The Playing Rookies Thread

[Ricochet]

Barker has pretty much said the whole Carlton list will get a run this season to see whether they can find an AFL footballer in there.

Get ready for Walshy!

Who?

Brad Walsh. Rookie listed, played well last few weeks for the northern blues. Inside mid with a bit hardness about him. Captained W.A in the under 18's championships.

Walshy

Who dat!

Gun. WA kid from Carlton, Brad Walsh
Captain the WA side I think from memory

Captain U18 WA side, senior games at Peel as a 17 year old, 180cm/84kg man nugget. Absolute travesty that he fell to the rookie draft.

TBH I would've fired Malthouse for not playing him, forget the rest.

Nick Holman and Nick Graham travelling with Carlton this week

Holman playing the next 2 weeks and being on the bubble in Rd.12 would be absolutely perfect for my plans :)


Of course, this means it won't happen :-\

Nick Holman and Nick Graham travelling with Carlton this week

Carlton should dump the whole senior team and give the reserves a run this weekend, it might improve there odds at the bookies   :o 1$-18$ same with GCS game if Carlton or the Suns get up i want an inquiry into match fixing lol !

[Gigantor]

Amon anyone?

Won't get him this week but with a 25 BE he wont go up much, would only be 156k if he tonned up!
If named next week will consider him and Biggs depending on bye structures and need for cash.

[RaisyDaisy]

OK, so just had a look through everything and IMO Dale is the guy to get this week

Over the next week or two there are several mids and defs bubbling so we can see how they go and assess, but Dale is the only forward (McBean irrelevant) so I think Dale is the pick for sure this week, and I think I'll grab him

[Brookesy]

I have to downgrade this week to get Rocky, already have Dale, so looking at Amon, Dumont and Menadue. What are people's thoughts on the best option?

reckon he is the pick over menadue/amon/dumont

could be another option indeed. I am undecided.

[RaisyDaisy]

Don't see the point in grabbing Amon this week. Will barely go up in cash, and there are several other mids available this week and in the next couple of weeks so I'd rather wait and see

Dale is the only one I'm considering. The cash grab is good, but the JS is a little concerning. That being said he will sit at F8 so that's OK, but Id really need him during the byes

I guess the reality is though that no matter what rookie we pick this week or next, none of them are guaranteed to play through the byes anyway, so might as well just get the only forward who has shown the most - Dale

i think the job security of amon is better than dale however ..... I think ill pick amon if he avoids the sub vest and if not ill pick dale.

K Brooksby in and selected on a forward pocket. Have a feeling I've heard something good about this guy but just can't put my finger on it. Couldn't find him on any SC price list ??  Anyone have anything on this guy ??         :o
