Why does it matter so much to you, if the ball goes where he wants it to and from the games of his I've watched that's certainly the case, how it's delivered means nought if it hits the mark.

Because the pressure goes up in AFL level, so much more. Which means less time to dispose of the ball. much less time. Which means that what he's getting away with at under18 level I don't see him getting away with at the next level.

It doesn't affect me at all as I'd be surprised the dees picked him up
 
I’ll chuck this in here as a general open space. Rookie Me Central are chatting with Nick Daicos, Sam Darcy and Campbell Chesser tomorrow.

If anyone has any questions for them, let me know. Darcy will be filmed in the morning, Daicos and Chesser mid-arvo.

To either or all: What skill do they think will be the most challenging when transitioning to AFL level?

We have 2 interception defenders in Andrews and Adams already on the list Van Rooyen is more that possession tall defender that we don’t have

That's a very funny comment Van Rooyen is definitely a interceptor when he plays half back.
Leaves his man all the time to go for marks I dont know who you have been watching

One for PM and any of the draft watchers lurking...who's going to be the surprise undrafted player this year? I'll go big and say Jack Williams and Matty Roberts. And the early surprise? Alastair Lord will be one of the first 5 picks on night two.

I have to agree on Roberts and Williams, although Williams is probably less likely to miss out just on being a well performed KPP in the Academy. Josh Browne is another that may not be a surprise to those that have been watching him through the year, but to people that love their stat's they'd be shocked to see him miss.
Early surprise, Caminiti is one I have a sneaky feeling someone in the early 30s or late 20s may take a punt on, and Sheldrick I think will go 15-25, not a massive bolt though

thats a weird snipe at Josh Browne, i have watched him and i like him, i dont go off stats, so thats just weird bro.

Caminiti i know nothing about, so good luck to him

Williams is the Schache/Patton/Boyd of this draft in prior years he would go real high, i hear Freo are into him, but it would be interesting if he missed getting drafted.

Yeah I can see a team going ‘early’ on Caminiti. For the same reason I see Williams dropping. Teams love talls with perceived upside and athleticism.

Alastair Lord and Lewis Rayson are similar players, why do you think Lords stocks have risen while Raysons stocks have dropped?

Assessing a prospect is sniping? Better close the board down, bro
