Discussion 2022: Rookie Discussion

[dylan123]

MacDonald has the higher scoring potential looking at his scores in the junior ranks by far.

Hough would have the best job security.

Soligo I fear could be straight out the door as soon as Laird is fit.

I don't know much about Soligo but he did play in both pre season games when Laird was out there. I also don't think he'll see many midfield minutes, I'd assume Keays gets the Laird spot given he seemed to be pushed out and maybe someone like Dawson.

Soligo might be competing with someone like Berry for a spot, not too just to be honest.

All 3 feel like luck of the draw but I doubt Soligo will score anything special (without knowing his junior history, just assuming what position he gets roped into).

lol, so far Ward is the only one I've noticed in these debut promo photos who hasn't been using his wrists to try and pump up them biceps, bless 'em

Not as nervous as I am about my FWD line of Dunkley, Butters, Brodie, McGoven, Xerri and Coniglio 🤣

That looks like a super fwd line Deeman1!!

Has St Kilda’s Hayes been named.

I noticed him in the confirmed rookies to play sector however cannot see anything around on social media or afl site.

I may have slightly jumped on them before the 'official' announcement when I posted that update, but saw a post from one of our member @Shannon (who I trust to do the right thing) so figured why not kill two birds with one stone and save another update.

Both have now been officially confirmed.

I seem to be the only one not having Berry in my team.
Kinda makes me nervous

Everyone else seems to have McGovern as well... but not me.

I can feel the late minute shuffle coming on... don't do it.... do it... don't do it...

 

[Bomber18]

Raining rookies!

 

[dylan123]

Any moment a back rookie will be named out of the blue....

Funny thing, I don't have McGov as well haha!
This is either very good or very bad, we shall see...

Mine is :-

Dunkley * , Heeney , Butters , Coniglio , McGovern , Brodie * / Curnow (E), Durdin

Have no idea about the JS of the cheap F rookies

 

[Zimmer]

Gould 🤗

Are you serious, has he actually been named?

I have enough injury prone players, I don't want McGovern as well. We don't know which injury prone players are going to get re-injured, so hope I picked the right ones.

Enough Mid Rookies, some Def Rookies please.

Very tempted to throw him in

I went Curnow over Xerri - hoping it pays off

I had Rachele on the mid bench, so he slots in at F6 for Xerri and a mid rookie comes in. But having a read on Mead and thinking probably not.
