KFC SuperCoach Rookie Bible: Every potential cash cow for season 2020

A number of rookies are locked in for a Round 1 debut. But which youngsters should we pick in KFC SuperCoach? We've profiled more than 90 of the year's top SuperCoach cheapies to help finalise your team. 

The 2020 KFC SuperCoach rookie crop has raised eyebrows after very few prominent options presented themselves in the pre-season.

And some cash cows that we were banking on are unlikely to be playing AFL footy in Round 1.

Which rookies will play, and more importantly, who should we select in our SuperCoach sides?

Don’t worry if you haven’t done any rookie research, our Rookie Bible has done all the hard work for you.

See every pre-season score and U18 and state league numbers of nearly 100 SuperCoach rookie candidates.

ADELAIDE

Ned McHenry $123,900 MID

Marsh Series scores: 37, DNP

Adelaide’s mass exodus should ensure McHenry gets  senior opportunities, and he looms as a possible Round 1 debutant. McHenry is a strong tackler as a pressure forward who can move into the midfield, with a back injury sidelining him for two months last year. He returned with aplomb in the SANFL finals series, including an impressive four-goal haul in a semi-final. Only played the second half of their opening Marsh clash, scoring 37 points from just 42 per cent game time and was named as an emergency for the Crows' second game.

Verdict: Has proved his scoring is up to scratch but he won’t do us much good playing in the SANFL. A midfield bench option if selected.

Harry Schoenberg $117,300 MID

Marsh Series scores: DNP, DNP

Schoenberg was an impressive SuperCoach scorer at Under-18 level, averaging 122 points at the national championships for South Australia and taking out their MVP award. Another who should benefit from a youth-first approach, but it’s a tough midfield to break into. While he missed out on Marsh Series selection, Schoenberg was one of the better players on the ground in the Crows-Power U23 trial match.

Verdict: A lot to like, but he didn't feature in either Marsh clash. One to look at in-season.

Billy Frampton $165,400 FWD

Marsh scores: 54, DNP

The tall forward crossed from Alberton to West Lakes in the trade period in search of opportunity, which he could get after the departure of Josh Jenkins. The forward can also pinch-hit in the ruck, which could help him surpass his lean 43.5 point average from his two senior games last season. Posted scores of 141, 145, 167 and 175 in the SANFL. Was utilised in the ruck in his first game as a Crow, scoring 54 points and outshadowing fellow forward teammate Elliot Himmelberg. But both were left out against the Suns.

Verdict: Too expensive and unlikely to play.

Fischer McAsey $184,400 DEF

Marsh Series scores: DNP, 47

McAsey played at both ends at under-18 level but is set to play as an intercept defender for the Crows. The No.6 draft pick has impressed in match simulation and new coach Matthew Nicks says he is in the frame for a Round 1 debut. He was solid when called upon in Marsh 2, collecting 12 touches, 47 points and booting a goal. The Phantom has set his sights on the talented youngster.

Verdict: Probably too pricey for what he will produce, but his job security appears sound – unlike many defensive options.

Jordan Butts $123,900, DEF

Marsh Series scores: 55, DNP

The second-year defender earned Marsh 1 selection over McAsey and didn’t look out of place, collecting 12 disposals and 55 points as the third tall in defence. Butts was drafted as a top-ager in the 2018 rookie draft and averaged 16 disposals, five intercepts and 74 points in the SANFL last season. However, McAsey took his place in their next pre-season game.

Verdict: Was in the running for a spot on the bench in our defence until he was replaced.

Shane McAdam $123,900 FWD

Marsh Series scores: 23, DNP

A buzz rookie of the 2019 pre-season after being on-traded from Gold Coast as a mature-aged pre-draft access pick, McAdam had an interrupted first season at AFL level. He is another Crow who could feature early in 2020 after averaging 66 points and 1.6 goals per game in the SANFL last season. However, he struggled in their first Marsh hitout, kept to just four disposals and 23 points from 67 per cent game time.

Verdict: If his performance against the Dees is anything to go by, he can’t be trusted. Pass.

Ben Davis $123,900 FWD

Marsh Series scores: 55, 43

The Crows medium forward broke through for his debut AFL game last season, scoring just 22 points. But new coach Matthew Nicks has mentioned his name among those likely to receive opportunities this year. Didn’t set the world on fire in either of their Marsh Series games but hit the scoreboard with three goals.

Verdict: Firming as a Round 1 starter but don’t expect strong scoring in his role.

Ben Crocker $152,000 FWD

Marsh Series scores: 59, 56

The former Pie received an AFL lifeline after being a surprise pick in last year’s rookie draft. Playing as a small forward at Collingwood, Crocker averaged less than 45 SuperCoach points in 26 games. Could a change of scenery see Crocker thrive? His first two games in Crows colours yielded solid returns, collecting 18 touches and a goal against the Suns in Marsh 2.

