They’ve finally gone to raid the Amazonian Queensland Athletes
It's a good height for a midfielder (Marinoff and Jones 169cm, Kelly 171cm, going back a bit Gibson and Gum were 170cm) but a bit in-between as a forward. Mind you if speed is a weapon for her, she could be another player like Jones.
Believe them then. I'm going off rookieme which is probably not as reliable.
Tarlinton has played a lot of ruck as a junior apparently so looks like a McKinnon replacement to me. Doubtful she would’ve been in their thinking without McKinnon’s departure.
Well I wanted them to draft Boileau, a forward and tall coverage and they have, can’t complain.
Also again further confirms they do not rate the SANFLW or the next rung of SA juniors behind the Superstar talent.

Such a shame that this year SA had such a great crop of juniors, probably six players in the top ten in the country, and we only got one of them. Oh well, picking for needs is important.
Agreed that Tarlinton is a McKinnon replacement. Good coverage in the ruck and hey, who knows, she might work out up forward. Pairing her with Gould almost guarantees one of them will get an undersized defender.
So is that it? I think they said on the coverage we have one selection to go, but the website only lists three picks for us.
Jorja Borg ends up going quite late, pick 48.
Lily Tarlinton certainly has some interesting ‘tough stickers’ on the arms…
Yeah screamed like a ‘behind closed doors’ deal
Looking at Lily Tarlinton’s highlights they posted and they look pretty promising, looks very nimble for a tall, got some footy smarts and has pretty good coordination.
Was a train-on for the Lions and around their squad in the past so do wonder why no contract was ever offered, hopefully a pre-season with the team can bring her up to speed quickly as there’s a spot available straight away for her which is probably not the case for the other new draftees.

They're being rewarded for prioritising China over women's footy. The pricks deserve nothing.
Looking at Tamara Henry’s highlights the one thing that stands out more than anything is the strength through the hips, just powerful. I know they listed her standout athletic traits as the main highlights and some inconsistencies with ball in hand but looks like an out and out footballer who knows exactly what to do. Know it’s just a small sample of her best stuff but you can’t not get excited by it.
Rare praise indeed from me and probably too early to call without seeing her play a full game but high praise to whoever rang up Harper & recommended her as she looks a talent.

The AFLW draft is broken: List managers, recruiters have their say on how to fix payment tiers, drafting, player movement
From Newscorp Melbourne Writers Behind PaywallIt is time to blow up the state-based element of the AFLW draft and bin the wildly unpopular four-tier salary system offered to players.
The Herald Sun has canvassed the views of AFLW list managers, football bosses, coaches, agents and players and they headlined five significant transformations the industry is crying out for.
Almost on equal-footing with those two changes are allowing clubs to trade future picks to ease the rigidness of trade period.
The Victorian's want to make it a National Draft

Gotta feel for those kids
Port treat their AFLW team like they treat their SANFL team. With contempt. Poor girls talents are gonna be wasted at a club who doesn’t give a s**t now they’ve got their precinct funding.
Yes, had a nice bag of tricks in those highlights! Hopefully they will translate to AFLW level.
I guess Brisbane had a premiership-capable side already so simply didn't need her?
also were able to block Academy bids and they took all picks from Academy
Crows have basically already gone national this draft, it’s actually such short sightedness by the Vics considering this SA having multiple top 5 talents in the land is not going to last long and was more just an anomaly compared to most draft classes, it will quickly correct it self to be an all Victorian top 10 talent soon enough.
I know I said it last year about Young and Goody and it ended up happening but the Crows football department have got to get smarter with being more proactive to trade up the draft especially if Port finish below them again and they keep State based nominations and India Rasheed is just going to walk to them, as I’ve said before she’s shaping up as better than Young.
Depending on the next 12 months and where she plays for Centrals and the State team think Charlotte Riggs will be the next best talent then followed by Scholz, SA producing Key Position talents is just so rare they almost probably become much more of a commodity then what Window and Boileau were for the 2 SA clubs. The others listed are probably not near the 1st round at this stage.
From memory though they did need talls especially after Wardlaw departed & they went and got Jennifer Dunne from Ireland and then picked up Analea McKee from Geelong’s VFLW team as their late signing instead. So it’s not obvious going by the short 1 minute clip but they must’ve not rated something about her as a player especially given she was a local product.

I can't see us finishing below Port Adelaide for a while. Most of our core players (with the exception of Randall and Kelly) are all entering their prime
We should be raiding Port Adelaide where possible as they continue to flounder while we remain near the top. Pulling the Goodwins from them

But consistently inconsistent.
I don't understand the salary comments. The salaries are still on tiered payments, every club pays the exact same salary per tier, other than your top two players. Unless they're saying that Port's new draftees are immediately going on higher tiers than most of the rest of the playing group? (Which to be fair, is probably justified...)
