Brad Hill seems to have lifted his game to another level of late. Has been playing some great footy for West Perth colts last few games and had a good game for the U18's. Quite likely to get drafted now IMO.

AFLW 2024 - Round 8 - Chat, game threads, injury lists, team lineups and more.
yep agree. you would think he wouldn't do a warnock.sandi's age would have alot to do with it.Would obviously prefer not to, he's also just signed on until 2013 so it doesn't look like he'll do a Warnock on us. He'd be worth around the same as Warnock when he left IMO.
What type of player are you?
A utility that can ruck and also go forward.
Which AFL player do you feel you resemble, and why?
Mitch Clark, as he's mobile and can go up forward.
What are your strengths as a footballer?
Mobility, a long left foot, and being able to read the play.
What parts of your game would you like to improve?
My contested marking and my right side.
What is the status on Pearce-Bucovaz-Sibo-Shepheard? Can we keep them on the rookie list in 2012?
Also, the AFLPA wants to scrap the rookie list (and increase the main list size) as part of the next collective bargaining agreement ... if that goes through, will the changes take effect in 2012?
Are you worried about Fyfe?
It's one player per club over the two year period, otherwise they will need to trade for them as per Brennan last year and we'll still get a compensation pick to go along with the trade.
Deledio and Goddard bode as the interesting ones next year. I will sleep much easier once pen is put to paper on the Fyfe four year deal. Freo tend to do these in groups, so I hope his name is read out in the next couple of days now that Sandilands and Barlow have signed.
Latest:
2011
Johnson
Schammer
Crowley
Palmer
Houghton
Bollenhagen
Hayden
Hinkley
Grover (vet - outside the list)
So from that list:
Schammer delist
Johnson, Crowley and Palmer possible trade IMO.
Hayden, Grover 1 year deal.
Youthful keep for at least 1 more.
Hinkley keeps going the way he is keep.
Bollenhagen: don't know. Seems to have the tools but...
Upgrade Pearce and Lower
Do you believe that dribble?I cannot then see us hanging on to 2 injury prone kids in Ruffles AND Roberts. One will go, probably Roberts.
Any word on what the match committee think of Gavin Roberts? as a player i mean.
They probably think almost exactly the same as when he was recruited to the rookie list. Not much has changed. Player with potential if he can get his injuries right.
Yeah like us, none the wiser.
The only way they would get rid of him I would think is if the medicos say he is not going to be right to go next year. His background seems perfect for the rookie list.
http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/talent-pool-a-tad-thin-20110706-1h2j8.html#ixzz1RNVqXcK7Here's the good news: the 2012 draft looks very, very strong. Already, a dozen names spring to mind. This time next year, expect to hear plenty about Lachie Whitfield, Rory Atkins and Sam Mayes, for starters. Expect Viney and Joe Daniher to demand first-round picks of the Demons and Bombers as father-son selections, and expect your club to wait until the end of next season to clear out its list and make five, six or more choices.
Clubs looking for key-position players might wish they already had them. Some of the better ''talls'' on offer don't seem big enough to play in key positions - Jordan Kelly, Brody Mihocek, Matthew Buntine, Adam Tomlinson - although all can play.
A bunch of bigger kids have shown exciting glimpses - Sam Frost, Xavier Richards, Sam Gordon - but they have flaws to fix, and consistency to find.
