Well thats one way to put it.
Thing is once it gets into the plus 50's , its really just a small variation between what is a draft player and what is a Rookie. I don't think there should be any Rookie list but as there is ..it will get down to if Geelong rate him and if they think other clubs do. If no one calls his name , I think he can be directly listed as a Rookie under FS.. the rules change that often Im not sure.
I hope we don't pick him just because of the F/S link like we seem to have done in the past (read Adam Donohue, etc.).

AS a late ND pick or Rookie - I have no issue with it. And its not like they wont have looked at him before draft day. It just comes down to value.
If he's worth it they might pay up a bit but get that back with the FS discount... but I dont see him going that high...

Id rather pick them , give him a chance ..if it doesn't work out so be it. Its part of the cost that the whinges about FS do not get. Not every FS is Ablett.. and if you do not take the fringe ones you may missout on one that blooms late.. Picken at the Dogs , Stewart formally at GWS etc.
Has anyone seen much of the WA prospects this year? Tarir Bayok sounds like a good late pick:

Would Take Battle at 24 and Walker at 38.
Then would take Barlow in the Deleisted Free Agent Trade Period

#13 was Quinton Narkle - not a bad call Lana!
Would have been more impressive if I wrote down his name. For all we know it could just be a typo. I'd admit I smiled when I saw the highlights clip, it is like I have a mental link with Wells.

Just an early pointer to next year. Quite a few decent tall forwards available. I wonder whether Wells will look to trade up to a pick that could be used to take one?

I posted this on the Suns board at the end of June, interesting to note both Narkle and Parfitt are there
The 2 underagers I liked are bolded.Just watched Weds. games, still haven't seen an SA game but heard a few mentioned.
McCluggage is still 1st pick for me, can also play as the quality smaller forward needed. It's wide open from there, Bowes and Scheer are coming to GC (thought Williams was ok), others are FS prospects or likely to be going to their academy clubs so will try not to mention them, particularly in the wrong thread.
Then you have (alphabetically) Ainsworth, Atley, Battle, Brodie, Bunker, Clarke, Davies-Uniacke, Drew, Duman, English, S. Fisher, Z. Fisher, Florent, Galluci, Guelfi, Kerr, Lyons, McGrath, Maibaum, Maguire, Marshall, Narkle, O'Brien, Parfitt, Poholke, Rotham, Scrimshaw, SPP, SPS, Taranto, Venables, Waterman.
A few others that were good in spurts - Banfield, Hura, Korewha (pretty solid overall), Logue (undecided about at the mo), Strnadica.
Hayes & Worpel are 2 that Turbocat and I had discussed.
I think I mentioned a few of these kids a few pages ago..

A nice story may be if we can get Toby Woller somehow.. looks a promising type and because its so deep one may think there is a chance that slips. Worpel looks a ripper and Hayes would be ideal but I fear both will be gone by our pick

Need to remember also that we have the trio of F/S becoming available yes?
Brownless, Hocking, Scott and Mench?

2018 I think Daz... and as it stands most looks mids..but of course players can grow late. English was playing as a mid a couple of years ago.
And adding to that... if we took this year as an example , there would have to be a high chance that one or two them are Rookie prospects.
