Haren was taken by the swans.
C'mon, he really hasn't had an opportunity over the many years at AFL level to prove himself!!!!

So we officially got Houli too, congratulations Bachar!
Umm, Brad Miller and Tom Hislop are two questionable ones, but hey, its only the rookie list...

Geez, what a terrible RD. Miller and Hislop are pretty much guaranteed failures. Plenty of kids around that mark have turned into quality long-term players nearly on a yearly basis. "Only the Rookie list" is not really an excuse.

Hislop is a worse kick that 75% of the VFL players.
He'd be in the bottom 5% of kicks in the AFL.
Tough but nothing else, therefore a waste of space.
Certain delisting in 12 months time.

When will this club learn? I am utterly disgusted in the rookie picks absolute joke! really bad recruiting.
Agreed. Hislop will on past form has given every sign that he will never be a good flanker, midfielder, wingman or backman.
A Barden would have at least given some potential upside.
Pretty disappointed actually

Remember people, we can still Rookie list a player up until the end of the NAB Cup Grand Final. Basically we get a free trial period. So we may still yet get a young gun on our Rookie list.

I'm guessing it's a first in best dressed sort of thing.

This drafting period has left me seriously un-motivated re the RFC going forward. It's one thing to be dicked by the AFL but to have it happen by our own recruiters..... once again

According to Emma Qwayle we passed so that we could take part in the "Training Draft".
Which gives us until the end of the NAB cup 2011 to rookie a player onto our list.

Apparently we added Travis Casserly to our training squad
@AFL_JenWitham Jennifer Witham RT Correction: Travis Casserly added to Tigers' training squad, Travis Tuck & Paul Johnson to Hawks'. Can be rookied after NAB Cup #afldraft

Trav Cass back at the Tigs would be a massive story.
Any one know what he has been doing with himself. I heard a while back that he was finally injury free and playing some good footy.
