Rookies on the radar (<$200k) this week:
1) M Clisby (Def $96k) New coach, new opportunities and new to my SC team. Clisby is a 23yo mature age recruit brought into the team by Neil Craig, and after the team’s improved performance followed by an unbelievable (not sure if I believe it now) win, I can’t see Clisby going anywhere in a hurry. I know Motts thinks his JS is poor, but I can tell you now… I disagree, and if named this week he’ll be joining my group of superstars. His first game yielded 24 disposals and 71 points. Then this week another 18 disposals, 5 marks, 3 tackles and 60 points.
2) J Daniher (Fwd $154k) Smokin’ Joe may have been rested this week when up against Cox/Naitanui, but Hirdy said before the game that he would be back quickly. If Crameri’s injury is half as bad as it looked, then he’ll be back sooner than expected…. I’m guessing this week!
3) L Hunter (Mid $109k) The father-son has two under his belt for the Doggies. In his first run, Hunter looked great and had 19 disposals, 5 marks, 3 tackles and a goal resulting in 86 points. Unfortunately in his second run he got the green vest and only scored the 8 points.
4) B McKenzie (Mid 115k) McKenzie can play midfield or as a running half-back, and played two games early last year to get a taste of the big time. McKenzie had the green vest in his first run, but still had 12 disposals including 5 marks for only 26 points. This week he had 19 disposals including 7 marks and 3 tackles bearing 89 points.
5) M Arnot (Mid 115k) He’s only played one, and just brought home a lazy 85 points. I like this kid!!!! Not because of his run, not because he can use the ball, not because he’s a good fella, but because he’s from my club. In fact, our club is zoned for Tigers players to come out to see the kids which they did last week, Matty actually requested a swap so he could come back to the club that started it all for him last week. He came out with Steven Morris and Matt Dea and I just happened to snap a poor-quality photo of Matty at our club talking to the little tackers last week.
6) B Wilson (Def $115k) Blayne might have got dropped last week, but I’m tacking him on to the end of the rookie review one last time as I think he’s every chance of getting another call-up, and following scores of 89 and 56, he’s worth keeping an eye out for.

I agree with u bs, clibsy won’t get a 23 to at training collecting the easy money Craig likes him, and he will play
I am sure Clisby was on 71 points at the end of the dogs game, but got scaled back to 60. Fingers crossed lad plays out season.
Look out for X. Richards & / or S. Tunbridge getting named for 2nd games this week. Both are D/F DPP which helps those like me who have Staker but no DPP link. If nothing else, handy loophole switch even if they are not playing. Any news on GWS D/F DPP who was coming back from injury?
Jed Lamb, I brought him last week at $96K for Flosstone and he should hold his spot in the Swans team for a while.
