This guy is from over here in the sanfl and he was touted to go early in the national draft but he suffered a serious injury which put clubs off. He is an aboriginal with terrific skill and is a bargain for a rookie pickup !
Add to this we got -
Ben Haynes from Richmond
Courtney Johns from East Fremantle
Toby McGrath from West Coast

I'm stoked that the club got Toby McGrath. Now we have two on the list.
I'm just spewing that we never got Ashley from Brisbane.:rolleyes:
Also, there was talk that Steven Daniher would be drafted as a rookie. Would the club leave him for next year and get him under father-son?
What happened to Luke Hawkins? Did he get picked up anywhere??

Adrian Wilson also appears to be a nice lad too.
Quality individual, unlike Angwin. You did well to avoid him.

Mabye that was the plan all along - show interest in Angwin, and eventually Carlton just have to beat Essendon to the punch.
Carlton needed another "problem" player - Fevola's been a bit quiet since the GF.:D

yeah. My cousin had to go and enrol Friday and set me up in a computer room while he enrolled. Quite good in there.

he first nominated last year, so he has another year to go....
we talked about this on BT actually... it's difficult because he's not really tall enough to attract attention as a positional forward... but he's very accurate and goes in hard.
he's a Bombers fan from way back, and he said ideally he'd like to stay at the club... hopefully he'll still slot into the VFL team now that we're at Bendigo
although he had some shoulder problems, so fingers crossed that doesn't play up again
