The Cats have selected Gryan Miers from the Geelong Falcons with their final pick in the 2017 draft.

Miers, 18, is a 178cm, 77kg forward.

A livewire small forward, Miers has elite game sense and smarts around goals.

A prolific ball-winner, he also provides strong defensive pressure inside 50.

Miers put up some great performances for Vic Country in the NAB AFL U18 Championships but it was his TAC Cup Grand Final performance that boosted his draft prospects.

Miers kicked seven goals in the Falcons' Grand Final win and finished the TAC Cup season with 50 goals overall, making him one of the most prolific small forwards available.
