Rookie Draft

[StingaArmstrong]

What sort of players do we need and who are likely candidates. I'm pretty sure Luke Molan will be taken and we have Fisher and Carson on there already, that leaves three? spots.

I'd go for two smaller forwards/midielders - maybe herrington
and a ruckman to develop over two or three years.

Molan, a quick midfielder and a key forward would be ideal.

Herrington is too young and cannot be rookie listed. He has to play TAC Cup again next year.

Just Victorian kids cos I don't know about the others :-

Ben Cosgriff would be the one I'd target. If we want a really small player I'd go for Nathan Foley. A medium sized midfielder I would pick Adam Bentick.

Personally I would choose Aaron Rogers. He's a quality young ....

Thanks for the info footyman...didnt realise Herrington was so young.

How about we draft Aaron Davey preseason and then get Molan Rogers Bentick and Cosgriff on the rookie list.

I doubt guys like Cosgriff and Bentick will be around come the 2nd and 3rd rounds of the rookie draft.

Do you think Melb will take Molan at pick 3 in the rookie draft?

I certainly hope so. They apparently have promised him a spot so I'd say that he would go at three providing the dogs and carlton don't get hime first.

I've been doing some thinking and researching and i think that maybe Jacob Surjan, Dean Chester would be good as small forward/midfielders, Rowan Andrews for a developing ruckman and maybe someone delisted from another club like Dylan Smith.

Providing they're all available i would go for

Luke Molan
Adam Bentick
Rowan Andrews
Dylan Smith

a good mix with some experience, height, pace and strength.

Don't get me started.

Don't get me started.

Whats wrong with him...it was just a random pick seeing as i'm from tassie.

I think we need someone to develop over a couple of years for a ruck or key position.
