Position 2026 Rookies

[Jiska]

is Cumming on the bubble this week?

Too expensive at this stage of the season IMO

 

[jdstorm]

$135k mid only

Has been playing FF in the VFL.
Unlikely to be relevant.

 

[Veer Right]

Liam Henry (forward - 160,700) was good to the eye last night. Teammates were looking for him. Looks fit which has been a large issue in his time at the saints.

It's 2026, so he'll score 90+ next week and then 22 on the bubble.

 

[Scythe]

Should see this guy at AFL level over the next couple of weeks. $113.5k forward

Holy shitballs, I completely missed Rosas

 

[Hawkboy62]

Holy shitballs, I completely missed Rosas

Me too. But I've got Lombard who is about to break out! Has been a slow burn, a bit like the 'Pou who is now 295k with a BE of 0.

Can I just gloat and say I've got him. What a great job he did yesterday......sitting on my bench.

Same

The trick was to trade in really bad rookies like Fawcett so you're forced to field Rosas

 

[HeHateMe]

Yep good idea, think it's time to boot Flanders and bring in a terrible fwd rook so I can field Rosas

haha same

but I've also had the pleasure of having Lombard, Rogers and Fawcett, so any gloating over Rosas feels hollow

what if you already traded in Fawcett and still had Rosas on the bench?

If just the one downgrade this week it's gotta be Cumming yeah?

And a shout out to Duursma, first rookie to $400k! Started higher of course as pick 1 but he's been a model of consistency in a shite side.

 

[Makeshift Park]

Anything happening in the western leagues to give us cause for optimism on the rookie front?

Any chance of Leon Kickett's AFL debut, for instance?

And surely Sid Draper can't be far away?

 

[TasSixer]

Rookie stock looks dry next week, need some debuts

Sid Draper is miles away.

Only had 9 possies up to 3/4 time on the weekend. Not sure how he did in the last qtr.

Has been amazing! It was well worth paying up for.

Who are you fielding out of the following (bolded is who I have on field as of right now)

Sellwood, Lai or Caroll?
Retschko, Angry Anderson or Arty Jones?

It really is a flip of the coin, isn't it?

For me, I like Sellwood and Anderson ....just think Anderson bounces back

 

[Pathetic Pittman]

went to hawks-pies, I’m less confident Anderson bounces back

all just opinions of course

Jones for me

 

[Thuggee_Cult]

What is McKenna’s JS like?

Right now I think he is the best of a bad bunch of rookies TBH.

Burton passed the eye test , I thought he looked composed against Eagles with ball in hand but I think his role will bring up Kako like numbers.

Cumming too expensive

I really love what Edward’s brings to the table as Swnas fan, however he is in a pure defensive role.

Anderson looked to be playing in the graveyard (half fwd)?

Im pessimistic

Long back in and taking 67% cbas killed him
