Thomas had 20 possies for Norwood in the SANFL Grand Final yesterday.


... delisted Port Adelaide midfielder Matt Thomas (20 disposals) did his chances of being picked up by another club no harm in winning plenty of hard balls in the packs.

Matt played well but the player that caught my eye was Matt Fuller. Hard at it HBF who kicks the ball unbelievably well, has very good pace and is only 23 years young. Watching him I see a lot of  Brent Guerra being a left footer, strong bodied, etc. Well worth considering IMO.

No mention of us being linked to Matt Thomas on the AFL website ....


Matt Thomas
Age: 26 Career games: 87
The tough onballer was a regular in the Port Adelaide side between 2010 and 2012, but managed only four senior games this year under new coach Ken Hinkley. However, he showed strong form at SANFL level, winning the Magarey Medal as the competition's best and fairest player. Would provide instant value to a club looking for a mature body in the midfield.

We have 3 picks in the national draft on nov 21

And 3 or 4 rookie spots available

Yeah I suppose he's a chance for a rookie spot. Wouldn't rookie him myself but I do think we are more likely to take mature aged rookies than  kids this year

We have 3 main list and 3 rookie spots. So plenty of room if we want to throw a spot down the drain.  :lol

I think we may end up with more than 3 rookie selections  ;D
