Whilst most clubs draft kids, teach & educate them before promoting them into the game why not use the GRAND FINAL as a future guide. Just buy ready made players & save the expense & time. Hawks had Burgoyne (exPort), Gibson (exNth, Gunston (exAde), Hale (exNth), Lake (ex Dogs), McEvoy (exStK), Spangher (exVarious). Swans had Franklin (exHaw), Kennedy (exHaw), Richards (exEss), Shaw (exColl), Tippett (exAde). This is now advantaged by Free Agency. Poorer clubs can recruit first & put in the ground work. All you need is a MONEY TREE.
