    Why? If the recruiters were REALLY good they would have taken these blokes with their first pick, not taken a fly on them at the end of the draft!
    What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

    Without wishing to be a smart alec is that necessarily true?

    Yes drafting's a game of chance and risk, but isn't it an accepted aspect of drafting strategy that if you feel you have relatively privileged knowledge of a player of interest and that he's reasonably likely to be available later on in a draft then it's prudent not to 'go too early' and attempt to maximize your earlier selections on more 'proven/credentialed' draft candidates?

    In the very first post of this thread it outlines the eligibility criteria (for 2011 anyway).

    To be eligible to be nominated for the award, a player must be younger than 21 years of age on January 1 of the award year and have played 10 or fewer senior games before the beginning of the season. A player who is suspended during the season is not eligible to win the award, however is still eligible for nomination.
    I can't find (after 3 seconds searching) how many games they played, but i think all three will be eligible again next year.

    Hooray!

    Libba - 16 games

    Wallis - 6

    Dahlhaus - 11

    So only Wally is eligible next year of your three mentioned.

    Libba and Dahlhaus don't qualify and Wallis does.
