The No.14 pick is Jonty Faull
Jonty Faull the latest youngster to join Richmond as their fourth selection.
“I had a bit of a feeling [about getting to Richmond] but it was such an open draft that I didn’t have a clue,” Faull said.
The No.13 pick is Isaac Kako
Essendon match that bid from Richmond and get their man. Isaac Kako is officially an Essendon player.
Kako is best mates with last year’s Essendon top pick Nate Caddy and the pair shared a hug after Kako was selected. “It was real special supporting him last year and I’m happy he is here supporting me this year,” Kako said. “We are a real dynamic duo,” Kako said of him and Caddy who were also schoolmates at Parade College. But he admitted coach Brad Scott could end that sort of talk – “yeah I reckon he will”.
Bid pending on Isaac Kako
