Newest Demon’s sport-swapping journey

Newest Demon’s sport-swapping journey…  

206cm 18 year old. There’s your developing ruckman!

Hope he has another growth spurt.

Lol. What. 

Boy oh boy I love a basketball background 

Double-barrelled surnames are annoying to shout out at a game. I’m gunna call him TWO DADS

No ruckman @ pick 13 then, you beauty 

In the absence of any footy highlights here are some Basketball Highlights.

let's make it "two sheds jackson" in memory of a noted demonlander

and let's hope he's two-times as good a ruck as that other jackson emigre 

 

The big question is how many Category B rookies is a club permitted to have on its list at any one time?

I would hope the answer is three as otherwise the club would be precluded from picking Finn Emile-Brennan as a Category B rookie if the limit was two per club.

This makes our drafting of Finn Emile-Brennan interesting as we no longer have a B rookie spot.

So do we think he will go around pick 37 or do we not intend to take.  Of course we could swap in a late pick. 

Intriguing.

Edit: correction of pick 47 should have been pick 37.

MFC ruck duo in five years time - Kalani White and Farris-White?

In addition to these six rookie-listed players, each club can include up to three additional players (now referred to as Category B rookies) on its Rookie List provided the player either:

Looks like he does not mind a bit of body contact and has well developed body shape.

Hope he turns out better than our other basket product Aaron Bradtke who looked ok but did not like body contact.

Worth a shot considering we're a bit light on for ruck depth.

He will get to learn at the feet of two of the best current ruckmen.

I have a vague recollection that the B Rookie list was reduced from 3 to 2 when the overall list sizes were cut in 2020 due to covid and sal cap reductions.  Could be wrong.

He’s a WA boy so watch out for the go home factor in a couple of year’s time.

Did you know Scott Pendlebury has one?

Has he played any football like having a kick in the backyard?

He's from Victoria and has only been in WA for a couple of years.  From the article:

"Another benefit for Farris-White, who will be moving across the country in the coming weeks, is the fact he grew up locally."
