Prediction Who will debut in 2017?

[rp84]

Sam Petrevski-Seton: Gun gun gun. Will play round 1.
Harry McKay: Less bullish than most here. Maybe games in 2nd half of season. No way he plays ruck in his first year or two either.
Zac Fisher: Round 3 or 4 debut. Play most of the year.
Harrison Macreadie: Could get games if there are a few injuries. Otherwise, will probably be most of the year in the NB. Hopefully 1 or 2 before the end of the year.
Cameron Polson: The well kept secret. Round 1 debut, will play 10-15 games
Tom Williamson: 2018 debut
Jarrod Pickett: Round 4 or 5 for mine. Needs a good fitness base, then find match fitness in the twos.
Patrick Kerr: I think he has a chance to play games next season. Already has a far rig on him.
Jesse Glass-McCasker: 2018 or bust. Will not play this year.
Kym LeBois: May get a game or two towards the back end of the season
Andrew Gallucci: Ditto
Matt Korcheck: 2018 unless MK, Philips, Rowe and Levi all go down.

At 23, if Gallucci isn't getting games in 2017, can't imagine that boding well for 2018.

Ditto JGM

 

[Jeremias]

Ditto JGM

JGM is a 19 year old key defender on the rookie list.

I wouldn't expect to see much of him at senior level in 2017, and I certainly wouldn't be putting a line through his name if he doesn't feature.

If the Rookie rules stay the same, he won't feature at all unless there is a LTI

My guess is we'll see Byrne start the year on the LTI list, but JGM would be an unlikely elevation.

JGM likely won't be considered unless our key defensive stocks have taken a very serious hit. FWIW I don't think we'll see him at all in 2017 but that's not a bad thing nor does it mean he should be cut.

Certainties
Sam Petrevski-Seton
Harry McKay
Zac Fisher
Caleb Marchbank

Maybe
Harrison Macreadie
Cameron Polson
Jarrod Pickett
Jesse Glass-McCasker

No Chance
Kym LeBois
Andrew Gallucci
Matt Korcheck
Patrick Kerr
Tom Williamson

 

[Stefchook]

I'd have thought once Pickett is fit enough to play, they'll start pouring games into him. Just like they did with Sumner this year. (Same obviously with Marchbank.) Elite talent. A little bit older. Offer our senior team some much needed pace.

seriously disappointed you didn't do the whole thing in rhyme!

 

[ItsAllAboutMe]

All except Korcheck, Kerr & Macreadie i would expect to get a look in, injuries depending.

 

[ItsAllAboutMe]

SPS: Would expect he will play round 1 as long as he stays fit and has a good performance in NAB.
Harry McKay: Will need to show form at VFL level first, but will be given a crack.. especially if as expected Levi continues to be a wooden plank in our fwd line.
Zac Fisher: As long as VFL form is strong enough should be ready when his opportunity comes.
Harrison Macreadie: Probably unlikely, we have ample coverage in defence.
Cameron Polson: Could start round 1, will fight with LeBois for the position.
Tom Williamson: Dont know enough about him
Jarrod Pickett: Should start round 1 as long as no relapses and gets himself fit.
Patrick Kerr: Will depend a lot if BB gets frustrated enough with Levi to put a line through him, no reason he cant play a few games at the back end.
Jesse Glass-McCasker: Will be now or never for him, should be given an opportunity provided his VFL form is strong enough
Kym LeBois: Will fight with Polson for a spot round 1.
Andrew Gallucci: Will need strong VFL footy to push down the door, could play 20 games or could play none.
Matt Korcheck: Unlikely as we have 3 rucks ahead of him.

 

[Jimmae]

Harry McKay will have the NAB series to show form, you'd think. Odd that you can mark him so low, and Pickett, a third year player, as a lock.

 

[JustaBattler]

where is that depth fred some old dog started a while ago?

Lol considered it

Agreed, I have a feeling he will continue to progress well next year
