    Yep. We got pick 9 for Koster. Then spent it on Jackovich...

    Barry Hall went at 20. So we took Jackovich and Ayce Cordy over Hall on two occasions.

        Would love another West running around. Will be watching Rhylee closely over the next few years.
        Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

          He's been playing school boys footy with Dunkley's brother as I understand. Already in the Calder u/16 system too. If he keeps growing he's going to be a very good sized midfielder. Hopefully his three younger brothers are cut from the same cloth.

          His top year (2018) will likely have Josh Kellett & Oliver Liberatore around the Calder squad too, so I might find myself attending even more TAC footy.

            Scary - going to be tough to fit them all in and get enough points to bid for them. Some are going to be disappointed. May need to accumulate some future picks to spend.

              Different years makes it a little easier. Rhylee is 2018. Josh & Ollie in 2019 might need some attention if they develop into elite kids.

                  SonS. There's four West boys. Hopefully together the best contested ball winning and great extractor midfield ever.

                    That helps. What it does throw up though is that all being midfielders, how do you fit them all in? Granted they are a couple of years away, but if Honeychurch, Hrovat, Dale, Hamilton, Stevens etc are all around, competition for spots when these boys het drafted is going to be hot.

                    Also, it would be great if one of these guys was a tall forward (not likely knowing their genes) or a skilled half forward as we are really going to struggle to fit them all in!

                      More of an In Bruges guy?

                        Shame, but it looks like the decision not to take him was likely the correct one.

                          No surprise there, hardly got a touch at VFL level, and I don't think he played a senior game.

                            His father was a late developer maybe there is still hope for Jayden

                              I still think this may happen. You had to see the transformation of Peter Foster to believe it. He went from an unco to a real player very quickly. Maybe it was Malthouse that bought out the best in him or the move tho CHB but the transformation was amazing.

                              Maybe one for Footscray's list next year?
                              They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                                My old man played VFA and I'm a reserves country footy hack. Sometimes it just doesn't happen unfortunately.
