ESSENDON rising star Bachar Houli understands exactly what the Western Jets' draft hopeful's are going through in the lead-up to tomorrow's AFL national draft.
Houli, 21, was recruited by the Bombers in the 2006 draft after starring for the Jets and describes it as a "very exciting" time in a young players career.
"It's everyone's dream to play at the highest level so those guys will definitely be excited about it all," he said.
"It can be a bit nerve-racking especially seeing as they won't know where they will end up, but I'd say they'll be more excited than nervous. I sat with 50-60 cousins when my name was called out and it was a fantastic moment for me."
