Willem Drew apparently was very impressive in the Port/Adelaide U23 scratchie. Could be a RD1 chance with Wines out

Very strong at the contest, would be a good pick I think.

From Lee Gaskin

"McHenry was impressive. Covered a lot of ground and kicked a classy goal. Duursma did some nice things as well"

Most people are only filling spots and will adjust when Rd 1 teams are named. Is Gibbons guaranteed a start Rd 1 for example. Judgement calls will be made as well.

you dont need to have them on the field you just need to have them in your squad. Not every one of these mid rookies will kill it. plus you will likely be dropping 1-2 of them in the first 6-7 and then carrying the rest of them till the byes.

there will be injuries/suspensions to deal with too so just as long as you own the good rookies you will be fine.

Throwing out Cousins as an alternate for Walsh at the same price point.

I've actually got both Cousins and Walsh in the moment, but it's purely just place holding still. Both options, but I need to see more before making a call on them

Cousins, having been in the system longer, and with no Titch around seems like the front runner for mine. 75+ a real chance if he holds down a spot in the mids, and at 219k he should make some cash too but still need to see more before committing

If you knew he would play each week he is a great pick. And it's definitely possible. But I don't think it's certain. Too much of a selection/rotation risk. Clarko has definitely been known to drop well-performing younger players after a few games.
