3 rookies to be promoted for 2008
« on: August 23, 2007, 05:17:51 PM »
Gus, King and Howat will be promoted to the senior list for next year. Now we'll still require a minimum of 3 draft picks as required by the AFL so that means 6 current Tigers to go at least.

I doubt we will be drafting beyond r3 people. Thats 4 picks at the national draft.

Thats 7 delistings + 1 for the PSD= 8 gone.

I agree with that 3 kids a year is enough

IMO we'll have to use a later National draft pick on say a Silvester. He won't last till the PSD with other clubs snooping.

With Kingsley we got "You know I can't answer those questions". Same with the 11 supposedly out of contract - "You don't believe what's in the papers".

Minimum of 5 kids in the draft , preferably 6-7

If we only draft 3 we may as well fold..

Well 2 out of 3 make sense to me.

Agree that Sylvestor is unlikely to survive until the PSD or rookie draft. I think there might a bit of cat (ie Big Cat ;)) and mouse regarding Jarrod teams trying to work out what other teams are doing

Agree HB 3 kids is nowhere near enough but this draft lacks depth so we might only go for 5 kids rather than pick up an extra kid or two with picks after 60 just for the sake of it who most likely will turn out no better than the players we are letting go.

I'm hoping that Big Cat has Y&B stripes  :pray

Howat is softest Richmond player ever. He makes Petts look tuff.

What a shocker!