Verdict: A rookie I had immediately written off from the outset, we may have to have a look at Crocker given his job security and the lack of forward options presenting themselves.

Kieran Strachan $123,800 RUCK

Marsh Series scores: DNP

Strachan is one step closer to a senior debut given Sam Jacobs is no longer ahead of him. If an injury strikes to No.1 ruck Reilly O’Brien, the mature bodied ruckman is likely to be called on.

Verdict: Barring injury to Reilly O'Brien, pass.

BRISBANE LIONS

Deven Robertson $117,300 MID

Marsh scores: DNP, 61

A SuperCoach gun of the future, Robertson broke Sam Walsh’s disposal record at the under-18 national championships, averaging 30 disposals and 128 points. The issue will be sneaking into that stacked Lions midfield. Surprisingly, experienced recruit Cam Ellis-Yolmen was dropped for the youngster for Marsh 2. He put his SuperCoach capabilities in the spotlight, recording 11 touches, five tackles and 62 points in just 63 per cent game time.

Verdict: A lock if playing, but it’s a big if. They played 24 men in Marsh 2, and Robertson may be one of the unlucky pair that slide out.

Brandon Starcevich $147,700 DEF/MID

Marsh scores: 40, 61

The young Lion is roaring entering his third season. Injury has kept him to five games since being taken with pick No.18 in the 2017 draft, but he has been one of Brisbane’s biggest improvers in the pre-season as he hunts a Round 1 berth. Is fighting for the final spot in the Lions backline and did his chances no harm against the Power, finishing with eight touches and 40 points in a half. He played a full game in Marsh 2 and while didn’t find much of the footy, still scored 61 from 11 touches.

Verdict: Need to be 100 per cent sure he is playing at that price, and there is enough uncertainty to be sceptical. If he is named, he will be difficult to pass up.

Sam Skinner $111,400 FWD

Marsh scores: DNP

Skinner has endured three ACL setbacks in his short career and hasn’t played since his first game in 2017. With luck finally on his side, the tall forward is pushing for a Round 1 berth, notably booting three goals and pinch-hitting in the ruck in an intra-club match as part of their ‘best’ side. The 22-year-old may not be as volatile as usual tall forward rookies given his mature body, averaging 85 points per game last season in the NEAFL.

Verdict: One who could crack in the first half of the season, but didn’t play in the Marsh Series.

Brock Smith $117,300 DEF

Marsh scores: DNP

The tough defender has been given the No.1 guernsey for his first AFL season – could this mean an early debut? Smith averaged 101 points at NAB League level and may feature at some point during the year.

Verdict: Odds are against him with heavy competition in Brisbane’s defence.

Ely Smith $123,900 FWD/MID

Marsh scores: 18, DNP

This young bull certainly has the size to make an impact at senior level and averaged 88 points in the NEAFL last season playing through the midfield and up forward. The 19-year-old faces a tough ask cracking into the Lions midfield, and played just 33 per cent gametime against the Power.

Verdict: Should get a look in during the year but don't put him in your starting side.

Deven Robertson is a ball magnet. Picture: Steve Pohlner

Ely Smith is also hoping to find a spot in the Lions midfield.

CARLTON

Tom Williamson $146,300 DEF

Marsh scores: 52, DNP

Williamson loomed as a potential cash cow last year at a slightly more expensive price, but scored a cumulative 77 points from two games before injury struck. If he can recapture the form he began his career with – averaging 68.8 points in his first four games – he is worth a look. Performed well in a recent internal trial against the Pies and scored 52 points from 12 touches in Marsh 1, before being dumped for Marsh 2. However, an injury to defender Caleb Marchbank leaves the door ajar..

Verdict: Probably just outside the Blues' best 22 but is worth considering if named in Round 1.

Sam Philp $121,800 MID

Marsh scores: 7, DNP

The Blues pounced on Philp earlier than expected in last year’s draft and the speedy youngster could add another dimension to Carlton’s midfield. His teammate Sam Walsh gave him a wrap, saying he is one of the young players putting his hand up for selection and that he is “really exciting with his speed and power.” Failed to reach double figures in 26 per cent game time in Marsh 1.

Verdict: A pump up from the Rising Star is notable – watch for a debut during the year.

Tom De Koning $123,900 RUCK

Marsh scores: 39, 42

De Koning was picked for both of the Blues' Marsh Series games and injuries to Charlie Curnow and Harry McKay will help his chances of getting games early. De Koning averaged 39.5 points from his two AFL games in 2018 with an injury interrupted year and Carlton’s settled tall forwards keeping him on the outer. His first Marsh outing was encouraging, tallying eight hitouts and booting a goal from his four touches from a touch over 50 per cent gametime. Very similar game in Marsh 2, registering 42 points and a goal in 35 per cent TOG.

Verdict: Any playing ruck rookie is a bonus – watch list.

