Re: Potential List Changes for the Northern Blues 2018 - Thryleon - 10-19-2018
I like velissaris. From what I've seen he kicks goals.
Sam Fisher and jesse Palmer are both rookie prospects for us i hope.

Update #4 24/11/2018
With the AFL drafts done and dusted, there are more than a few players, experienced and otherwise, now available for recruiting. It will be interesting to see how many of these guys interest the Preston side of the equation.
As I said last time, I do not expect an exodus this off-season. But there will be some. It happens.
Confirmed Departures:
None as yet. None of our guys were selected in the ND or RD.
Confirmed Additions:
[1] Kieran Collins
Height: 194 cm
Weight: 98 kg
Western Bulldogs / Dandenong Stingrays
Collins will be 21 for the 2019 season, as he is a December birth. He played a couple of years at the Bulldogs without making that much of a mark. He was a consistent VFL player, rather than an outstanding one. But given the relative lack of tall defenders on the Northern Blues list, he is a welcome inclusion.
I guess he also sees this as an opportunity to impress Carlton, who are looking for someone as gorilla minder, now Rowe is gone.
At the moment he is the only one.
Potential Departures:
[1] Josh Hill – I am feeling more confident about Hill (which means he is probably gone). Staying with us helps his long term goals and his form at the end of the season was excellent.
[2] Brendan Myers – this lad has not had the sort of year he (and we) were looking for. He was not a regular and only played in the last half of the season when our midfield was especially short. As such I am not confident that he will remain with the Baby Blues.
Potential Additions:
[1] Daniel Hanna
Height: 199 cm
Weight: 82 kg
Calder Cannons
The nephew of Mil Hanna did not get picked up by the Drug Cheats, so he is available to play where he likes. If I were Carlton, I would be getting the 18-year-old down to NB’s training.
Hanna is tall, but plays more of a running game. Kicking is his weakness at this point, being unreliable (not unlike his Uncle Mil’s). He is very skilful and mobile for a big man.
[2] Mitchell Podhajski
Height:
Weight:
Calder Cannons
Ignored for the 2nd year in a row, but having converted himself from a defender into a strong midfielder, I would look to providing this lad with a home. I thought he was unlucky not to be drafted.
Carlton do have a few Zone lads, of which two, Brasier and Wild, have a small profile. I find it unlikely that they will NOT be with the Northern Blues in 2019. Lamb is also a chance, depending on how reacts to being ignored by Carlton.
Palmer and Fisher have already signed on for 2019, as has Penrith. With 1 spot available on Carlton's rookie list, they are in the running.
Other names, like Hartung. have been rumoured to be of interest, but I really don't have any information to suggest many of these guys with AFL experience may be applicable.
