Draft camp Invitees

[Weaver]

you would think that those who are only attending a state screening would also have a very small chance or being drafted? not sure how things have gone in the past few drafts but would be interesting to know what chance, if any, these guys have.

Don't have figures to hand, but if there are 60 draft picks you would probably expext something like 40 Draft Camp / 10-15 Screening / 5-10 Other.

Rookie list is all over the place.

Inclined to agree but there is always the possibility of a smokey cropping up and that will be the case this year with Peterson and Mourish.

Andrew McCarrey - An interesting one I find. What do you think Lingsface / Yak.

It's a no from me.

Broadhurst has kicked 45 goals ( I think) for Subi, but would be lucky to get a gig. Maybe a rookie listing?

McCarrey has been looked at before but has attracted some interest this year by his strong performances at FF. I don't see much chance of him getting a crack at it but stranger things have happened maybe someone can see a short term stop gap role for him. Broadhurst is primarily a marking goal kicking FF and whilst he is good enough to do that role at WAFL level I have reservations about him at the higher level. Maybe a rookie chance.

Can we get some information on the not so well known players there, not just opponions on the players but some playing information such as hight possition etc.

A lot of those names tried out for the 18s. why were some of the others not invited to try out?

Liam Anthony is a half forward 1987 who played colts for East Freo last year and league and reserves this year. First half of the year was outstanding in a side that was usually badly beaten. Approx 189 and 90kg. Strong but athletic build. Excellent disposal. Ability to play HFF and HBF.

Venturini is a 1989 birth. 188 82 kg strong athletic who plays CHF for top of the table East Freo colts. Spends some time in midfield also. Aggressive, good tackler with a booming kick. Not surprised he got a screening and will put up good numbers there. Anticipated he would be a strong draft chance next year (almost a certainty if he progressed as expected) but someone has obviously spotted the talent and is ken to have a look. Too young to rookie list.

Next time you see an Essendon Recruiter/Spotter at a game be sure to ask them about Anthony.

For some reason the Bombers seemed to think his postal address was somewhere in Victoria. Sheeds must have been confused by Aliens again.

Rusling revisited.

Anyone have the full list yet?

Must be some more names known by now.
