Second grab for ex-Lion Clouston

SCOTT Clouston insists he is better equipped to handle his second, and final, chance in the AFL.

The former Lions player has nominated for tomorrow night's national draft.

At 25, Clouston could be a ready-made senior player.

Clouston is only just realising his potential after discovering the code as an 18-year-old.

"I got there and then injury robbed me of another chance," the Redland forward said.

"I think I'm good enough and I just need an opportunity to prove it."

Clouston was rookie listed by the Lions in 2007 and played two matches for the Lions in 2008. Groin injuries ruined his 2009 season and he was de-listed.

But Clouston established himself as one of the NEAFL's dominant key forwards.

The 194cm target made the state side and in September finished only one vote shy of winning the Grogan Medal for the NEAFL's best and fairest.

Clouston has been interviewed by a handful of AFL clubs.

Melbourne are set to crush Jack Viney's hopes by overlooking his best mate, Ollie Wines, with pick No.4 after a last-minute reshuffle of Greater Western Sydney's top-three picks.

The Dees will choose South Australian Jimmy Toumpas, pushing Wines to the Bulldogs at pick No.5.

Melbourne had believed Toumpas was Giants-bound with their second pick.
