Disappointing.

jeez matty , how'd you let that one slip by ???? Great reward for a great bloke and hard working AND talented footballer. Hope he absolutely jumps out of the gates at Moorabbin and we never have to see him out at Cranbourne. Of course , any games he DOES play at the Scorpions will make it his 4th VFL club. Good luck Rixy , well deserved.

Haha, horrible brain fart on my part. Maybe I'd considered him a SANFL player already in the back of my mind. Well, this thread is meaningless now, but I'm still disappointed no young VFL players didn't get a look in. Anyway, well done Rixy.

Hes worked hard and deserves it. When he was at Port for a few years he always looked like he had the ability, Im spewing the Hawks let him go!! I think a number of VFL players will go in the rookie draft. Definately

He was never going to the SANFL!! Good luck to the boy, he deserves the chance, but I am spewing!

Yes the Rookie draft should see a few VFL Senior guys put on that list. I thought J Podsiadly might have been a chance at the National Draft, but I think they decided on Mark West instead. Still might be rookied (can they start him on the list if West is still recovering from a knee reco?)

Isn't Podsy about 24 now? Too old for the rookie draft.... Hopefully a few kids get a crack though.

Really hope that Chad O'Sullivan from our club is given an opportunity at AFL level, very talented player and great bloke off the field as well.
