Saints could do with Mannagh, seeing Gresham has left.
Van De Houvel could be a handy FB pick up.

Player’s choice to nominate for the National Draft or PSD.Do these guys need to enter the draft or can they be nominated for the PSD?
But in the PSD, they can nominate their club of choice, yeah?Player’s choice to nominate for the National Draft or PSD.
Edit: unless you meant the SSP (preseason Supplemental Signing Period).

Geelong need van de heuvel with sav gone (no kpd depth) and with the family connection i imagine we would be keen to take him.
Is Bailey, Sophie’s brother?
You seem to know your stuff, AFL is becoming a business with quotas , if there is a private school bias it will affect the northern states as the Private schools up there won't be offering Aussie Rule scholarships
No idea.
You’d have to name both players, so someone could assess their footballing ability.
The majority of quality city kids are on a footy scholarship by year 10 or 11, regardless of where they live.
The APS schools are even picking up kids from interstate on footy scholarships (there are kids from both the Lions & Suns academies on footy scholarships in Vic).
If your kid at the State school hasn’t been offered a scholarship to a private school, fair chance he’s not a genuine draft prospect.
*I’m just some random numpty on the interwebs sitting at home in another State, so I’d be taking my posts with a big bucket of salt.
So they were offered scholarships, but turned them down?That's a fair generalisation.
Whilst most kids do get private school scholarships, there's still plenty in each draft from state schools or non APS/AGSV schools
Harley Reid goes to Kyabram P-12, he would have got every scholarship offer under the sun to board somewhere.
Zane Duursma goes to Lowanna College (Same school as Bailey Humphrey) and the same applies to him as Reid.
Nate Caddy is at Parade College.
etc
Some kids just don't want to move schools and or/ away from home.
Doubt it. One trick pony.Does Patrick Voss, Essendon DFA, get another AFL gig?
Good KP size, ferocious tackler, good set shot at goal.
Boyd woodcock
Kai Owens
Kobe Ryan
Geelong, Collingwood, Sydney and Gold Coast have all done work on the unassuming intercept defender, expressing varying levels of interest.
Can probably add North to the Mannagh interest with his Werribie coach Barlow there nowLooks like Sam Sofronidis is a very good shout to get an opportunity... Played at Sandy Dragons the year the King twins were there and dominated in the VAFA for Collegians this year.
I've heard from two VFL contacts that Shaun Mannagh is a very good chance this year, probably as a rookie. Both were pretty dismayed that he hasn't been given a shot before and is well ahead of other VFL pick ups like Mick Gibbons and Robbie McComb when they were drafted. He's apparently been spoken to by Carlton, Melbourne and West Coast.
Ethan Phillips would be a rare standout to win the Fothergill-Round-Mitchell Medal and not get drafted, although there's not been much talk on him; reckon his chances might have taken a hit when North opted for Toby Pink as a DFA, who were supposedly into both (although maybe they still are). Those that have won that medal, have been drafted to an AFL list for 15 straight years.

Interesting. Duffield /code sports had Freo interested in mannagh & clohseyMakes some sense, but those 3 clubs are the only ones the were mentioned to me...

Phillips has signed with box hill so likely that the hawks take him to fill the key back spot. If he’s ok that’s a lot of cash saved on Ben McKay!Looks like Sam Sofronidis is a very good shout to get an opportunity...

I didn't know he'd switched actually. Port had convinced him to stick with footy and given him a heap of opportunity and development, so that's a bit of a surprise.
I don't really see how Box Hill signing him makes him any more likely to be drafted though, it actually says the opposite to me. Him commiting to training with Hawthorn over the pre-season would actually suggest that there isn't much solid interest, outside of a remote SSP chance with the Hawks.
I'm guessing that he may still live at home with his mother in their Kooyong/Hawthorn residence; Box Hill probably just represents a less arduous travel time to training and that he's leaning towards not being drafted, but taking the chance and going all in with BH/Hawthorn.
