Thanks Vital.Hope this helps
The process of finding NGA players are AFL clubs host training days within their respected area to scout for talent. That talent is then put into an under x age team and play in carnivals across Victoria. We tend to do the V/Line Cup tournaments.
We then placed on an internal list to help track their developments and inform our aligned TAC Teams (Its not official but every club does it for F/S) to give them games and play in x y z spot.
Prime example, Rebels are playing Cooper-Craig as a forward more often even though he's an elite ball winner for Rebels
Once they become 17 years old and playing TAC, we nominate them at the start of the season to inform AFL, so last year Richmond nominated 9 players but only took one player. They did this to ensure one of their talents is secure incase they have a breakout season.
Come a week or two before the draft, AFL clubs have to officially nominate them for the draft which if they are not drafted become Cat B Rookies. So they need to be upgraded to Normal Rookie to play AFL. Prime Example was Buku went undrafted and was taken as a CAT B but due to an open CAT A rookie spot, we automatically upgraded him.
Clubs get a 20% discount on F/S and NGA players so banking draft picks becomes important.
Not really, if Jamarra was in this years draft, our three third round picks would be enough points to match a first round bid. All comes down to when he is bidded on.
He is eligible for next year's draft alongside 28 other players we have in our system atm. Though that list will be cut down later this year
Hope that all makes sense
Jamarra Ugle-Hagan
R10: 5 Goals, 15 Disposals, 7 Marks
R12: 3 Goals, 10 Disposals, 3 Marks
Next year... fairly high you'd thinkWhat is the likelihood of Jamarra being nominated in the first round next year? Or, is it the year after???
Next year... fairly high you'd think
Hes pretty quick, nit elite standard but has high endurance for aflAnyone seen Cooper Craig-Peters play? How’s his speed? Looks like he’s being groomed for that pressure small forward spot, registers a few tackles but isn’t really hitting the scoreboard?

Another 4.1 for Jamarra Ugle-Hagan today
All signs point to yes but i dont work for the aflAre we certain to get this kid mate?
50-RookieSo where do you think CCP is projected to go?
Might be going a bit early here but I reckon Jamarra could be better then Buddy - potential GOAT in my opinion
CorrectIs that the 196cm, 90+ kg monster NGA kid we have? 16 years old?
Im 100% for S.A and W.A gaining more access to aboriginal talentNGA rules have been changed. SA and WA teams will get priority access to indigenous talent from their respective states (zones split between each team) that are bid on after Pick 40. Won't come into effect until 2020.
This is fantastic news for us, since it indicates that not only is the AFL only going to bring about change with a years notice, but also that no other changes are likely to occur for the 2020 draft. This means Ugle-Hagan should almost certainly be ours next year!
It is completely fair, and honestly a disgrace that those teams had areas excluded in the first place. Obviously Eagles don't exactly need more help with securing all these gun indigenous players, but it's also not exactly fair that everyone else gets this random leg up in the draft while they don't.Im 100% for S.A and W.A gaining more access to aboriginal talent
They are the benchmark for how programs should be run
Any details or videos of this kid? What are the early predictions for his developement/draftability?Correct
