Position 2025 Rookies

Just a note, Ben Camporeale is a looooooong way off. Doubt we see him till the 2nd half of the season.

Edit: He only played only the 2nd half after coming back from injury.

I still remember Stewart's knee injury from a few years ago.

Cats said he was out for 5-6 weeks and he only ended up missing one week. I traded him out and upon his return after 1 week he pumped out 100+

Don't trust them at all when it comes to injury disclosures.

Me too. Horrible. Even copped the 18 he scored in Round 1.

Tsatas didn't last long

Interesting these two are listed as "must haves".

I have various trade iterations planned for this week that include those two, but it doesn't seem all that certain that they'll get a continuous string of games before they've earned enough?

What do you reckon?

Isn't Pickett back after this weekend? What does that mean for Henderson?

Happy to update the list as people see fit.

COS perhaps a consider?

Henderson will string games together. Plenty of other spuds to drop first. Is hungry, mature aged and playing well.

Was it Woewodin who had that horrific turnover bouncing the ball in the middle leading to the McKercher goal? Reckon that's worth a banishment to the VFL for a spell and Spargo/Sharp become the sub for Kossie.

Yes ....he was a late in, and it appears an early out this week

As a North supporter, I'm absolutely loving what FOS has done in his two games. On that basis his JS is very high, but since his contributions haven't translated to SC scores, it's probably best to trade him out and grab a cheap negative BE rookie that you haven't got.

Out this week with a finger injury. Apparently back after the bye.

Perfect

This is the type of coaching we encourage, space them out

Exactly, bubble boy in round 7

What about the cretins who give rookies a couple of games late season when we're out of trades and ruining them for next year.

Fire them into the sun, imo

I'm seeing Coaches trading out rookies on the bubble ......can someone explain the logic, because I'm flabbergasted

Rookies (BE)

D: Prior(-12) COS(-53) Reid(-10) Trainor (-10)
M: NOD(-75) Lash(-52) Lindsay(-75) Knevitt (-56) Tsatas(-21) Hewett(-41) Hastie(-8)
R: Boyd
F: SPP(0) Davidson(-47) Stone(-39) Kako(-12) Paton (-35)

Hastie/Paton/Stone/Prior may make way for Bice/CHall/Clohesy types next week.

Love Hastie to get another crack. Thought the kid was good.

Cheers. Was looking at cutting losses early on either one of Prior, Trainor, Reid and bring in COS. Looks like it's much of a muchness. Bice for one of the others next week. Want to really avoid having a stale rookie sitting on bench all season with no cash gen. Prior, Reid, and Trainor all look like being that.

Fml and I was going to trade FOS too.

It depends mate on whether you see a rookie as a must have and good scorer like a Lindsay compared to say a fos who is on the bubble but has a break even of 19 already and isn’t a big possession winner.

I’m going to hold Tatts

Finger not too serious

Bye means he’s prob only missing a week

If he increases his percentage of game time should start to score pretty well

Cleary scored 118.

I reckon he'll be straight into the best 22 after the Swans' bye. Mainly as a small forward, but probably also rotating through the midfield. $124.1k forward.

Is it worth the value of a trade though ? .....I'm quite confident, if it was R16, with dwindling trades, we wouldn't pull the trigger on that trade

Less scope for cash gen in round 16 and less time to cash in though.

Definitely pays to be conservative with rookie corrections as the season goes on, but at the start it's crucial to have the right rookies IMO.

That being said, I traded Prior as a structural correction, but all other rookie trades I've done have been because the incumbents have been dropped or will be dropped in the next few weeks.
