1290 Players have Nominated ...

farrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr ... a fair bit ...

though some (about 10-20%) are Ex-AFL Players ... as we already know ...

though i never realised how many nomination there are in a draft ...

and only 100-120 Players are Drafted through both Draft, Pre-Season, Rookie ...

about 9.3% - 10.0% of those nominations get picked ... tough competition ... lol ... interesting ...

Ben Hart from Adelaide is there.

Surely he's not wanting to play again?

David Gourdis would be show at Pick 18 for us. A type Plough would like.

NAB AFL Draft Camp highlights

    * 20m Sprints – 2.83 (1st overall)
    * Vertical Standing Jump – 81 cm (1st overall)
    * Repeat Sprints – 24.22 sec (6th overall)

Kevin Sheehan, AFL National Talent Manager says:

“Gourdis you just couldn’t ignore at Draft Camp where he tested in the top 1 per cent of anyone [in Camp history] for speed. At 192cm he did a 2.83 second time which was the quickest at Camp and he was up in the top bracket with the repeat sprints as well, and his vertical jump was again in the top 1 per cent of the kids we’ve ever tested. What that says to you – it doesn’t say ‘you are going to play AFL football’ – it says that you’ve got enormous athletic ability. He’s a WA under-18 rep this year so you’ll go back and have a good look at him playing for them. He’s a lead-up forward with that kind of speed and spring.

“He’s still developing as a player with his use of the footy and his decision making, but he’s got wonderful athletic ability and at his age there’s still scope for plenty of improvement in him. He’s got some attributes that will take all the clubs take notice and assess their football evaluation of him.”

Jon Haines, Talent and Coaching Manager WA Football Commission says:

“David blew us away with his sprint work for a guy of his size. He played mainly in key position roles for Subiaco this year – both forward and back – more so at centre half-forward in the colts. He works pretty hard up the ground and with that pace he causes a few headaches for defenders.

“He’s a very team-oriented player; probably overly so. One thing he could probably do is keep the ball to himself a little bit more; he tends to go over and above in terms of bringing other players into the game, but he’s a very coachable and flexible young player with a lot of the attributes that clubs are looking for.”

75 picks in total

70 live picks excluding father son etc.

Clubs will pass in the later rounds so it's probably likely to be only 67 picks.

A poster on BF has posted edited highlights of U18 football this year (mostly from the U18 carnival with some TAC cup from Kreuzer and Cotchin).
