Based on his highlight reel, Wilkie is the one rookie priced defender I have confidence that he can average 70+ yet he'll be the def rookie that won't get early games. ****
Hes a gun and if Richo likes his job he should be playing round 1

They they have to at least move a bit :p
We still talking rookies? Or do you know my ex-missus?

But on topic.
Looking forward to Round one teams, and seeing that at least 3 rookie 'certainties' missed selection, and around 5 rookies that were named from out of nowhere.
Everyone scrambles madly to readjust their teams.

Good times

Best time of the year. I'll be at the pub, 4 pints in having to make big decisions before I go to the G

I have "SUPERCOACH THURSDAY" noted in big letters on our family calendar and they know I need to be left alone for a few hours to do what I have to do as soon as Round 1 teams are named. :thumbsu:

On that note, not too long to go now:

Buyer beware. North talked up LDU last year too.

Drafted with pick four in the 2017 NAB AFL Draft, Luke Davies-Uniacke has hit the ground running since he joined the club, and hasn’t put a foot wrong all pre-season.


Ofcourse walsh may be good but clubs are always talking up the players.

Think the misleading point last year was that LDU had a mature body .....and that disguised still an inexperienced 18 yo lad

Perhaps we judge players too much on physical attributes
