The player we should throw a lifeline to (in the rookie draft)....

is Leroy Jetta.

IMO, He is more than capable at AFL level. But like many other players, I think his attitude, and possibly commitment, has been the issue.

A second chance could change that.

He has x-factor. He lays hard tackles. He chases. He is fkn quick. And he can kick goals. Forward line pressure is what this team has lacked in recent years.

Sure, he is no Didak, nor is he Leon Davis. But he does carry some traits that those guys had.

He is 25 years old. And he has plenty of years in him if he puts the commitment in.

I think he is worth the risk as a rookie selection.
Yeah I agree good suggestion

Of that list Membrey is the only decent risk.
Burbury?...pls Dave tell me you having a laugh?
Jetta has some pace sure, very very bad disposal skills in a team that requires good disposers of the ball.
All this may be summed up in one word - CHARACTER - and if that is not worth developing, nothing is.

Didn't we bring in Greenwood for the run with role? also with Macaffer back in less than 12 months why would we want 3 taggers on our list?

I doubt we'll be looking at any of these guys, time for Hine to step up again.
I thought Greenwood was your in and under clearance player.
Hine said he'd cover Macaffer's role in part

There's no one who standouts from that list I would desperately want.

Only Membrey may be worth a look but that's all.

Agree. Leigh Brown and Luke Ball were complete disasters!
