Adam Tipungwuti is expected to go long before we get a look in... Norf are very keen

With our recruitment history - we are just as likely to relist Jackson Merrett and Leuenberger

[Windy_Hill]

Can these players be picked from any league...say the WAFL or SANFL?

Harsh but true

[Windy Hille]

Aaron Heppell has nominated. Go for it!

[BenDoolan]

Are we able to pick 15 players in the MSD???

[grassy1]

Pick’em all from Subiaco,Claremont and South Fremantle if you have to pillage the WAFL.

OK - if we swing one of Stringer and Shiel onto the LTI list - could we get 3 picks?

Already have Joe, Dev and the ruckman kid Draper

The way we coach and play - they'd go backwards anyway

[Crazyman]

Is there a mid season delisting period?

[bpdons]

I’d prefer we don’t go for the quick fix mid season draft. We have juniors on our list that have had multiple seasons without much of a look in. Let’s see how they go, otherwise we’re just throwing draft picks away by using them on players we have no intention of selecting.

Don't worry ... I reckon that the Mid-season draft is little more than a distraction for supporters of those clubs who have had a horror season and selling the hope and snake oil that with one or two pickups from outside, they will turn their season around.

A back up ruck might be useful, if someone likely is available.

Smack is wasted there.

Well, there's a surprise.

We picked Will Snelling (with pick 7), a 21 year old ,short (174 cm or 5' 7") light (80Kg) mid. Was on the Port rookie list for 3 years and managed 1 game and was desisted at end of 2018. He did win the Port Adelaide B&F and their most consistent awards in 2017.
He captained the SA U18 team in 2015 and won the MVP in that comp.
Apparently we have tracked him through his junior days...
Touted as a possible replacement for Devon.
Did I say he is short? He is the same height as McKenna and 3 cm taller than Tippa but shorter than Mozzie (176) and Fanta (178).
He gets a lot of possessions but mainly handballs. He likes to tackle.

The ruck Michael Knoll went at pick 4 to Syd. Pickett went to Rich for pick 13. We did not make a play for Tippa Mk 2

We did not make a second selection. This either means that we are going to upgrade a category B rookie(I didn't think we had one) or... We are happy about our list ... or there is real salary cap pressure on the club coming into negotiations (we are talking 70K here).

After Knoll, Sam Baulderstone may have been worth a look for immediate playing as he has been the dominant Ruck in the SANFL for the past 5 years. While he is 28, he could have provided a couple of seasons support/insurance.

Oh,and in a curious development ...late last week we worked hard to get Tippa 2 placed onto a restriction list (as he is from the Tiwi Islands which is our Academy Zone), but the AFL knocked us back.

So this week when we had a pick and he was available .. we passed instead.

Go figure.
