Now I'm totally confused

Taz going by your listing before Kellaway we have 38 Primary 4 Rookies (3 - A & 1 - B)

that makes a total of 42

Add in Kellaway and it's 43

I thought total lists is 44

So why don't we have 1 more spot available

Yeah it’s 1 rookie spot left which will be used on kellaway youd imagine. Although it is strange we haven’t come out and announce it since you are allowed to make rookie selections outside of the draft time for F/S.

We’d also have a rookie B spot left which is seperate to everything else if we find someone that is new to the sport.

um no you cant

Players can nominate but you cant pick them outside the dratf

I think they can for f/s

Ditto nga but to the CatB. Wce did it last night for the guy that sounds like where's wally

So...they're all quick?

I didn't know they existed until a few hours ago but -  What I like about Peuker, NRT.

Outside of being fast.

Is they seem to have really good stats; goals, tackles, touches

Part of me thinks claw was right - Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves, Marcus Krasnadamskis, Ollie Greeves, Tom Burton, Blake Oudshoorn-Bennier, Rory Wright etc. .

Still some highly rated kids available. Maybe we should have cut deeper. Your Smith's. Sonsises. Types.

Then again we already have many 17-19 year olds on the list. Not sure how many you can carry without it being a kindergarten.

Clawski wanted 8 new faces plus. Looks like we will bring in 7 ifmy maths is right.

I don’t think there was too many out of contract out of the fringe players so we couldn’t cut too many more. Not sure if smith was out of contract. Sonsies the one for me, he was out of contract and had a decent crack of it at AFL level although not in his best position.

It isn’t just because of being able to take more players the past few nights, but assuming we take our pick today, it means our list is full and we have no flexibility for a SSP addition or to take anyone in the MSD unless we get a LTI or a retirement (hopefully not).

We could have just paid them out? Or come to an agreement? Ala kosi

What is the bombers zone exactly? They said during the draft yesterday that if CDT’s dad was born outside in Sri Lanka like his grandparents were then he would have been in their academy. So do they just have first dibs on all children of immigrants because that is one hell of a zone if they do.

My current rubbish is now wce getting an additional 4 rookie spots.

How do they get this and Richmond nothing?

When they won a flag only couple years prior to tigers
