The Playing Rookies Thread 2017 Edition

[AaronKirk]

Based on what I watching Newman will play.
Vickers Willis won't be moving from my backline either.

Hopefully Darcy Cameron can earn his spot

Florent looks a smart player and surely is ahead of foote for a game.

Hibberd isn't doing it for me. Likewise turner. Neither looks like they will score big.

Thoughts?

Looks good for Newman and Florent. Cameron been good but is there a spot there with Buddy, Tippett, Naismith etc? I am unsure?

None of the North rookies in the 1st half have done much. A heavy reliance on their senior players and they are behind.

Haven't liked the look of vickers Willis for north?

He's been solid. I want to see more before making a decision though.

Robbie fox anyone?
$102k mid who looked lively up forward.

Rookie listed so needs to be upgraded

Papley and Johnson are on LTI list so there are spots available. Fox looked alright. Is a mature age recruit and fits into the swans profile for the type of player to pick. One to keep an eye on.

Bowes Brodie and mcgluggage showed enough for mine

Thoughts ?

Rocket said Brodie wouldn't play until mid-year. Bowes and Clugg have never left my side.

Yeah I reckon I need to find 31k to get glug into my side

20yo, played VFL last year. Avg 16 possies. Had tagging roles. 28 Points come from tackles. Probably not a reliable scorer but watch and see.

Can only afford one 200k player, Taranto vs McCluggage. Discuss.

I have both. Usually try and go for entry priced rookies but it looks like this year we may need to spend more. If choosing one McClug probably for JS. Reassess at the end of JLT. One or both could be dumped by then.

Reckon Taranto just walks into GWS 22?

Kennedy and Hopper didn't, so I cannot see how he can

If both are named round 1 I'll be picking Taranto for sure

Yeah don't see him playing round 1. Could end up being the best of the draft though.
