Hartigan was the Captain of his Under 19 TAC cup side - IIRC they won the premiership that year -so he's been a leader in his junior days

Sorry Bill, but I think you have got your facts wrong but your intent is spot on.

The TAC CUP is an Under 18 competition and always has been.

Brent Hartigan played in a Calder Cannons Premiership team in 2003 but Adam Bentick, now at Carlton, was the Captain of that Premiership team with the captaincy being shared throughout the year, as it always is at the Cannons. Hardo may well have been, and would have deserved to be,  one of the captains during 2003 though.

I agree that he is a leader and is instrumental at Tigerland in showing the new guys the ropes of starting out in AFL footy.

I hope rodan has a good season so we can trade him at the end of it for a 3rd rounder.

If Richard Cole can go for a early second rounder then we should want more than a 3rd rounder for anyone in our best 22.

Cogs, Newman and Lids name themselves really. Sarge is also a bit of a surprise but he's been training well and he adds a tall into he junior leadership group.

Change to TAC Cup Age Eligibility

By Caroline Wilson
The Age
December 8, 2005

New rules may help more former TAC Cup players get a place on an AFL list, despite missing out at a national draft.

Nineteen-Year-Old footballers will be allowed to play in the TAC Cup next season in the first age-related rule change in the under-18 competition's 14-year history.

Well it isn't an Under 18 Comp anymore.
