Flynn and Bruhn confirmed in. Briggs confirmed out (or at least not announced as a debutant).

Bruhn, who?
I found the info below in one of @Presto '
Herald Sun SuperCoach Articles' in this forum.


7. Tanner Bruhn (GWS)

$157,800

AAMI Series score: 62

Bruhn only played two games due to injury last year but at the under-16 national carnival in 2018, the well-balanced midfielder danced in and out of traffic and delivered with precision on his way to being named Vic Country’s MVP.

And he’s set to bring his class to the Giants’ forward-half after a dazzling AAMI Series performance.

“He’s probably in that mould, of, I don’t want to put too much pressure on him, but Toby Greene started out his career (as) just a ball hunter. They want to get their hands on the footy, GWS coach Leon Cameron said after Bruhn’s four-goal, 62-point performance against the Swans.

The Phantom’s Post-AAMI Verdict: The Giants’ top pick looks set for early action but, despite his talent, the small-forward role pushes him down the list given the price.