COLLINGWOOD

Darcy Cameron $123,900 RUCK/FWD

Marsh scores: 127, DNP

Cameron joined the Magpies during the trade period after playing one game in three seasons at the Swans. The Pies insisted at the time that Cameron could play forward in the same team as Brodie Grundy, but a forward line with both Cameron and giant Mason Cox seems unlikely. Played as the Pies' No.1 ruck in Grundy’s absence in Marsh 1 and was outstanding, finishing with 12 disposals, 20 hitouts, five contested marks and two goals on his way to a monster score of 127 points – more than any player on the ground. Of course, his emphatic performance was rewarded by being dropped for Marsh 2.

Verdict: A performance like that is impossible to ignore, but so is being left out of their final practice game. May be worth picking as an R3 as he should play at some point in 2020, but Round 1 seems unlikely.

Can Darcy Cameron force his way into Collingwood's team?

John Noble $215,400, DEF

Marsh scores: 79, 73

With rookie options dropping like flies in defence, Noble has come from the clouds as our saviour. The assured Pies defender, selected in the mid-season draft last year, featured in their finals side and has produced two scores in the 70s across half-back in the Marsh Series. Noble has posted just one score below 50 in his five senior games to date and averaged 96 points in the SANFL before being picked up last year. The 22-year-old appears to have locked in a spot as a trusted ball-user out of defence.

Verdict: The perfect Stephen Hill alternative, with greater job security than cheaper option Lachie Ash. Should make decent cash and be a reliable on-field scorer.

Jay Rantall $117,300 MID

Marsh scores: 34, DNP

The former Australian junior basketballer thrived in his first year of full-time footy at U18 level, averaging 122 SuperCoach points in the NAB League as an inside midfielder. Rantall has taken out both of Collingwood’s pre-season time-trials and should score well if he cracks into the Pies midfield. The elite runner scored 34 points in under a quarter of footy in the Pies' first Marsh clash.

Verdict: Tough ask breaking into that side, but if he does he is very tempting. An option during the year.

Tyler Brown $123,900 MID

Marsh scores: 65, 35

The younger brother of teammate Callum, Tyler Brown collected 16 disposals in the Pies' first Marsh game at an elite 87 per cent efficiency playing on a wing, scoring 63 points. The 19-year-old averaged 15 touches and 74 points in the VFL in his first season on the Pies list. Was a lot quieter in Marsh 2.

Verdict: A likely type who will make his debut in Round 1. Chuck him on your midfield bench.

Mark Keane $123,900 DEF

Marsh scores: 86, DNP

The Irishman from county Cork thrived in the absence of Darcy Moore in defence in Marsh 1, posting 86 points from 14 disposals and reading the play well. Keane averaged 56 points and six intercept possessions per game for Collingwood’s VFL in 2019 – his first season playing Aussie Rules. Was dropped for Marsh 2 with Moore slotting back in.

Verdict: Injuries could open the door for the young Irishman. Keep on your radar.

Trent Bianco $117,300 DEF

Marsh scores: 13, DNP

Bianco was plucked much later than expected on draft night, with the Oakleigh Chargers’ captain taken by the Pies at pick No.45. The outside ball-winner is pinpoint with his disposal and averaged 18 disposals and 99 points per game at the national championships.

Verdict: Like Rantall, the odds aren’t stacked in his favour. Watch list.

John Noble has become a key part of Collingwood's defence.

ESSENDON

Mitch Hibberd $114,400 MID

Marsh scores: DNP

Hibberd loomed as one of the most profitable rookies until he was sidelined for six weeks with a knee injury, interrupting his first pre-season at the Bombers . He averaged 128 points per game in the VFL as an inside midfielder last season and could assist an area that is lacking at the Bombers. Hibberd didn’t feature in either Marsh matchup.

Verdict: A must-have when he breaks into the Bomber side, and should sooner rather than later. 

Jacob Townsend $222,900 FWD

Marsh Series score: 61, 71 Marsh average: 66

A midfield role was mooted for the premiership Tiger at his new club, lacking a player with Townsend’s build in the coalface. Townsend has played through the midfield to great effect in the VFL in previous seasons. However, he didn’t attend a centre bounce in the first half in their first Marsh clash and has appeared to play purely as a forward. Townsend kicked three goals in their second Marsh game, scoring 71 points from eight touches.

Verdict: At over $220,000, you can’t be relying on multiple goals to get you to 60 points.

 Sam Draper $123.9,00 RUCK

The uncapped youngster, who rejected a $1.7 million four-year deal from St Kilda, is still recovering from an ACL setback and won’t feature until the second half of the season. Ruckman Tom Bellchambers is unlikely to make it through a full season and Andrew Phillips will need support, so a debut should come eventually.

Verdict: One to possibly trade in later in the year.

Brandon Zerk-Thatcher has earned a Round 1 berth for Essendon.

