Jackson Nelson – for those who still have him, he’s out again.

Jordan de Goey – Rookie for pies
Liam McBean, Corey Ellis, Connor Menadue, Todd Elton – Rookies for the Tiges
Dean Towers – Rookie for swans
Sam Colquhoun, Karl Amon – Rookies for port

Rookies

Jason Ashby ESS Def $201k AF, $249.5k
Likely to expensive for his position.

Kyle Langford ESS Fwd $250k AF, $142.9k RDT
Likely one more for RDT, you will know if he is sub or not as Friday match

Matthew Dick
CARL Def, $120k AF, $124.6k RDT
Hasnt shown a heap, but is a cheap def target. Will he avoid the sub?

Jordan de Goey
COL MID $267k AF, $202.9k RDT
Likely too expensive for his JS, and his previous output was 13!

Liam McBean
RICH Fwd $120k AF, $124.6k RDT
Replacing Griffiths after solid effort in the seconds, one of him or Vickery to make the team If only he still had that Ruck status.

Other rookies on Tiges extended bench are Corey Ellis Mid $261k AF, $167.9k RDT Connor Menadue Mid $198k AF, $117.9k RDT, Todd Elton Fwd $120k AF, $124.6k RDT See which ones make the cut tomorrow, if any.

Karl Amon
PORT Mid $120k AF, $124.6K RDT
Yet again on the extended bench. Kid ripped it up in preseason comp. Will he break in

Sam Colquhoun
PORT Def $219k AF, $197.7k RDT
Solid Def that has been in the system for a bit, check if he makes the team tomorrow.

Daniel McKenzie DEF MID $252k AF, $117.9k RDT
Another RDT only rookie solid Saints defender on the bubble, kept his spot.

Billy Stretch
MELB Mid $179k AF, $117.9k RDT
Held his spot, this would be the week if you want him in Fantasy.

Henry Schade
GC DEF $150k AF, $124.6k RDT
Popular rookie downgrade option kept his spot. He is a Key Position Player so dont expect huge outputs. Slow burn rookie.

Sam Blease GEE Fwd/Mid $183 AF, 191.9k RDT, Bailey Dale WB Fwd $160k AF, $117.9k RDT, Liam Dawson BRIS Mid $163k AF, $117.9k RDT
Are other rookies that are named.

Other Thoughts

Wallis back worries me about Pickens role and output for the Dogs.

Frawley inclusion should do nothing else but improve the stocks of Birchall and Gibson owners

Deledio could be a late out. as there is some doubt.

Steele Sidebottom didn’t make the cut, but all reports he is close to returning. Same goes for Ollie Wines.

Last but not least, Kane Cornes is undoubtedly DT Royalty. This year the Champ announced his retirement. He announced he
will pull the Pin after playing Richmond round 8 for his 300th. DT wise he has been a proven performer who hasn’t
averaged below 90 since 2005! Well done mate.
