So how many picks we have tomm?.

Recruiter Richard Taylor said we'll have 4 picks (including Arnot) in the rookie draft today.



* We had a list of players just underneath our draftable list and would've considered drafting these in the 4th/5th round of the National Draft if those from our primary list had been all taken. So we've done a power of work on some of these kids available in the rookie draft. We've got a short of list of 14-15 we're confident we'll go through in the rookie draft [today] and of course we'll be re-drafting Matty Arnot as well. We'll have 4 picks in the rookie draft.

Rookie Draft

Round 1

[tony_montana]

Jayden Short

An exceptional kick on either side of his body, Short's kicking ability has been likened to that of Hawthorn star Sam Mitchell. He averaged almost 22 possessions a game in the TAC Cup and finished the season as one of the competition's most efficient ball-winners. A broken jaw interrupted the start of his year and meant he missed selection for Vic Metro. But he had an impressive season nonetheless, displaying terrific speed and agility to go with his elite kick. He was played mainly off the wing this year, but can move forward or into the middle.
