Who will play AFL footy in their first year

[Talented Player]

With all the draft talk and draft lists. Who will play AFL footy in their first year. (e.g Lance Franklin & Jarryd Roughead)

Maybe Nathan Jones - already built for it. Where Xavier Ellis may need to fill out a bit.

 

[McPhee]

marc murphy will be ready by round 1 for sure!! go murph

Why are you so happy about that? He'll probably be playing for Carlton.

Shannon Hurn as well. Already playing seniors in the SANFL for Centrals.

 

[Philhawk]

Nathan Jones , Josh Kennedy , Mitch Clark ( only a maybe ) , Pat Ryder , NOT Xavier Ellis ( give him a few games only ) , Jarryd Oakley Nicholls , Andrew Swallow - those are the only ones I can think of who are physically ready lol

 

[Philhawk]

Luke Franklin

its Lance mate - or alternatively just call him Buddy

 

[Beamdogg]

Ben Mckinley if he gets bit bigger get a few games i think Nathan Jones easily and Shane Neaves has the body but not the brain

 

[JeNnO_powerfreak_21]

Did anyone watch the SANFL grand final? Hurn is a gun, nailed one from outside 50. ready made he’s built like a tank.

 

[Beamdogg]

yeh i watched it he has a ready buolt frame for afl...anyonei n need of a midfielder to develop and be good should take him

 

[MrMorris]

Cleve Hughes will be ready to go early in the season if he has a good pre season.

 

[rubbers0ul]

If he does pre season and starts doing weights Bunga will play every AFL game in 06 for whatever club he gets drafted to!

Luke Franklin

Wasn't 'Luke' Franklin the guy Bucky nearly called out last year?

 

[cogs24]

Matt Seal might, depends what club he gets drafted to. Paul Bower, and Nick & Ed Lower if they get drafted

 

[Johnson#26]

Hurn and Murphy.

Thank you for picking that up. sorry! (I have changed it)

Cleve Hughes will be ready to go early in the season if he has a good pre season.

Ckeve Hughes is without doubt a long term project. He didn't even play in the league side for Norwood this season, in fact he actually only started playing for the reserves after the U/18 Championships. He will most likely be ready for AFL footy in 2007.

Heard that Xavier Ellis is commiting his footy only to his school next year

 

[MadRyan]

If you're picked top 5, you're pretty much expected to play in your first season. I wonder how many second overall picks have been taken and didn't play a game in their first senior season.

I doubt Collingwood would be picking Ellis if they think he isn't capable body wise in the next two years. You don't need to be built like a sh*t brick house now days.

Murphy, Mills, Hurn, Kannis, Gilbert, Lucy

 

[Drummond]

I wonder when Tim Walsh will be ready to make his AFL debut...?

Edit: How could I forget, he has played 1 game hasn't he?

 

[Beamdogg]

hahaahhhaahahahahahahah top call how long has it been 3 or 4 years

Jarryd Oakley Nicholls is a rake... he wont play next year... if he does it will be a few games towards the end (similar size to Ellis and yet Ellis wont play?)

 

[macca69]

[atpp]

Josh Kennedy will

 

[atpp]

Patrick Ryder will
