Nope - would have to move on a player to make a spot.

Not happening at this stage.

We only have T Murray Keane and Borlase so one Rookie spot available

Pick 25 (or whatever it is by now) feels on the high end, I'd love to see something else coming back the other way, but I'm not going to lose sleep over

I heard Reid refer to it as pick 28.

I'm not losing sleep either, if it is a player you want and think nakes the team better you get it done. Especially when its so close to fine.

Would you waste Cameron on a defensive forward role though? Probably not.

Vader - can you help with your usual knowledgeable explanations please? The old "we need to make 3 changes - Pick 4, Match Welsh, Rookie Upgrade" and that's all we have space for without moving someone on

That will become 2 rookie positions when Keane or Borlase (probably Keane) is upgraded to the senior list.

We need to make a minimum 3x ND selections, less any rookie upgrades. We only have 2 list vacancies across our senior + Cat A rookie lists, so we have to upgrade a rookie to satisfy the AFL's requirement.

Those 2 rookie positions will be filled by senior list players who are contracted for 2025. They will be delisted before the ND, and re-drafted in the RD. We will be committed to re-drafting them, and won't be able to make any "live" selections in the RD (unless someone unexpectedly gazumps us).

It'd take some shuffling (the mechanics have been described here and in other places, I'm too impatient to do it) but it'd be possible to free up space for a third pick, yes.

Not without delisting or trading a contracted senior list player, other than those we're already delisting as part of the "moving to the rookie list" process.

We will have 2 picks in the ND - pick #4 and Welsh.

Yes, that's part of the shuffling I alluded to. Every noise out of the club since Peatling nominated us suggests we'll only take 2 picks. I think that's a slightly unfortunate consequence of some past list management errors, but it is what it is.

Can officially welcome ANB

Cromulant · 2024-10-07T15:06:09+1100

Well it's done now, welcome.

Sizzlepack · 2024-10-07T15:06:37+1100

Deal is done, excited to see him in the tricolours.

Danger in Texas · 2024-10-07T15:06:40+1100

So we’ve brought in Cheese and Nibbler in the past week

Did someone let a mouse into AFC headquarters

Smoooothy · 2024-10-07T15:09:42+1100

probably a bit overs, but still happy to get him

I Lost My Keays · 2024-10-07T15:09:47+1100

I reckon he will be a very handy player for us next season.

Scorpus · 2024-10-07T15:11:24+1100

The only premiership player on our list!

We certainly love to get our deals done early don't we

It's overs but it's done now and we'll get at least a couple of decent seasons out of him

Crowbling · 2024-10-07T15:13:23+1100

About 6-7 picks too high but glad we have got him.

ams4crows · 2024-10-07T15:15:27+1100

Unsure why we couldn't get like a 4th rounder back just so we had more to play with in regards to matching a Welsh bid

But in the scheme of things happy Alex is officially a Crow now

Players with AFL premiership experience
Alex Neal-Bullen

So he would be the 6th person in our main men's football department (including all players) with premiership experience

George Kramer · 2024-10-07T15:16:35+1100

To the bedwetters, see you expressed concern for no reason, the journo got it wrong, it wasn’t pick 25 it was pick 28

It is overs but part of wooing him would be guaranteeing we could get the deal done which Port couldn't.

As it stands now we weren't going to use that pick anyway.

crows dude · 2024-10-07T15:20:09+1100

Will be mid 30s by the time all academy picks occur.

it's still the 28th most available player

Redline · 2024-10-07T15:25:58+1100

He needs to be the main voice outside a reduced leadership group of maybe Dawson, Fog and one other.

We need whats left of the old guard in the playing group to start playing the team game and maybe having another Senior voice to back up the current day leaders will help.
