    Giddy up.

    State media said he’s one of the best runners in the country. Playing SANFL as he did his knee a year ago. Hitting the scoreboard as a small forward this year.

      Kelsey Rypstra (North Adelaide)

      A clever small forward who measures 173cm, Rypstra was overlooked in his draft year of 2022 but is in the mix to earn an opportunity in this year. The 20-year-old has been playing senior SANFL football with North Adelaide this season and has shown some good signs, averaging 10.6 disposals, 3.2 marks, five score involvements, 3.4 tackles and 0.6 goals from five games.
      More of an In Bruges guy?

        A guy you’ve never heard of with a weird name. Should be illegal to pick up any other sort of player in this draft.

            I hinted a couple of times on X that we might pick someone from SA.
            He fits a need and has some Nick Watson type attributes up forward.

              0.6 goals from 5 games he'll fit right in.

                      It's probably a better summary.

                        I can't believe you narrowed it down to one of three football states that have solid semi-professional competitions.

                            It was on X so that is counted as getting it right.

                              No idea about the kid but a young untapped player with attributes we require is exactly where we should be at the mid season draft.