Brandon Zerk-Thatcher $189,000 DEF

Marsh scores: 61, 104 Marsh average: 82.5

Zerk-Thatcher made his AFL late last season but expect him to add more games to his tally this year. The tall defender is set to be called on to cover the Bombers' depleted defensive stocks. He averaged 78 points and 7.4 intercept possessions in the VFL and has looks to have a spot in place of Patrick Ambrose, who will miss the first half of the season. Looked comfortable down back in their opening Marsh clash, scoring 61 points, but it was Marsh 2 where he came to our rookie rescue. The 21-year-old recorded 18 disposals – 13 of those intercepts – and amassed 104 points against the Cats.

Verdict: I thought $189k was a lot to pay but his intercepting prowess enables him to score big. Think Sam Collins from last year, but better. Lock him in.

Harrison Jones $117,300, FWD

Marsh scores: 44, DNP Marsh average: 44

The Bombers’ well documented injury crisis could see draftee Harrison Jones enter the frame despite his slender 75kg frame. Jones averaged 63 points in the under-18 national championships and scored 44 points and booted a goal from 40 per cent game time.

Verdict: Although he scored well considering his time on ground, he only won three possessions. Developing key forwards don’t make for good SuperCoach picks.

Cian McBride $102,300 DEF

Marsh scores: 31, DNP Marsh average: 31

Here comes the McBride. The young Irish import turned heads in their practice match against Melbourne, earning him a Marsh Series run in Western Australia. The 197cm-defender scored 31 points from seven touches in trying conditions

Verdict: We love cheap rookies but this raw product is unlikely to be a promising cash cow.

Irving Mosquito $123,900 FWD

Marsh scores: 30, DNP Marsh average: 30

Has created plenty of buzz since the Bombers bidded earlier than expected in the 2018 Draft. Mosquito averaged 60 points and booted seven goals from 12 games in the VFL last season. Managed to boot a goal and score 30 points from just 30 per cent time on ground against the Eagles

Verdict: Doesn’t have the scoring power as a small forward to enter considerations. Pass.

FREMANTLE

Stephen Hill $190,600 DEF/FWD

Marsh score: DNP, 32

Loomed as the standout cash cow in defence. The opportunity to pick a player who has surpassed an 85 season average on four occasions doesn’t come around often. Injury has been the prime concern in recent seasons and Hill was managed through the pre-season, playing just the second Marsh game. Sure enough, the veteran left the ground at three quarter time in that match with a left quad concern and didn’t return. Hill will undergo scans and considering it is yet another soft-tissue injury, expect the Dockers to be extra cautious. “The subsequent report from the scans confirmed that Stephen sustained an injury to his left quad. He will undergo further testing in the coming days to determine the extent of the injury,” football manager Peter Bell told the club website.

Verdict: At least this didn’t occur in Round 1. May be a cash cow to consider during the season.

Hayden Young $180,300 DEF

Marsh scores: DNP, DNP

This efficient intercept defender is someone we will get very familiar with in SuperCoach in the coming years. Young averaged 22 disposals and 107 points in the national championships and is capable of playing an important role in the Dockers defence from the get-go. The draftee impressed with his kicking in the Dockers’ intra-club. Joined the rehab group a fortnight ago and missed both Marsh Series games.

Verdict: More a question of ‘if’ rather than ‘when’ he plays. Shapes as a reliable on-field option, but likely to start in the WAFL.

Lachie Schultz $208,800 FWD

Marsh scores: 101, 59

The mature-age small forward managed just seven games in his first season in 2019, averaging 42.7 points per game and proving to be a frustrating rookie option for those that picked him. Then why is he entering calculations this year? The 22-year-old looks like a completely different player this pre-season, leading the Dockers for scoreboard impact and ranking first for score involvements during the Marsh Series. Schultz has booted six goals in their two matches and has averaged 80 points, including a 101-point total against the Blues.

Verdict: It’s a lot of cash to fork out for a small forward. Will become an option worth considering if other forward rookies aren’t named for Round 1 though.

Caleb Serong $175,800 MID

Marsh scores: 60, 16

Serong is another Docker top-10 selection from last year’s draft with impressive SuperCoach potential. The 178cm product’s U18 numbers speak for themselves – averaging 139 points at the national championships and 123 points in the NAB League as an inside midfielder and small forward. More likely to play as the latter early in his career. Sparkled in an internal trial and coach Justin Longmuir threw him into the guts in his limited minutes in Marsh 1, attending 11 centre bounces. Serong claimed 14 disposals, 11 contested possessions for an impressive return of 60 from 57 per cent time-on-ground. Had little opportunity to prove himself in Marsh 2, playing just 20 per cent of game time.

Verdict: Chances of a Round 1 debut appear slim judging by the lack of pre-season minutes. Watch out when he does feature, though.

