With the AFL Draft just over a week away, AFL teams - and their fans - will have a firm idea of which prospects they want to come away from the count with.

Each club has at least one glaring list need they may address at the draft, while the sides with picks towards the top of the order will be assessing the best prospect available when they're on the clock.

Whether it be through a prospect's name sliding down on draft night, or a club packaging picks to move up the order, there's likely a standout name for every club that would prove to be a dream addition to their list.

Considering each club's list needs and opening selection at the AFL Draft, here's who we see as every club's dream prospect to pick.

Lachy Dovaston

An electrifying small forward, Dovaston is exactly what the Blues would be after at the draft.

Their opening pick sits at ninth overall, and will likely either be used to match a bid for Harry Dean or traded to acquire points or future picks, or both.

They also have Pick 11, which could be used similarly, with the combination of the two first-round selections potentially giving Carlton the capital to trade back into the first round after the Dean bid is matched.

That's when the Blues could strike for Dovaston, who sits in the 10-20 range of the draft.
