With only 3 senior spots free on our senior list, I'm not sure how we can have 5 picks to use .

We have 5 spots left if we want a main list of 40 with 4 rookies. But we will go with the 38 + 6 rookies again so only the 3 picks and Petterd and then pass the other 2.

Would be good if we did pick 4 players and have only 5 rookies.

Why 6? Cheaper?

Cheaper and it also means 6 guys are fighting for 2 spots. Keep 'em hungry. Orren and Darrou will be pushing for it and I'm expecting at least one of this years rookies to be mature aged.

also one year contract as opposed to two.

Why do you think it's better to put them on the main list.

Callum Twomey in his live chat on the AFL website today:

"Obviously they [Richmond] have a couple of later picks. Maybe Sam Lloyd is a chance with their last selection, if not as a rookie. They are down to Jake King as their main small forward now."

Brett Anderson also says many AFL clubs are interested in Colac's James Linton as a late pick.

Sam Lloyd (Frankston, 23, 182cm, 82kg): an excitement package from top to toe: likes nothing better than submitting contenders for mark and goal of the year. Regularly succeeded on both counts. Kicked 38 goals from 17 games (and a century of goals for Deniliquin in 2010) in his first season swimming with the Dolphins.

Watching Hawks belt the Pies again is a decent entrée.

The Draft about to start.

This thread will be about general draft talk including other clubs' selections.

[dwaino]

Is the draft on the Gold Coast during schoolies a good idea?

[🏅Dooks]

Teams?

They're going to do the top 10 first and then have a break before doing picks 11-24.