Sam Sturt $123,900 FWD

Marsh scores: 39, 29

The 2018 first round draftee missed two months of football after suffering two concussions early in the last year. The athletic forward has added 5kg to his slender frame since joining the club and averaged 70.2 points in his 11 non-injury affected WAFL games in 2019. A favourite of expert Tim Michell. Sturt booted a goal and scored 39 points from nine possessions in their Marsh match, then went goalless with eight touches in Marsh 2.

Verdict: Longmuir likes him and he has picked Sturt for their season-opener. Probably better forward options on offer, though.  

Luke Valente $123,900 MID

Marsh scores: DNP, DNP

Valente was high on our SuperCoach watch-list last pre-season after averaging 118 points at the national champs and 159 in the SANFL colts. Like Sturt, Injury cruelled his first AFL season but the hard edged midfielder is likely to enter the frame sooner rather than later.

Verdict: Possible bench option when he plays, but wasn’t selected for either Marsh clash.

Tobe Watson $123,900 DEF

Marsh scores: 62, 42

The mature-age Docker, who has been mistaken for star Bomber Jobe, has been a popular selection in the past as a loophole. He impressed across half-back in their first Marsh clash, winning 13 disposals and scoring 62 points. Watson averaged 82 points in the WAFL last year and could get his chance with spots up for grabs in the Dockers backline. Played both Marsh with solid game time – a rare sight for a $123,900 rookie this year – averaging 52 points.

Verdict: WAFL numbers and age profile is a big tick for a rookie, but Luke Ryan and James Aish both missed out on the weekend and could deny him of a Round 1 spot. A bench defence contender if he remains.

Liam Henry $171,300 FWD/MID

Marsh scores: DNP, DNP

Henry was one of the biggest draft bolters with the Dockers matching Carlton’s bid at pick No.9 for the exciting indigenous talent. While he provides plenty of spark up forward and could feature early doors, it will be tough for him to score well at the top level. Didn’t feature in either Marsh clash.

Verdict: Unlikely to justify his inflated price.

Minairo Frederick $117,300 FWD

Marsh scores: 11, DNP

Frederick put himself on the radar following some eye-catching moments in Fremantle’s intra-club hitouts. He kicked a goal and had several stunning moments, showing off his flare and evasiveness. Frederick rated elite for ranking points, disposals, uncontested possessions, goals and score involvements at SANFL U18 level last season. Finished with just 11 points from 30 per cent TOG and didn’t play Marsh 2.

Verdict: Provides excitement so could get a look in at some point, but not when we need him most.

Lloyd Meek $123,900 RUCK

Marsh scores: DNP, DNP

Back-up big man moves closer to an AFL debut with the retirement of Aaron Sandilands. Had 36 hitouts, 20 disposals, six marks, six tackles and two goals before being injured in a WAFL game last year. Dockers are talking up his pre-season and Sean Darcy and Rory Lobb both have had injury problems in the past.

Verdict: A fair way back in the queue.

GOLD COAST

Izak Rankine $123,900 FWD

Marsh Series scores: DNP, DNP

Rankine is yet to make his debut but there has been a buzz around the exciting forward since he was drafted with pick No.3 in 2018. The talent was cruelled by injury last season and unfortunately his injury woes have continued this pre-season. Rankine’s preparation was halted by a shoulder injury he suffered in the Suns' unofficial practice match, missing both Marsh games as a result. The Suns said he would be right for Round 1, until he sustained a hamstring injury on the eve of their season-opener.

Verdict: Could be the top cash-generating rookie of 2020, but he won’t play in Round 1 due to a hamstring setback. Trade him in once he is on the bubble.

Matt Rowell $207,300 MID

Marsh scores: 100, 36

Rowell couldn’t have done much more across his U-18 career. Best on ground performances in both his NAB League Grand Finals – including a Herculean 44 disposals, two goals and 266 points in this year’s premiership decider – and consistently dominant displays just about every time he takes the field. The hardened midfielder took to the big league like a duck to water in Marsh 1, winning 15 contested possessions, 20 disposals and raising the bat for his first SuperCoach ton. Don’t stress about his Marsh 1 score, he tallied 14 touches in a half of footy.

Verdict: This year’s Sam Walsh. Just pick him.

Sam Flanders $162,300 FWD/MID

Marsh scores: DNP, DNP

A potential top-five pick, Sam Flanders was one of the big sliders on draft night before the Suns pounced with a live trade. The strong-bodied youngster comes at a lower SuperCoach price as a result, and is another Suns draftee who wouldn’t look out of place at the top level, averaging 113 points in the national championships.

Verdict: Not cheap by any means and didn’t feature in either Marsh clash.

Izak Rankine won't feature in Round 1.

Matt Rowell on Gold Coast’s summer training camp.

