It's once again the time of year in which we pin our hopes for happiness on some kids with potential.
As the draft is likely to yield far more questions that answers for the standard footy fan, we here at Zero Hanger have attempted to alleviate some of the ambiguity for you.
Here is a comprehensive list of future stars we feel each club should - if available - be taking with their first pick in the draft
Sydney (Pick 3)
Braeden Campbell
Sydney are set to repeat history with the third pick of the draft by selecting a talented academy player.
In this instance, it is another baby-faced blonde by the name of Braeden Campbell.
With a blistering turn of pace, deadly line breaking ability, a dead eyed left boot and the ability to play both inside, outside and forward of the ball, Campbell has all the ingredients to thrive at the level.
The fearless Allies midfielder proved this with his three goals and 14 disposals that saw him named best on ground in last season's NAB All Stars โFutures' game.
As a known quantity to John Longmire, the potential for Campbell to debut early in the year is sure to shorten his Rising Star odds.
