    Our very own Dale Lewis came from a mid season draft many years ago. Wasn't a bad pick up.
    Those who have the greatest power to hurt us are those we love.

        It'd be cool if we selected Ajang Ajang...

            Next week against LOLNorf at Blundstone might decide who gets the number one pick!

              Yes. The last mid season draft back in 1992. Arguably the best mid season raft pick up ever!

                From afl.com.au:

                Ajang Ajang – East Perth
                22yo, 198cm, 96kg
                Just eight games into his WAFL career, the Sudanese big man is already turning heads. Was called upon for last year's elimination final with instant success, collecting 28 hitouts, 13 disposals, two goals. Has now become one of the WAFL's most athletic ruckmen with hitouts to advantage numbers through the roof. One of only two ruckmen set to undergo a medical assessment ahead of the Mid-Season Rookie Draft.

                  The Kyle Dunkley cup?

                    I don't think North need anymore extractors, they've got plenty already

                      Kyle Dunkley, poor man's Ryan Clarke?

                        and boy do we need those! Happy to take a project ruckman.

                        Wonder if we really want someone like this and tested the F/S rule to park Dunkley for a second pick? Be interesting now

                        Anyone have any further info on the Irish lad we trialled for a fortnight?

                              Yes that's what the article said.
