SANFL players taken in National / PreSeason / Rookie Draft

[JK]

Good on Tom Jonas from Norwood for having a chance to train with the Power, was very impressed with the lad in season 2010...

trifle surprised that he was rather than georgiou but good on all sanfl players training with afl clubs

Tommys disposal is better I think, so in an AFL sense he would offer more of a defend/attack option than George I'd say .. Both great lads and always welcome at the Parade, but best of luck at trying to play higher levels if desired.

From the Eagles:
Brodie Smith is a beauty
Jared Polec will go, but not entirely sold on whether he'll make it.
Angus Rowntree would be a reasonable chance with a late pick.
Allmond was average early, better last half of the year. Doubt he will be drafted.
Will be some interest in some of our u/18's that GWS haven't snatched yet.

Don't know whether there is too many others in the Eagles senior side.

Luke Jarrad would have to be close to getting a rookie spot I would think, getting on now I know, but playing great footy!

Too much of a 'flashy' player.

Can an Eagles supporter tell me what chances Zac Fitzgerald has of getting drafted? Grew up with the fella and would be interested to see how he would go.

The Mock Draft on the AFL website has him going at like 60 odd to Carlton.

I heard on the grapevine that Ian Callinan is training with the Crows?

Also training with another club, BP, keeping his options open.

Well, as Dutchy rightfully pointed out early in the piece, it could well be a case of a rookie contract from the Crows being of less monetary value than his current situation with the other club you mentioned there CK.

Central would be pretty happy with this one not losing any players in the National Draft.

Is the March draft going ahead this year where AFL teams can replace long term injured players.

It's certainly not happening this year mate.

Not sure about next year though.

Not so much a draft as I understand but a week or two out from the start of the season AFL clubs under certain conditions e.gg long term injured players / players injured during the pre-season can top their list up by selecting 1 replacement player each so the fear for SANFL clubs is that a fit and ready experienced player including ex AFL players could be picked up by an AFL club leaving the local club struggling to find a replacement for that player so close to the start of the season.

A typical type of arrogant AFL rule where they don't give a flying shit about any other club or comp outside theirs.

Weren't there a couple of instances this season when an SANFL club pulled a player from a country club mid season to help cover an injury?

Always happens, but people wont say anything bad about the SANFL and would rather bag the AFL every chance they get, so no one has mentioned that yet

I'd never really stopped to think about it, but thats actually a fair call.
