Considering Kadhlefelt's been training since they resumed, you'd think he is a good chance of being selected. If they had decided against him then surely he would have been told not to bother turning up any more. If he is selected I wouldnt be surprised if he is the PSD choice given that he will be 23 next year and you would want him on the main list so he can play early in the season if he warrants selection.

I cant help but think about the report that Jackson said Burgan does his research for the first round but pretty much guesses after that in the ND
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

Can't see us taking Grimes. The kid can't kick and even FJ said there's no point taking talls unless they can play.

For some reason from the highlight vision Grimes' kicking action reminds me of Tayte Pears'.

That's not a major issue for us next year as we have no vets so we can nominate two rookies to play from round 1 without needing anyone to be on our LTIL.

popelord, i thought i remember your liking for tom harms prior to the national draft.  from the write up of Harms, he looks to be a good prospect.  would not be disappointed if we picked him up

He saw him in the carnival stands out with big Blonde dreadlocks identical to Ben Nason lol.

He's not as quick as Nason but much bigger and has a huge left foot on him, finds the footy well and kicks goals as a midfielder. Think he kicked 14 goals in 3 games in the SANFL U/18's.

Go Tigers!

Matt Burgan was just on SEN with Ox and Francis. As far as our PSD pick he said it could be any of the kids training with us but he believes it's down to Dylan Grimes or Robbie Hicks.

176cm 68kg forward from the Calder Cannons.

Quick but too small.

Pass.
