Hopefully Lambert can make an impact next year, dominated in the VFL this year.

Nige

I'd expect Lambert to show enough to get a promotion at some point during the year.

Arnot will have to work hard to get his elevation and Tank will probably be there in case something goes wrong (LTI or something).

Don't think we'll see Short or Castagna for a year or two unless they really impress and go full Miles.  :P

Short is a very smart pick-up, he suffered a fractured jaw and missed the u/18 carnival but he's a super smart user of the ball and has excellent speed & agility. Closest thing to Robbie Gray in the draft pool, he's also very adept on both sides of his body.

Lambert is a little gun, should have been selected last year but was overlooked for some reason. Plug & play and it indicates we are finally waking up to the talent in the state leagues.

Castagna is more of a speculative pick and will take time, but we are tageting speedy mids which is good. Good luck to the kid.

Think we probably did this last year as well, picking up Gordon and Lloyd after excellent SANFL/VFL seasons :P

Get on the Kane Lambert hype train before it's too late.  8)

Yes, I should have acknowledged that but prior to 2013 our only state league pick-up in 5 years was Nahas. The club is learning a trick or two about succeeding in the deep end of the draft.

Forgot to mention Stephenson but at 30 years of age he doesn't count.

But was there any doubt?

Gotta say, even I'm kinda happy about this. Cotchin and Richmond go together like PB & J :p
