Top five pick contender Cooper Duff-Tytler has long been viewed as the leading tall prospect in the 2025 pool.

But for clubs that don't have a pick at the pointy end of the AFL Draft, there are several more ruck prospects who have shown promise in 2025.

Find out below who else is in contention and what sets them apart.

Has received very little talk but some view Krasnadamskis as the best ruck in the draft behind Cooper Duff-Tytler.

Has an element of mystery and, therefore, great scope given a high-level basketball background meant he didn't make his Coates Talent League debut until this year.

Athletic, aggressive and skilful, he's the new-aged tall and is viewed as a player who could go early on the second night of the AFL Draft.
