Rookie Draft Twitter

Re: Rookie Draft Twitter

Didn't we have to pick up Ogle?

or is that already calculated in the pass? (ie last years rookies)

confusing but i don't think we have 7 rookies.

58. StK - Steve Gaertner
Pretty hyped up on the forums last year.
60. Geel - Ranga Ediriwickrama
Isn't this guy an absolute gun? How'd he slip?

i'm not sure re Ranga,
however i do remember him being tied to Geelong, ie NSW scholarship pick like Ogle is to the WB's. So they had priority pick on him.

Ogle was already listed as a 5th round rookie pick to us in the list I saw this morning before the draft started.

Re: Rookie Draft Twitter

Aha,

i see know we have Chris Ogle at pick 72, why didn't we just pick him up at our first pass.

weird.

Mulligan, Shaw, White, Daniels, Picken, Ogle

6 Rookies

Plus our two Fijians. Go Inoke.

Re: Rookie Draft Twitter

Yes, we took him with pick 72

That's what confused me. Why would we do that after passing one or two rounds? I thought once you passed that was it.

Re: Rookie Draft Twitter

Does the salary change per round like the National Draft?

Pick 69. COLL L. Keefe (3 yr non-reg)

Interesting ... anyone know anything about him ... only Collingwood would pull of a pick like this

What does '3 yr non-reg' mean?

They haven't played footy for a club for 3 years.

Re: Rookie Draft Twitter

Really a club could see a future Buddy Franklin and develop him without any of the other clubs geting access to him. A good way to get a young gun cheap. But it could also effect their development.

OK, thanks.



So it's a bit like the players who came back from WW1-IIRC if they'd been OS for three years they got to choose which club they played with.

I guess so. Slightly off topic, Ben Cousins is paying for himself already. Apparently the Richmond Membership department is being flooded atm with new members.
