Rookie Draft thread [merged]

[one-eyed]

We know we are going to draft Brad Miller as a mature-age rookie from one of our 4 rookie picks. Hislop is also strongly rumoured to become a rookie. So we may only use two picks on kids in the rookie draft.

Here's some names that were overlooked in the National Draft on Thursday....

Max Otten, the younger brother of Adelaide's Andy, can count himself a little unlucky.
So can South Australian forward Jamie Solly
WA youngsters Justin Monaco and Blayne Wilson.
Tim Milera (small forward from Port Adelaide's SANFL side)
running Eastern Ranges player Aaron Mullett
Geelong Falcons forward Josh Walker
will also be hoping to hear their names called out on rookie draft day, as will many a delisted AFL player, with only a few given a fresh chance.

I wonder how interested Richmond is in James Lawton from Coburg

I reckon Lawton is a good chance of being rookied by someone

I actually thought that we were gonna draft him - I would give him a chance.

The AFL site is saying we will have 5 picks in the rookie draft. They are still classing O'Reilly as an international rookie and so outside the 8 'normal' rookies maximum. I thought the AFL abolished international rookie status for Irish players to appease the GAA in Ireland?

Saw him play 4-5 times. would like to see him given a go, I like they way he goes about it.  I didnt think his kicking was that good (although i could be wrong). If im right then thats maybe why we would over look him with kicking one of our main priorities.

[Mr Magic]

Is it possible we won't draft Hislop?

[camboon]

Is Jacks brother a chance

[WilliamPowell]

Is it possible we won't draft Hislop?

Don't think so Mr M, I think that one is given unless Tommy stuffs up somehow between now and the rookie draft

[torch]

Don't think so Mr M, I think that one is given unless Tommy stuffs up somehow between now and the rookie draft

Hope Hislop fudges up!

What about Myles Sewell?
