Kangaroo bargains

Well done North, great draft picks. Who would have thought we could have got such bargains in Shaun Atley and Kieren Harper. I was hoping to get Issac Smith, but we have done even better.I never thought Atley would go so late. Harper at 27 is a steal he is all class.

havent seen a whole lot of harper to be honest but you have done well with atley, will be a a bargain for dt too :)

Bargain in atley & harper too :o both verrry good... Atleys kicking is the main turn off but other than that he is a gun.

Anything above 10 was a bargain for him ;). His work ethic will fix his problems sooner rather than later. Under Brad Scott's regime will only do him well 8).

is he worth considering come AFL DT opening day?

At his price, Definately. He was touted as top 5/10 for a reason ;).

He might be on the fringes/bench to start with although with teh Roo's rebuilding their midfield, might actually start from the get go. But hard to tell right now.

Yeah Boomer will play more and more time in the forward line, with the young midfield he may get a start early, alongside Swallow, Anthony and Ziebell to name a few.

kangas should be stoked. can see them being top 8 soon. :)

I dont know how much game time Atley will get,the midfield seems pretty well stocked. Swallow, Bastinac, Adams, Anthony, Greenwood, Cunnington, Ziebell, and hopefully a fit Wells. Then does he pass Mcmillian and Speight. By the look of him he will be a future gun, but will he be worth the pick this year?

roo boys! · November 20, 2010, 08:03:06 AM

i have to admit, i haven't seen that much of him, but i think he could hold speight out of the team that little bit longer...

does that mean atley's price will drop considerably since h'es not top ten?? cause now im interested :)

Justin Bieber · November 20, 2010, 10:42:01 AM

Still picked in the first round so will be a little extra but not as high as the top 10 picks would be.

BoredSaint · November 20, 2010, 05:53:08 PM

hes listed as 132k on fanplanner.. would imagine he could be slightly cheaper.. was at the very end of round 1. so maybe 116kish
