The ones in black would be quite confident but the ones in red may be a little nervous come draft day.
 
I would be talking to VFL/SANFL/WAFL clubs, or auditioning for one of the U/19 TAC Cup spots if I was these kids:

Alex Grima (Northen Bombers)
Brett Meredith (Northern)
Clayton Hinkley (North Ballarat)
Eddie Curnow (Geelong)
James Polkinghorne (Calder)
Jeremy Laidler (Calder)
Matt Austin (North Ballarat)
Michael Dell'Aquila (Eastern)
Nick Murphy (South Adelaide)
Peter Bonney (Swan Districts)
Simon Starling (Claremont)
Tony Armstrong (Calder Cannons)

I'd be fairly surprised if Sullivan wasn't picked up your pretty spot on with the rest of those though

Any specific numbers or routines you'd recommend?

I dont really care who gets overlooked but looking at some of these names confirms to me that bogans should not be allowed to name thier children.

cant believe 2 sets of parents were stupid enough to name thier kid Lachie.
 
I wouldn't expect Jeremy Laidler (Calder) will be overlooked come draft day. Did play in the TAC Cup winning side and took out there B + F for the year.

Good sized player who appears fairly athletic.

Myke, Tayte and Cruize are all particularly rubbish names. At least it's better than America, where almost every kid is called some variation on Aiden/Caden/Brayden/Jayden right now. Thanks Sex & the City. If my missus ever tries to name our kid after a character from that shithouse show, I'll demand an abortion for the sake of the child. If that plan falls through, the kid'll probably do it himself at some stage with a shit name like that.
 
It would be interesting to see how many people have attended the camps over the years and not got drafted. Or even an average.. e.g of the 80 that usually attend, 25 do not get drafted or rookied.
I would have thought those 25 spots were taken by guys attending the state screenings?

That's about right, actually - About 50-60 players are normally taken from draft camp.

im with you except lachie that obviously a shortened version of a real name
 
Poor man's work ethic too. Doesn't do anything when required to fulfil a defensive role and not prepared to work hard unless he's likely to win possession. Serious question marks IMO.
 
Is this just your personal opinion or do you not know the players in red therefore you think they will be overlooked???

Of course it's my personal opinion who elses would it be. I have seen a lot of them play but not all of them, the ones I haven't I have gone off some of the other learned people's opinions of them. The man asked "who do you think will miss" I told him my opinion, I hope that's OK or do you need to be a full time recruiter to have an opinion.

Don't worry mate. Godockers was just heartbroken to see Connelly's name highlighted (check his post history). :p
 
I dont understand how i ask a question about 2 ruckman who i have followed throughout the year, and then ask someone about a post regarding neither of those 2 players, then i actually get accused of being Brent Connelly?:confused:
If this was the case whats the point of members of this site asking about players, if everytime they do they get accused of being that player???

Let us make it clear - We're only accusing you of being Brent Connelly because you ARE Brent Connelly :p

You only get accused if all of your posts are about that player. For the record, I'm more thinking you're just one of his mates rather than Brent himself.