Jez McLennan $123,900 DEF

Marsh Series scores: 36, 28

The running defender was close to making his debut last season, averaging a tick under 15 disposals and 62 points at NEAFL level. Another pre-season should see the 19-year-old edge closer to a senior spot. Didn’t set the world on fire in Marsh 1, scoring just 36 points from 86 per cent time-on-ground – nearly beating that tally in his next game with just 31 per cent TOG.

Verdict: His chances of playing in Round 1 appear slim with limited gametime in both matches, but should feature during the year.

Connor Budarick $106.9k FWD/MID

Marsh scores: 74, 37

After impressing in the Suns' intra-club, Budarick looked at home against the Cats in Marsh 1. His 74 points featured 14 touches and a goal, and there are spots up for grabs in the young Suns side. However, he played just a half of footy in their next encounter, winning eight touches and scoring 37 points. Not a great sign for his job security.

Verdict: Like Rankine, is no certainty to play Round 1. If he is, we don’t have much choice but to pick him and hope he proves himself as a best-22 lock given his discount price.

Noah Anderson $202,800 MID

Marsh Series scores: 59, 11

The best mate of Rowell, who joined him at the Suns with the very next selection, is also in line for a Round 1 appearance. His ability to impact up forward and in the middle will hold him in good stead, but appears more likely to start in attack early in his career. Averaged 28 disposals, two goals in 143 points in the NAB League last season. Showed glimpses against the Cats with 14 disposals a goal and 59 points, but scored a meagre 13-point tally from a half in Marsh 2.

Verdict: Won’t reach the scores that Rowell will at that asking price. Will be very SuperCoach relevant in the years to come, though.

Jeremy Sharp $117,300 MID

Marsh Series scores: 16, 46

Sharp was one of three players over the past two years to earn duel U18 All-Australian nods. The Suns gave up their mid-first round selection from 2020 to secure the smooth-moving wingman, suggesting they rate him highly. Proved he can get his hands on the footy in both Marsh Series matches despite limited minutes, finishing with nine and 14 touches – playing just the second half in both matches.

Verdict: Sharp looks to be a solid bench rookie if named, but his job security doesn’t look so solid.

GEELONG

Brad Close $109,900 FWD/MID

Marsh scores: 51, DNP Marsh average: 51

The mature-age small forward emerged as a Round 1 bolter after scoring 51 points in Marsh 1. However, he was ousted for their next pre-season game, a real pity considering his low price and DPP status. The Cats have shown a tendency to blood mature-agers in recent years – most recently Tom Atkins – could Close be given similar opportunities?

Verdict: We hoped he would get another run but his Round 1 hopes look dashed now. Expect Close to see some senior footy at some point of the season.

Nakia Cockatoo $148,200 FWD/MID

Marsh Series scores: DNP

Superstar Patrick Dangerfield gave Cockatoo a massive pre-season pump-up, saying the 23-year-old will be “one of the biggest differences” the Cats have in 2020. He also hinted at midfield time for the exciting talent, who has played just 12 games since 2017 due to several injury setbacks. But another injury setback has him in doubt for the early part of the season.

Verdict: ‘Slot him on your field unless injury strikes’ was what we had here previously. Inevitably, it did.

Jacob Kennerley $123,900 DEF

Marsh Series scores: 34, 11 Marsh average: 22.5

The second-year wingman emerged as a Round 1 bolter following impressive running displays in the pre-season. Kennerley finished on the podium in a 15-minute pre-Christmas run, after averaging 65 points from 18 VFL games in 2019. However he was unable to make a significant impact in the pre-season, scoring 34 and 11 from limited minutes in the Marsh Series.

Verdict: Even if he was in the frame, his scoring looks suspect.

 Cooper Stephens $139,800 MID

Marsh Series scores: 21, DNP

Marsh average: 21

The hardened draftee spent most of the year building up while recovering from a fractured leg, and finished the year with an equal-first finish in the yo-yo test at the draft combine. He averaged an impressive 100 points as a bottom-ager in the NAB League and thrives in the contest.

Verdict: His under-18 numbers clearly didn’t translate to the top level. Pass.

Nathan Kreuger $123,900 FWD

Marsh Series scores: DNP

The 20-year-old swingman suffered another setback after going under the knife in December but is no danger of missing Round 1. Cats assistant coach Corey Enright says the Cats are looking to give him a taste of AFL footy after kicking 18 goals in 16 games in the VFL last season. Didn’t play either Marsh game.

Verdict: May get his chance sometime during the year.

GWS GIANTS

Lachie Ash $193,800 DEF

Marsh scores: 88, 62

The No.4 selection in last year’s draft is blessed with pace to burn and provides X-Factor off half-back. It means he could be called on early despite the Giants set line up, and his U18 numbers stack up, averaging more than 100 points in the national championships and the NAB League. Showed he can match it at AFL level from the get-go, scoring 88 points from 18 disposals in their first Marsh encounter, showing composure in 1-on-1 contests and with ball and hand. Followed that up with a solid score of 62 in Marsh 2

Verdict: With Hayden Young and Stephen Hill unlikely to play in Round 1, Ash has bolted into calculations despite his high price. Scoring should be up to scratch, but Zac Williams may snatch his spot when he returns.

