwood, Andrew Swallow

Ruck: Tom Bellchambers, Nic Naitanui

Forwards: Michael Hurley, Steve Johnson

Bench: Robert Murphy, Travis Boak, Daniel Hannebery

Strategy: Don't lose sleep about the ruck. With Sandi injured and you can't land Cox, then sit on your hands and get one late in the draft.

Coach says: There isn't a better, or more balanced, midfield than what I have unleashed – J Selwood, S Thompson and A Swallow. That is called SuperCoach GOLD.

MARK ROBINSON

Defence: Danyle Pearce, Josh Gibson

Midfield: Stephen Hill, Josh P Kennedy, Ryan O'Keefe

Ruck: Ivan Maric

Forwards: Tom Hawkins, Jonathan Brown

Bench: Heath Scotland, Andrew Gaff, Callan Ward, Nick Riewoldt

Strategy: Load up on mids, and hard-ball getters. Outside runners get shut down...

Coach says: That said, you need runners and Danyle Pearce is my smokie because Ross Lyon will get him involved...
