THE 2009 talent pool at Eastern Ranges looks likely to be recognised with the Victorian TAC Cup club set to have up to four players selected in the top 30 of this year's NAB AFL Draft.

Andrew Moore and Jordan Gysberts appear certain top-25 selections, with Moore - brother of Richmond's Kelvin - a likely first-round pick.

Likened by some recruiters to Swan Ryan O'Keefe and Adelaide's Andy Otten, the young utility is certain to go high in the call with Essendon (No.10 selection), Adelaide (No.13), Sydney Swans (No.14), Western Bulldogs (No.15) and Geelong (No.17) all believed to be in the mix.

Gybserts may also go in the first round but is more likely to find himself selected somewhere in the 20s. He is regarded as one of the top midfielders in this year's pool and was previously an AIS-AFL Academy member.

Teammate Benjamin Griffiths looms as a 15 to 35 selection. He is still difficult to place considering injuries have interrupted his junior career, but many astute judges believe the tall forward remains an outstanding prospect.

Another Ranges player to have risen up the ranks is Ayden Kennedy, with strong testing at the NAB AFL Draft Camp elevating him to a likely second-round selection.

Some of the other Eastern players in the mix to be drafted include Matthew Scott, Josh Dyson, Luke McDonald and David Mirra.