Tom Green $166,800 MID

Marsh scores: 106, 72

A tall midfielder likened to Patrick Cripps, Green averaged a whopping 159 points in four NAB League games and managed to make his NEAFL senior debut last season. There is no doubting his ball-winning ability, the question is whether he can cement a spot in the Giants' best 22. He answered that with an emphatic 21 diposal (15 contested possessions), two goal performance against the Swans which saw him raise the bat for his maiden SuperCoach ton – the first of many. Then attended the second most centre-bounces, in a solid 72-point effort in Marsh 2.

Verdict: He is playing in Round 1 – hallelujah! An absolute must-have and will prove to be a reliable on-field scorer. Tim Taranto’s injury should give him a clear run to earn us a stack of cash.

Jye Caldwell $190,100 MID

Marsh scores: 42, DNP

The second-year Giant presents as another expensive midfield rookie candidate. Caldwell got his senior opportunity in an injury-interrupted debut season, playing two games and averaging 50 points. Expect him to feature more prominently in 2020. Started well in their first Marsh game, scoring 42 point from 59 per cent game time.

Verdict: Rowell remains the standout expensive midfield cash cow, and Green looks to have jumped ahead in the pecking order.

Jake Riccardi $117,300 FWD

Marsh scores: DNP, DNP

Riccardi is the latest Fothergill-Round-Mitchell medallist – awarded to the best young player in the VFL–– to be drafted. Winners of the award have proven to be solid scorers at AFL level, with Nic Newman, Luke Ryan and Kane Lambert among them. They 20-year-old key forward booted 38 goals in the VFL last year and averaged 63 points. Booted eight goals in a Giants’ NEAFL practice game.

Verdict: His scoring is more likely to mirror the previous winner, Suns key forward Josh Corbett, who averaged a touch over 40 points last season. Will also be difficult to break in as a tall forward with the Giants’ stocks brimming.

Nic Shipley $123,900 MID

Marsh scores: 35, DNP

Shipley has been stuck on the outer at his two seasons at the Giants, a familiar tale for youngsters at the club, playing just the two games back in 2018. He faces a tough ask against the likes of Green and Caldwell, winning 12 disposals and 35 points from 40 percent TOG against the Swans.

Verdict: Will struggle to get a chance and has recorded just eight disposals in his two AFL games to date.

MELBOURNE

Tom Sparrow $182,500 FWD

Marsh scores: 77, DNP

The second-year Dee has seemingly come from nowhere as an expensive rookie option following an eye-catching Marsh Series display. Playing as an inside midfielder, Sparrow tallied 17 touches and booted a goal on his way to a promising 77-point total. Sparrow debuted in Round 1 last year as small forward, scoring 62 points, but has an injury interrupted season from thereon. Sparrow didn’t feature in their second Marsh game.

Verdict: Looked to be an Aiden Bonar alternative, but is outside their best-22 and won’t play midfield unless injuries strike.

Trent Rivers $117,300 DEF/MID

Marsh Series scores: DNP, DNP

Rivers could help the Demons’ kicking woes with the running defender going at 77 per cent efficiency at last year’s U18 carnival. The medium defender remains a chance to break into their best-22 early in the season, especially if he impresses in their practice games.

Verdict: The Demons’ back six is fairly settled and an early debut appears unlikely after missing both their pre-season games.

Kysaiah Pickett $157,800 FWD

Marsh Series scores: 43, DNP

The Demons rated the small forward enough to select him with their prized pick No.12, and he brings them something they lack – forward pressure and goal sense. Will feature early for that reason but don’t expect consistent scoring, amassing a score of 125 against the Allies at the National Championships but failing to pass 60 in his other two games at the carnival. His first Marsh game showed just that, booting a goal but finishing with just six touches and 43 points. Was managed for their second game.

Verdict: Will he be exciting to watch, but don’t consider him in SuperCoach. Pass.

Toby Bedford ($123,900, FWD)

Marsh scores: DNP, 43 Marsh average: 43

Entering his second season at the Demons, the small forward impressed in their second Marsh Series clash, booting a goal and scoring 43 points from just 32 per cent time-on-ground against Hawthorn. Bedford averaged 51 points in 12 VFL games last season.

Verdict: Will make his debut in Round 1, but his job security doesn’t look great and he faces a tough first assignment against the Eagles away from home.

Is Kysaiah Pickett worth the extra cash?

Luke Jackson $198,300 RUCK

Marsh Series scores: 22, 72

Ruckman aren’t normally taken in the top 10 on draft night, but the Demons swooped on Jackson at pick 3. His stocks rose significantly in his U18 year, averaging 14 touches, 36 hitouts and 110 points at the national championships. The Dees insist he can play alongside Max Gawn - even playing as a midfielder in match simulation - and injuries to backup ruckman Braydon Preuss and key forward Sam Weideman could see him called upon early. Was a deer in the headlights in his first Marsh game but responded with a 71-point outing from 41 per cent game time against the Hawks.

