[Scorpus]

The other thread is filled with garbage, so here's a thread to welcome our first ever father son selection: Ben Jarman

Who?

Stoked!!! Welcome Jars!!!

 

[Brentmeister]

What pick do we have to use?

Welcome Ben.

I suspect that he is a bit like the RAT. When we drafted the rodent we said that he will take a while to develop. Many doubted The RAT early on but he has matured like a fine red. Ben has a bit of a Grange heritage .

good get as a rookie, has talent.

 

[Geoffa32]

I just hope now he can be allowed to develop without a media circus....

Also hope Rory Laird pulls him aside and talks to him about what it takes to turn that talent into an elite AFL footballer even though you are deemed too slow and shirt St draft age.....

Hopefully our last.. if we have to use our first because someone dummy bids knowing we've put out a tweet....

What pick do we have to use?

Our last rookie pick

 

[Cromulent]

Can we use a later round pick without risking someone else grabbing him, then grab someone else with our first round?

Pick 44.

No one else can get him. He was pre-selected by us as a Rookie. Our last pick is used for him, hence why the confirmation tweet from the club.

 

[hippyhippy]

best of luck to the kid, hope he can put the expectations aside and give it a real go.

 

[Cromulent]

Man if Scharenberg slides and we can grab Jars with a later pick, START THE CAR!

no bidding required in the rookie draft. as long they were pre-selected on Oct 31st.

Crows now have pick 13 and 30 in the rookie draft.

 

[PrideOf]

Welcome Ben.

Kudos to the club for not blinking.

And you media *sticks who used the word "snub"? The line for apologies starts over there, just behind Andrew Capel.

 

[moses]

Welcome aboard Ben. May you have a long and successful career at the Crows!

 

[Danger Zone]

It doesn't work like that, we can use our last pick.

Can I say, very well done to the AFC who knew exactly what they where doing.
Unlike a certain presenter on an AM drive home show who's overreaction about Ben not being a FS selection in the draft was totally embarrassing.

Awesome news

Welcome to the Crows Ben.

I hope we, the supporters, give Ben the time and space to develop the talent that he has.

Welcome Junior Jars.

Really pleased it has worked out well for both Jarman and the club. It gets the first Father-Son issue out the way, we didn't over pay for him and he gets a chance where he should. It also paves the way for the future picks like Edwards Jnr etc...

The club has played it really well.
