Yep and with no one taking kids in the rookie draft anymore - better to invite them as train ons so you're guessing less. But even then, I think it's only really an option if you're comfortable with your depth and aren't already full up with not ready kids.

Rookie draft needs an overhaul. Its meant to be used for kids for an opportunity or for those that have worked hard to get an opportunity -- not what clubs tend to use it for, a list management tool

SSP makes it redundant, but if they want more players given an opportunity they need to increase list sizes. The money is there. Why not add a couple of list spots when they increase the cap by $2 million.

Houston was Port's 3rd rookie draft selection, with the first 2 bombing out. It's really a guess by that stage of drafting.

Yes hence they took multiple.

Also some kids get lost to AFL if undated and off into the workforce.

Whoever we pick was a huge steal that was expected to go much earlier, or a bloke no one has ever heard of with no “elite pathways” experience.

Rookie list should sit outside the cap and must be used on rookie selections.

Not a senior list delisted and the rookied that should be a mature rookie selection as SSP or DFA.

 

[loki04]

Yeah, that would be a great joke

Tough crowd.

It would be as per most drafts, buisness as usual for him.

Unless they increase list spots, teams would take less in the national draft and then cut more kids after 1 year on the rookie draft, because they're recruiting to get the balance they want for this sized list. It wouldn't change the balance of ready vs developing players that they're targetting.

Yeah yeah, we all know the Hine jokes.

I'm confident Leppa & Fly will have more say in this draft than previously.

 

[Apex36]

It will happen. He’s there to troll BF.

You know we need more half back flankers.

Then increase it.
3 Rookie list spots outside the cap with its own rookie cap space allowance.

Allow more youth talents a crack at full time professional environments.

I agree about bigger lists. Players association are looking after themselves I think. They want wages to grow and extra jobs would reduce the wage growth. We should have at least got back to the pre-covid sizes.

We need a KPD as well. Dennis would be awesome
