Great wrap for Jake Aarts in the Prospectus 2020

Jake Aarts (25 yo, 177 cm, 75kg)
  • Averaged 84 SC in the 2019 VFL (above average for a general fwd).
  • Rated elite for forward 50 ground ball gets, forward 50 tackles and score involvements.
  • Above average for forward 50 marks, goals and score assists.
  • Ranked No.1 in the Tigers VFL side for score assist, fourth for goals
While I'm at it, here's the wrap on Thomson Dow (18 yo, 182 cm, 72 kg)
  • Brother of the Blue's Paddy Dow
  • Produced consistent numbers in the NAB league (80 DT and 102 SC) but underwhelmed at the 2019 AFL U18C (41 DT and 48 SC).

  • In the NAB league, won 23+ disposals in 4/5 games and kicked one goal per game.
  • Not much of a tackler, averaged less than two tackles in the 17 games covered by CD

Does anyone know if Lachie Sholl is in the frame for selection in the near future?
I don't know, but useful info below.

Exert from HS, Adelaide definitely in a rebuild.
We know we are in a transition period. So we are looking to get as many games as we can into guys like Chayce Jones, Ned McHenry Wil Hamill and Andrew McPherson. We haven’t debuted many players recently and we have a gap there, so we want to upskill players ........we will play those young guys and they will improve out of sight ............


Thanks to @Professor

I reckon he will be back in not too long unless he has an injury. Surely they will get some games into him even maybe as a fwd for a game or two as he is pretty much the best contested mark in the squad already (sad but true)
