Review 2022 AFL Draft - Pre-season and Rookie drafts @ 3pm

[Lore]

Same spreadsheet as before, added a new tab for the rookie draft.

 

[BIGHAWK23]

Why wouldn't you though. Doubt there would be a coach in the league or at any level for that matter that wouldn't do this.

That will bring Shiels and Howe in?

All coaches except for Clarko wouldn't bring these players in

 

[mattyc75]

I was just commenting on our club board. That the rookie drafts gets more boring each year. It has become a Recycled Player or Pass Draft.

Don't know why clubs bother resigning someone that they have cut, or who has been cut by another team. Very rarely does a recycled player bounce back into a best 22 regular, they were cut for a reason. I would personally prefer to take a shot at and put effort into a kid with upside.

Actually, it is more of a salary / list spot dump these days. Clubs use it for tactical reasons.

The eagles cut winder and trew and then redrafted them.they quite possibly had contracts for next season and didnt want to pay them out like they did langdon.
Shame there was a few good young options available

Shiels and Howe just screams Clarko getting some of his favorites on another list. Already exerting a fair bit of control not 1 month into the job...

One thing I know about players like Shiels, Howe and Turner is that they are all very hard workers. I think he's trying to get standards up at the joint because it's common knowledge amongst North fans that it's been down since we brought in Brad Scott.

 

[gustaaf]

Has Todd been hanging out at Macca's the last few years, he might need an elastic Norf polo shirt if he plans to keep expanding.

He's just been grazing in a very lush paddock since he last actively chased the footy.

I think Shiels still has plenty to offer and his experience coming from a winning culture will be invaluable in North's AFL team where I expect he will be playing most of his footy. I think he is a great pick up and I trust Clarko's judgement in that regard. It is all about setting standards which were missing under the out of his depth Noble.

Shiels maybe

Howe is another Greenwood, with less athletiscm

Sorry I mean try to attract players you've coached before.

and Ed Curnow.

Hopefully these youngsters can forge a few games and have a career at senior level.

 

[RedWhite&Blue]

Rookie draft should be interesting, a few decent prospects didn't get drafted yeasterday.

Luke Teal really stiff.
Ethan Phillips surely gets rookied
Cleaver a rookie chance?
Gillbee is a 190cm wing/utility who can run IIRC
Leary as a rookie small forward may appeal to some clubs

Is Gilbee any relation?

 

[Mofra]

No. Different spelling as well (extra 'L')

Reminds me of when Pagan brought in ol reliable Diggers Morrell from North to Carlton

Good luck to those youngsters Phil Davis, Ryan Lester, Nakia Cockatoo, Connor Blakely, Paul Seedsman and Ed Curnow.

It is an absolute rort and this latest draft showed that clubs will just extract the p!$$ as much as they want with no repercussions

I agree. Time for the AFL to either rename the rookie list/draft or to provide clear definition what a rookie is and who can enter that draft.

 

[royboy2]

Do clubs still pay them a comparable wage or is it back to rookie base salary?

 

[TradeDraft]

No club participating in PSD today according to Twomey.

PSD is a Waste of Time
