Midseason draft
« on: April 11, 2024, 07:06:29 PM »
MID-SEASON DRAFT SET

The MID-SEASON Rookie Draft is set to take place between rounds 11 and 12 with more than half of the competition's clubs currently holding open selections.

Clubs were told on Wednesday that the intake of picks for the mid-season draft will be staged on Wednesday, May 29.

Given the draft order is based on the ladder at that point of the season, the draft needs to be staged before the bye weeks start and clubs have played different amount of games, with the bye rounds running from round 12-15 this year.

There are currently 13 potential open list spots around the competition for clubs to use at the mid-season draft.

There’s an expectation that the Tigers will select Mutaz El Nour in the mid season draft.

A 22 year old key defender with strong signs of athleticism, kicking and intercept marking.

A product of our VFL team, surprised he wasn’t somewhat taken from us somehow.

Assumed we would but now that bloke's said it not so sure ...is absolutely full of it and yet to get a single thing right... :shh

Will McLachlan from the the Geelong Falcons Footy Factory™ is another I'd wouldn't be unhappy with....arguably more a long term pick than immediate need though... :shh :shh
