Rookie Draft

[linnaeus]

i know it is a bit pointless talking about rookie draft because we have little idea about who will be there. We have 4 rookie spots available. Club has said we will rookie Delaney if still there. I would support giving a rookie spot to Nahas. Until injured I thought he was lively and gave value to the team. That would leave us 2 spots to unearth the new sugar!

I hope we go massively speculative. I don't want any more Tim McGeniss, Max Warren, Marcus White types.

Yeah I want guys that can jump on peoples heads and run like the wind with amazing skills

yep big risk big reward with these four picks

 

[Harvey Manfrenjensenden]

Nahas Was Lively but erratic, turned the ball over way to much. He served his purpose this year. KPD if we don't pick one up in the draft. What about Wayland Manson?

 

[Deadeyeroo]

If Waylan cant cope with what the show had to offer how is he going to go in a preseason. Not for me even I like the guy and he has obvious football ability.

 

[Higgins2Waite]

Wayland hahahaha no chance in hell. He always quit before he begun. That show should be burnt to the ground

 

[Harvey Manfrenjensenden]

Never saw the show, just heard he had talent

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Cam Delaney
one mature age player who could be ready to go from the outset

2 freakishly talented players who are rough around the edges.

 

[XU1-ROO]

For a rookie.Jermaine Miller - Lewis. Looks to have some talent.

 

[Deadeyeroo]

I'm surprised we didnt tip our foot into Johann Wagner although he was probably always going to Port.

A part of me wants Azza Edwards back, though I know it's not feasible.

Why?

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Why?

Why back or why not feasible?

 

[marklovesbeer]

Back.
I loved the guy but he would not get a look in. It would be sad.

 

[Luke72]

I hope we get Marvin Banyam (?) on as an international rookie to keep the Beast company.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Back.

Mainly for that reason.

Loved the guy, hated to see him go.

Know it wouldn't work out to draft him back.

 

[hellas_johnny]

Rumours we might be looking at lachie fairley as a rookie

Lol- we have been hiding him in werribee 3rds

How about Panos (formerly at the Dogs) as a mature aged player. I think he might be worth a look, although I dont know if he'll make it beyond the rookie spot!

 

[Higgins2Waite]

Oleg Markov if he slips into the rookie draft. Good combine with lots of upside.

has a lot of upside! haven't seen a lot of him though. biggest thing that stands out with him is his decision making. Naturally smart footballer!

Hope ur right about Nahas being given a rookie spot! He gave everything and did what he was suppose to do.... Surprised most of us i think

Bit of talk floating around that Port had been in his ear for a number of weeks. The show may be cancelled due to behind the scenes unfairness.
