There is a young Starcevich running around in a junior comp somewhere, I saw the name not that long ago, so it may be sooner rather than later.When do we expect him to take a speccy over a Starcevich?

Going by a HUN story Rice sounds like he will chose the Saints.
Someone will be able to post the link.
Rice, on choosing between the two clubs.

"The decision will probably be after the combine. [I'll] speak to dad, speak to Maxy [manager Mark Kleiman], and I'll come to something after the combine.
"[I'm] not leaning one way or another. Either of them I'm fine with."
Rice should be tacken in the mid to late 20's. He's an elite kick, good size and a real weapon off half back.Can someone correct me in hoping we don't take Rice for a pick in the late teens or twenties?
Reckon trading those picks will get us a better result.

I for one welcome SOS1, SOS2 and SOS3.
He's tough and neat but can't help seeing meat & potatoes here.
I wouldn't puff my chest out for a win, in paying too much for him.
Sounds like a Steven Browne type player to me. Which does not inspire.He's tough and neat but can't help seeing meat & potatoes here.

How many goals did Jack kick in the Under 18s Championship?
Answers own question, apparently only 9 goals from 6 matches, though 6 in one of them.
That would mean first bid on Rice at around pick 30, and SOS around pick 43. I think both bids will be a shade higher.I think with discounts we should be able go 3rd rounder for Rice
4th for SOS.
This is why getting some steak knives picks in trade deals gives us some leverage.
Also if we run out of points this year we can downgrade picks (in the rounds that we match, next year)
Pretty sure
Browne's decision making and disposal were less than optimum, as was his pace. Rice scores very well in those areas.Sounds like a Steven Browne type player to me. Which does not inspire.
when he is at a shop and suddenly young SOS comes from nowhere and jumps on his shoulders to grab something off the top shelfWhen do we expect him to take a speccy over a Starcevich?
Given Browne's questionable decision making, disposal and pace, one wonders how he was even drafted in the first place...Browne's decision making and disposal were less than optimum, as was his pace. Rice scores very well in those areas.

He wasn't a bad option. he just wasn't the best option. He concentrated well on his man and he had a very good Carnival. We were looking for a type of Player and Browne looked OK. Given that extra yard of pace and he would have played a LOT more games. After all, Tom Bell did and his decision making and kicking are not reliable. Nor are Andrew Walker's and he has played a fair bit.Given Browne's questionable decision making, disposal and pace, one wonders how he was even drafted in the first place...
The draft was pretty thin by his pick (#36). Chris Mayne (who'd been injured), Jack Steven, and Armfield were the only decent players after him.Given Browne's questionable decision making, disposal and pace, one wonders how he was even drafted in the first place...
Reading the AFL article on updated Draft Night technology it stated that for bids on father son players outside the First Round clubs will not have to be concerned about using points from next year's pick as they can just use their next available pick.
Is this correct?
It was my understanding that when this policy was first implemented it could eat into points from next year and that you always had to find the appropriate points no matter where selected. Although once it go to a certain point, where 20% would stop giving you a significant benefit, it would just give you an automatic 200 point deficit or something.
Is this therefore an updated policy and we won't have to worry about getting picks in the 40's to save our first round next year in case Bailey and SoS are bid relatively high?
