Awesome write-up mate!

Will be a lot of awesome bargains next year. If Hmac calls it quits Todd Goldstein will be a ripping pickup!!

My early tips for best rookies next year are:

. Ben Kennedy
. Lachie Whitfield
. Jack Viney
. Jaeger O'Meara
. Shane Valenti (Mature aged)

Name seems familiar... What's his story? Why wasn't he picked in years gone by?

Yeah he played 15 odd games for Melbourne in 08-09 and was delisted by them at the end of the 09 season, apparently he's playing VFL now.

Was delisted by Melbourne in 2009. He then went on to win back to back JJ.Liston Trophies in the VFL but is yet to be re-drafted despite being continually named in Port Melbourne's best week in week out (even in 2012, with only 2-3 weeks where he wasn't named best).

BTW had a solid average in DT of 72.1 and 79.8 in his two years.

I know hes 27 or 28 but Brent Staker will be cheap as chips next season and will no doubt have DEF/FWD tag on him

A speedy (and game breaking) small forward who has moved into the midfield this season for SA and his club team which has proven to be a blessing. Not only does he have the ability to kick multiple goals but he usually gathers 20+ possessions and has dominated in this years U18 champs (although he has been underwraps, as others have out performed him as well). He was also eligible for the mini draft last year.

I smell a MID-FWD DPP !

So should be a mid/fwd?

Possibly, virtual sports have a knack of not giving DPP to rookies who should get it. E.G. Buntine.

The Rioli cousins of Cyril look like having prospects too if they're picked up.
Not sure if they're eligible this year though?

[MTTY]

Willy Rioli is an overage player (so was eligible last year, can still nominate this year)

Ben Rioli is eligible for the 2013 Draft.


GWS has first call on both of them though.

One of them is under-aged so is ineligible, but the other one can get drafted this year

Bruce McAveney must find that "deliciousssssssss!"

Jimmy Toumpas (Woodville-West Torrens) will end out somewhere on an AFL list & is def worth keeping an eye on in the pre-season. Speedy skillful type. Spending his second year in the seniors after winning a premiership as a 16 y.o.
