2009 Draft

[The Coast]

Does anyone know of any potential top draftees that are available to be picked up by GC17 this November?

As I understand it, they will have the chance to sign 12 x 17 year-olds born in the January – April window (Jan-April 1992). Is this correct?

I don't really know any of the top prospects (apart from the ones listed in the prospectus) but are any of them eligible to go to GC17?

GC17 doesn't draft until 2010

Correct, but they do have the ability to sign players outside the draft.

As I understand it, that is spot on.

So that would include guys like Alex Keath, Josh Toy, Dylan Conway, Trent Mackenzie, Thomas Gordon, Tom Nicholls and Luke Mitchell from Victoria's U16 teams last year. Others of course, that's just a few names.

Gary Sanderson, Mark Omnipatro, Todd Fellanski and Brodie Hillenstop are all going to be guns

darcy armfield, hayden jolly and scott lycett (200+cm dean cox like mobility) onoly real solid chances of gold coast signature! jolly and lycett possibly too young at this stage but armfield is a genuine chance

The Advertiser had an article on Lycett a few months ago. Looks a real player.

They stated that he was eligible for the Gold Coast, and hinted at the Coasters trying to get him to move over a year early.

Then again, its the advertiser, so read into that what you will

but yes no a few guys that played with him in last years u/16 champs. they said he was an absolute jet

When you use the word guns I expect them to be top 10 players
maybe top 20 players in a national draft.

Do you think the above players would be drafted there ?

I was under the impression that Gold Coast were targeting Maverick Weller and Brandon Matera among others. They were also attmepting to move these kids and some others over a year early.

Here is a link to all players available to Gold Coast who played U16's:
