Will look good in a GWS jumper.

Will look good in a GWS jumper.

Snoop biased I know but he would look a lot better in Geelong or a Pie or a Blue jumper. Those new jumpers do nothing for me. GC look like a training top , i'd like to guess how long it will be before it gets a restyle

That aside , do we see him going in the 1,2,3,4,5 range which puts in him at one of the clubs?

Look like he has everything you would want in a tall. What his personality like. Is he a natural leader?

So why did they not take him as a 17 Year Old as I was told that they where strongly Considering it

Have it on good authority that he is heading to the GWS.

Rumors aroused that they (GWS) wanted to see him continuing to develop in the elite TAC cup competition rather than the fledgiling NEAFL competition.

Have they already taken their full allocation of 17yos yet? If so they must be pretty set on him as a top 5 pick if your mail is right.

Fair Enough I guess and I guess if he gets Injured or Another Kid goes past him they can bypass him

dont get me wrong he would make a great Maggie recruit but they have their sights set on him at this stage. Terrific kid, will grow to be a fine player and person. dont get to excited about him heading to the Cattery.

Ps I really like the jumper but I take your point - its polarised people.

what was this kid like last year? Im surprised that considering the hype a team didn't draft him with a late pick and let him join the club after this season...much like what the crows did with dangerfield

 

[Toadvine]

I'm certain that he was not eligible for last years draft so I'm not sure what you're talking about?

In the past you could take those born early the next year, but since 2009 the rules changed. So 1993 born players are eligable from this year.

Was introduced because heaps of those kids drafted earlier were still in school like Dangerfield in season 1. Was probably a change for the better.
