Does Houlihan or Braddles have any kids coming through?
Braddles only son Jake Bradley played for the Northern Blues back in 2017 as far as Hoops goes, no idea if he has any children at all, Camporeale twins next year and Hoggy’s son Darcy draft eligible through Northern Knights this year…

Darcy Hogg was eligible last year
Camporeale twins eligible next year

It would seem at the moment the ones on the radar are the Campo twins and Cody Walker... are there any other realistic possibilities in the next 2 years or so...?

Both be good but usually
One is the best - I just picking the one on the left 😉like taking the red or black in casino
We are due a real good father son or 2 - for all our great teams of 80's-90's they weren't good stallions . Waite probably the best ..
Both are showing enough to be considered draftable with an even trajectory. A couple of the draft watchers have Lucas top 10. I have doubts that will eventuate. The boys have shown up early, but the mids and talls usually dominate the top 10. Ben would have had some next level motivation added with his brother added to the Futures squad while he was not.

With two running, outside distributors on the radar next year, I would expect we address a different piece of the list management puzzle at the end of this season. KPP(D), x-factor forward, hybrid midfielder or perhaps a succession piece for our ageing medium/small defence.

That's what I've been thinking, unless they have a growth spurt and develop more imposing physiques. My thinking has always been getting a draft pick in before we have to match a bid.
 
Wingmen/flanker types also don't often push top 5 selections, so unless one/both ups midfield minutes and shows a bit there they likely won't be pushing the premium pick part of the draft, which helps.
The rub is we are talking post season 2024. Thinking most of this board has us at the pointy end of the ladder, thus a 16-18 draft pick. A quality outside runner could easily land in the 12-20 range. It is a consideration, more will be known following 5he coming season.

I know they're next year. It's not overly concerning as picking in the 14-18 range doesn't really worry me if they're expected to go in the 10-12 range as it's not that much in points compensation to get them from there.

If both are in that spot then maybe it's tricky but by the sounds of things it's just one with the other being in the 20s or 30s so it shouldn't be too hard to work out the points there.
 
Braddles son is 37.....
still quite spritely though..
