List Mgmt. SPP

[Next Gen Rookie]

Previously-listed AFL players who have spent a season or greater away from an AFL list no longer need to be selected through the draft to find an AFL lifeline.

These players can now sign with a club of their choice during the pre-season supplemental selection period (SPP) between December 1 and March 15.

South Adelaide confirm that Keegan Brooksby will take a spot via this process. (Edit: an AFL spot, not an AFC spot)

Corey Wagner & Mav Weller apparently too, and it's how Shane Mumford will re-join GWS. Zac Clarke to Bombres.

I thought clubs had to have an injury to do this, but a free rookie spot seems a way in too.

Keegan wouldn't be a bad backup selection for us.

Yes, I've used the title to trigger Power fans

Hands up if you were expecting a thread on Sam Powell-Pepperspray

I feel Powell-Pingers would be more accurate.

Sly Paws Pepper ?

I read the K Brooksby article on the South site and thought we may have shown interest - stays in Adelaide very little risk for a back up ruck.

Mmmm...... bacon

 

[Elite Crow]

Am I missing something but where does it say we are the club?

It doesn't but don't we have to upgrade the as yet uncontracted Hunter if we want to retain him? Brooksby is eligible to be rookied?

 

[Squiba]

He's been delisted

 

[Houston]

I don't quite understand. Is it confirmed that a club has committed to him or is he just nominating for the SPP in hopes that someone will pick him up?

 

[spenze]

So for those with an AFL rule difficulty, does this mean we can take him or does this mean he doesn't want to be on an AFL list?

And isn't Corey Wagner like a NZ cricket allrounderf?

Can't he go into the rookie draft and we grab him from there? I thought that to keep without risk we'd need to upgrade him but we're not precluded from rookieing him if he's nommed in the draft. Vader will know.

The Panthers press release reads like he's been offered a rookie spot by an AFL club.

Isn't the new rule they have to be 12 months out of the AFL system?

Yeah, you can rookie him if you cast him into the draft, he lasts until your first rookie pick and then you pick him. Not entirely sure why we would though, would have thought the idea of a ruck in the rookie draft was to bring in an up and coming ruck who we can develop, not a guy who will be 26 when we start training next year

Tiser reporting Keegan off to West Coast.
Weller to Richmond

Wagner I dunno.

He'd nominated for the draft, and then withdrew his nomination once someone showed interest (reportedly Eagles). Okay journos are saying it's all happened in the last 24 hours (ie not Rooch/Manure)

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

How is Supplemental Selection Period S.P.P.?

 

[crows dude]

It doesn't but don't we have to upgrade the as yet uncontracted Hunter if we want to retain him? Brooksby is eligible to be rookied?

No we delisted Hunter and said we would re-rookie him if available

Neil Wagner, fast bowler.

 

[Deaneus!]

Richard Wagner, composer

Neil Wagner, fast bowler.

He has scored 37 in a test match, that puts him into all rounder territory for the Kiwis

I'd be careful potting the NZ cricket team at the moment, they've just managed to win a test in the UAE after not playing one for 7 months.

He'd be opening for Australia

Brooksby signing with the Eagles.
