Rookie discussions and when to cash

[Money Shot]

I know it's early but just thought I would get your guys thoughts.

Weitering surely has to play rd 1 if fit and Francis looks likely.

Not sure about the other KPP's, maybe the Blues will throw in one of Curnow or McKay along side big Levi

I want to say guys like Mills and Hopper but along with the Gold Coast rookies, they have so much talent in the mid field to compete with.

I will be watching NAB closely looking for PSD rookies and rookie priced non rookies over rookies from the main draft as I think that's where the value is.(And they should have bigger tanks which could be critical now there is no sub)
And because I'm hungover and waiting for the cricket here is a list of this years round one players under 220k (I am quite seedy so I might have missed a couple :) )

As you can see only Brayshaw, Miller and Gregson and maybe Lonie were good picks from the main Draft.

Draft	PS&RD	Rookie Priced
Brayshaw	Vandenburg	Clarke
Heeney	Ad.Saad	Oxley
Miller	Sinclair	Salem
Nelson	Ah.Saad	Cripps
Cocky		Brown
Lamb		McIntosh
Lonie		Newton
Gregson		Hogan
C.Smith		CEY
Garlett		Towers
de Goey		Membrey
McGrath		NVB
		Anderson
		Lang

And sorry about the use of the work "rookie" four times in one sentence ;D
My brain isn't working well enough to word it better haha

Very true! I should've made it more clear and just said sub 250k players that will likely be there round 1!

Nathan Freeman would be rookie priced wouldn't he? I reckon the Saints will play him straight up. barring injury of course

Yeah he should be real cheap! He's a gun as well!

What do people think about Jed Anderson, he will probably be sub 250k, will he start for the roos?

I was looking at him earlier but think starting a rookie for 50k less would probably be better!

I don't like starting players around the 250k price so i would be unlucky to start with him but ill certainly consider him :D

Petracca surely will play if fit

McCartin and Menzel are another two that should play rd 1, not sure what price they will be though

Agreed,  also see Lamb getting time straight away as well.

Whys that? Only played 1 game last year and if anything west Coast has improved this year.

What are the chances of Maccaffer playing, and what will his price be? Was decent the other season before he got injured and could be a decent option.

Is probably talking about Jed Lamb
