classic pricktorian bias, and Brander is Victorian!

Atley and Ling were small chances of Round 1 debut's but both are no chance with injuries now

Corbett was a lock, but he's now injured too which means he'll be likely to start in the NEAFL as he is out for 4 weeks now :'(

Pretty big out - was an important fwd rookie

Sounds good. I was hoping Atkins could get a small pressure forward role AKA ZGL Puopolo etc. due to his elite tackling numbers in the VFL. There is a spot there with Lincoln & Menzel gone. FF: Ablett Hawkins Atkins for Round 1? Wishful thinking? I will settle for a spot on the bench.

FWD rookies looking dodgy now with no Corbett. Most including myself have Cavarra & Parker but I doubt either will get a gig round 1. Hopefully Petracelle gets a gig. I think Stoddart for a little extra might get a gig. Tho probs only scores 45 - 50 at best. Rozee plays but he aint cheap. Goes to show what a complete waste of time it is tinkering with your team until the Round 1 rookies are named. The entire structure has to be catered to which ones in what positions actually get named. At this stage I think I may have to axe 2 premo mids for 2 extra premo fwds with Setters going from F3 to F5.

If Setters doesn't get up for round 1 (definite possibility) I may be fielding Moore at F6

Seb Ross on Matt Parker, FWD ($117.3k) yesterday ... “he can come through the midfield and he’s a really hard match-up. He’s long and rangy, but also super quick and can really jump and take marks.  And he’s really fit, so we should be able to get a lot out of him as well."

[enzedder]

I think the McKay twin at North will get games this season, as he's touted as Thompsons replacement who should retire this year. So they'll need to get games into him. And now Tarrant has done a shoulder, I would put the house on it McKay will play Rnd 1.          Ben McKay $123k DEF keep an eye on him in JLT.

certainly one to keep an eye on.

EVW i think comes in for Daw and Tarrant is supposed to be back for round 1.

Durdin will be back healthy at some point too and put pressure on Mckay if he gets a spot and doesnt peform.

Forgot to mention Thompson's out suspension first two rounds, McKay is a monty.

Monty to be dropped before he makes any cash?  :P

Just read on Twitter that Durdin has injured his finger opening some food.
North Melbourne is set to ban him from using metal utensils from now on.

[Football Factory]

These guys might have half a chance of playing round 1 ? I don't know how they fit into best 22 though?

Robert Young - Stk

Taken with pick No. 67 in the 2018 NAB AFL Draft, Young is a speed machine who is renowned for his defensive pressure and goal-sense. The 23-year-old was part of North Adelaide’s premiership side in 2018 and impressed with Port Adelaide before joining the Roosters.

Shane McAdam - Adel

Initially selected by Carlton as a mature-aged pre-draft access pick, Shane McAdam was quickly traded to the Crows in 2018. A medium-sized forward, McAdam equaled Nic Naitanui’s running vertical jump record at the 2015 Draft Combine but was overlooked. He booted 31 goals in 17 games for Sturt in a superb 2017 SANFL season, catching the attention of Adelaide’s recruiting team
