    Re: Rookie Draft 2014

    A few TAC Cup players that I am interested in for the RD include:-

    Daniel Capiron - looking at some of my notes from the various finals games, I like how he moves and seemed to have good ball use. Might already have addressed it though in the ND.

    Bill Gowers - is one GVGjr mentioned to me, and he is a good sized midfielder with some AFL attributes.
    Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?

      Funnily enough, I think Roarke Smith's highlight reel is my favourite out of all our new players. Looks very smooth, confident, fast and has good lateral vision and spatial awareness. Hope he makes it. Though I suppose those marks from young Toby WERE pretty hard to go past.

        They run Maribyrnong pretty much as a sports school these days.
        They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

          They are also getting some good marks there too. Amazing what happens when a school gets a bit of TLC.

            Bevo pre-game saying Roarke wants to go around again and Bevo himself wants to see him go around and impact at AFL level.

              Bevo also said he thought he will be a very good player as he has lots of potential.

                He's AFL standard when fit and firing and is costing us only base salary (presumably) until he recovers. I think keeping Roarke is the right decision.

                  He also plays in a position that'll probs have 2 to 3 openings in a season of two.
