[jonesy86]

who is L. Casey-Leigh????

 

[Vinnie Vegas]

I'm slightly surprised to see Andrew Renton go totally undrafted - I guess it just shows how important athleticism is to all clubs nowadays.

boy can run though can't he? won the 3k trial if I remember?

I believe you're thinking of Tom Rischbieth - A dud tall delisted by Port Adelaide.

54 C Stokes Hawthorn Darwin

is he related to geelongs matty?

Either a brother or cousin, IIRC.

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

How come Eagles other 2 selections havnt come up yet

We named Cousins as a mature-aged rookie and the place has gone nuts

[Embers]

[SS_Fury]

[sante]

[SS_Fury]

[Embers]

No, but I think we will. The money needs to be spent on something

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

B. Wilkes and R Davis

 

[grimlock]

Davis is your NSW scholarship holder. Was also going to be picked.

 

[Lynch takes a mark]

how the hell can Beau Wilkes be taken in the rookie draft, this would be his 4th year and 3rd time drafted.

has there been a rule change ?

Re: Obst

Excellent. What type of player is he?

think firrito without as much natural ability.
athletic, tall, can take a contested grab but tends to float in and out of the game.
key word is potential here.

 

[Embers]

We win again. Woot

I was thinking the same thing. At this rate he'll still be on our rookie list when he's 30

Yeh hes allowed one more year.

 

[Exeter]

Sullivan eh?

Isn't he the next Dean Cox?

 

[ALLDAY18]

Why did Arrowsmith go so late?? Is it a pace problem?

I wouldn't call Firrito with a lot of natural ability. Well basically he showed **** all in the first year, got delisted by us. Then pops up and plays quite a few nice games this year in the SANFL seniors. Does have ability and word is that he is pissed off with us after being dumped after only a year. The club must've been very unhappy with him as its very rare to see a club dump a player after 1 year only (only Lucy I can remember). He could become a player though.

sweet good mate of Beau's seen him over the break and he could go around 1 more time as a rookie, 1 of clarmonts best in GF although would not of been hard in backline.

Arrowsmith is taller then 6ft it seems. Surely hes the next Dean Cox?

None of that is relevant - He's still only 21 years old.

All that the rookie draft requires is that a player is 22 or younger - If that's the case, then you're eligible.
