I don’t think we can pick (if we put someone on the LTI for the rest of the season) anyone in the U18s. Young guns are available to us.
We had two KPDs that many of us liked Schlensog? And an Italian? name for a guy with a bit of mongrel. How have they gone?
Is their a ruck or a KPD who is mature and doing well in any of the state leagues?
This is from The Sporting News:
“Which players could be selected in the 2022 mid-season draft?
Ollie Hanrahan (Werribee/midfielder): The Ex-Hawk has bounced back after the delisting from Waverley Park in an impressive start with Werribee in the VFL.
Despite the surprising call by Hawthorn's list managers to delist Hanrahan, the young midfielder has left recruiters wondering why, as his performances under Werribee coach Michael Barlow suggest he's definitely up to the task of an AFL-revival.
Averaging 25 touches and five tackles, the 23-year-old has responded to the unfavourable news and could be on the radar for multiple clubs.
Hanrahan is listed as a top-up player for Sydney, in the unlikely event he'll be called upon due to the ongoing COVID-19 impact and protocols players have to follow.
The lively forward managed to play 29 games across five years at the club, with 13 of those being in 2021.
Bailey Rogers (Claremont/midfielder): Bailey Rogers has come close to AFL selection, after training with Fremantle over the pre-season as a potential supplemental top-up player.
Although not receiving an AFL contract, Rogers, who was nominated for the National Draft (making him eligible), returns to the Claremont Tigers where he won a Sandover Medal in 2021.
The goal-kicking midfielder has started 2022 in brilliant fashion, averaging 2.5 goals a game from 24 touches.
Sam Fowler (Collingwood/forward): Collingwood VFL player Sam Fowler has put his hand up for an AFL opportunity given the unfortunate injuries to Brodie Grundy and Nathan Kreuger.
The tall forward has kicked 13 goals this season and looks poised to provide relief up forward for the senior side, given Kreuger's lengthy stint on the sidelines.
Jye Menzie (South Adelaide/small forward): The crafty forward from Tasmania has put his best foot forward since being overlooked in the AFL Draft in November.
Playing in the SANFL, the crafty forward has kicked 13 goals in five games and presents as a dangerous weapon up forward for South Adelaide.
Oliver Davis (South Adelaide/midfielder): Fellow Tasmanian and teammate of Menzie, Oliver Davis has made the switch to the SANFL impressively, putting his hat in the ring for an AFL selection come June 1.
The midfielder averages 24 touches and five clearances and could be in line for drafting”
From Zero Hanger:
“Over-aged NAB League trio Max Ramsden, Jed Rule and Hugo Hall-Kahan have looked to redeem themselves in the East Coast state competition in 2022 and could be of interest to AFL clubs.
Sandringham pair Ramsden and Hall-Kahan have been prolific for the Dragons, with Hall-Kahan among the bracket of players requiring an exemption after opting not to nominate for the 2021 National Draft.
Ramsden was overlooked for a selection and has since sparked strong form in the NAB League, averaging 14.5 disposals and 19 hit-outs per game while Hall-Kahan has booted 11 goals to start his 2022 campaign.
Rule has been a formidable option in defence for the Oakleigh Chargers at half-back, averaging 15.3 possessions, eight marks and 2.5 marks per game.”
Jye Menzie as a small maybe? But prefer a ruck or KPD maybe Ramsden or Rule.
