Mr.Craig's Rookie Spotlight

[Mr.Craig]

Is Mitch the brother of Shaun from Richmond?

I think Toga is a Redlegs fan, not sure if he can tell me anything.

No, I don't think they are brothers.

Scrads might be a Norwood supporter too but don't quote me on that.

[Toga]

@IML, Mitch is not the brother of Shaun - completely unrelated if I am correct! ;)


Mat Suckling has been a very solid player for us as well, was vital to our success last year, and could be a chance to be picked up by a team this year... How do we keep on winning with all our players being taken by the AFL? ;D

Sorry Mr. Craig I don't really follow a SANFL team (do know some players though, mainly central districts). JB-Hawks is definitely an avid follower though :)

I've been wondering about that, thanks for clearing it up Toga.

He's been very good, going to be disappointing for him when they lose in the GF to Westies though  ;D

Daniel Currie got BOG on the weekend. Was against Essendon so direct opponent David Hille. Not a bad effort.

13 kicks
7 handballs
6 marks
4 tackles
1 goal
30 hitouts.

[Mr.Craig]

My research for the 2014 profiles continues to gain pace. I've identified 9 players who are currently averaging over 100 DT in the TAC alone. There's probably more, but I'm still in the process of collating numbers.

Nice pickup. Nicholls -> Currie once he's peaked would be nice.

Up the South Aussies!

What do you know (if anything) about Peter Steffe, the SA ruckman?

"2 Metre Peter"  ;D

205cm and good tap work but a mate of mine played against him and said that he was terrible, shouldn't even be out there (and that was only a South Adelaide game.

Yeah, apparently his ruck work is exceptional but he doesn't do much else around the ground. I haven't really done much research on the junior ruck stocks as of yet but it's not out of the question that he could get picked up.

This sums up the 2014 rookie situation pretty well...

Massive amount of choice when it comes to mids and you'd imagine clubs will be looking far and wide to supplement the other positions.

KMart omitted. Any news on whether or not he's done? Could oust him for the Griff this week...

I'm seriously pissed about that. He has three very good games then gets vested and used as a scapegoat for Collingwood's showerhouse performance. He's due to go back on the rookie list in a few games so it's probably worth taking the money and moving on.

What do you think of forward downgrade optins this week?


Murdoch, Lamb, Sumner?

Leaning towards Sumner despite a few price rises.
