Collingwoods Rookies.

Thinking of other clubs, and how their rookies have faired, i believe we have done prettyw ell out of the rookie situation. in actual fact, we pick up betetr players in the rookie draft than we do in the national draft when the ebst talent is up for grabs!

Tarkyn lockyer Nick Maxwell, Ben Davies, harry Obrien,,,, i think we've done reasonablyw ell in that area compared to other clubs.

ur thoughts?

agreed on maxy and tarks, but dont jump the gun on the other two! im not saying they wont be good, but i think it is to early to tell if they will actually carve out a career at the pies! potential is there tho, i love bens courage and speed and i think that alone could get him over the line!

yeah johnno, those guys have done o.k. i think we could keep davies and harry on the list, they do have go!

and put it in context to. Maxwell and Davies, togtehor, have played more games than shackleton, mullins, nixon, davidson and morrison,, and these were our Natioanl Draft selections. i believe:
Shackelton: Pick 32
Nixon: Pick 15
Morrison: Pick 17
Davidson: Pick 20 something???
Mullins: Pick 20 Something??? also

Nixon was in the Davis trade pick 19 I think.
Davidson pick 27
Mullins was PSD

Fanning was/is a Rookie

Prior to the Rookie list Rupe came off our Sup list

 

[Vinnie Vegas]

Nixon was in the Davis trade pick 19 I think.

Pick #21 it was...

I do like both Harry and Davies though, they've both got ability.

 

[Johnson#26]

We have done very well indeed. Davies, IMO, will end up a gun wingman, while O'Brien has shown plenty of promise.

Maxwell, once his body builds up, will replace Clement, while Tarks has been good value.
