2006 AFL Rookie Draft Thread

[Jeffers1984]

Well today is the day.

I'm guessing that one of Earl Shaw or Smokey Davis will get picked up, preferably the former.

Currently we have Ed Barlow, Sam Rowe and Jack (2 talls 1 small defender) so it will be very interesting on the types we pick up.

[Triple B]

I struggle to think of any reasons why Davis would be rookied. He has shown very little in his time here and has never even once been considered a chance for senior selection.

I have nothing at all against the man, never met him, but he realistically is no chance to play senior footy with the SFC, so why rookie him at the expense of another 'smokey' who could surprise?

Unless of course he has aquired copies of the incriminating photos that have been held by Ben Mathews, Rowan Warfe and others over the years, allowing them to keep a spot