Verdict: Will get early opportunities but 2020 shapes as a development year for the emerging ruck/forward. Too pricey to consider at R3.

Harley Bennell $123,900 MID

Marsh scores: DNP, DNP

Former Docker and Sun gets another AFL lifeline as a rookie at Melbourne. Has shown he can score, averaging 101.7 in his last full season. The problem is that was four years ago, and he has played just two games since due to a series of calf injuries. Coach Simon Goodwin said a Demon debut in the back-half of the season would be a good result for Bennell, so he is still a long way off.

Verdict: Massive risk but if he gets games the temptation will be huge. Could be very handy in the back-half of the year.

NORTH MELBOURNE

Aiden Bonar $202,800 FWD/MID

Marsh Series scores: 76, 14 Marsh average: 45

Stuck on the outer at the Giants, Bonar is set to receive greater opportunity at his new club. Bonar has played just six games in two seasons but has recorded season averages of 99 (2018) and 94 (2019) points in the NEAFL. If he is playing in the Kangaroos midfield, the $202.8k price tag doesn’t look so daunting and skipper Jack Ziebell says he looks in “unreal shape”. Some very encouraging signs in his first pre-season games with 15 disposals, eight tackles and three clearances as well as 76 points. Went off with hamstring tightness in their unofficial practice game against Melbourne and played just 27 per cent game time against the Swans, does this mean he is outside of their best-22?

Verdict: Was looking like the forward rookie we would count on until Marsh 2. Don’t completely rule him out, but his job security appears shaky judging by his limited minutes.

Lachie Hosie $123,900 FWD

Marsh Series scores: DNP

Taken by North Melbourne in the mid-season draft, Hosie was close to a debut in the back half of last year following 20 goals in 10 games at VFL level. The high-leaping forward can impact in the air and at ground level and will be pressing for a Round 1 debut.

Verdict: Was overlooked in their first pre-season game for Jack Mahony and Curtis Taylor, so a Round 1 debut looks unlikely.

Tristan Xerri $123,900, FWD/RUCK

Marsh Series scores: 98, 37 Marsh average: 77.5

The developing tall made quite the audition against the Bulldogs in a forward ruck role. Xerri won 11 disposals, 24 hitouts on his way to an impressive 98-point total – behind only Todd Goldstein for the Roos. He scored 37 points in their following Marsh game, which is a more accurate representation of what he will average at the top level.

Verdict: With Ben Brown under an injury cloud. Xerri has well and truly entered the Round 1 selection frame. His DPP makes his an attractive option. However, he may only play a game or two before Brown returns.  

Charlie Comben $117,300 FWD/RUCK

Marsh Series scores: DNP

The draftee is in 16 per cent of teams, but it isn’t because he is burning up the track.

Verdict: Did somebody say loophole? His dual position status makes him the leading captaincy loophole candidate with no cheaper DPP ruck options.

Jack Mahony $1117.3k FWD/MID

Marsh scores: 30, 52 Marsh average: 41

Mahony has impressed early doors in his first pre-season and featured in their first Marsh match. The lively mid-forward averaged 106 points at the under-18 championships last season but managed just six disposals against the Bulldogs. Yielded similar disposal numbers against the Swans, tallying eight touches, kicking a goal and scoring an improved 53 points. Injuries have opened the door for a crafty small forward and Mahony could fit the bill.

Verdict: Two full Marsh games is a good sign, albeit producing modest returns. If picked, we almost have to take the punt on him as a bench rookie given his MID/FWD status and the barren rookie crop.

Curtis Taylor $123,900 FWD

Marsh scores: 33, 95 Marsh average: 64

Taylor was one of the biggest sliders of the 2018 draft, one of a few youngsters left on the board despite being invited to the first night. He broke into the senior side twice last season but was immediately dropped after both, the most recent being a disappointing nine-point display. While he failed to capture the imagination in Marsh 1, Taylor was everywhere in their second practice game, finishing with 21 touches, two goals and 95 points.

Verdict: Will surge in popularity before Round 1. Has booked a place in the Roos side and expect better returns than his two AFL games to date.

Aiden Bonar is now a Shin-Bonar.

PORT ADELAIDE

Jackson Mead $117,300 MID

Marsh Series scores: DNP, DNP

The father-son selection averaged an impressive 106 points for South Australia the under-18 national championships and was a likely Round 1 starter, until he succumbed to a hamstring injury. Played predominately in the midfield as in the junior ranks but is expected to start as a forward at AFL level. Didn’t play either Marsh game for the Power.

Verdict: Loomed as a promising bench option but injury has kept him on the outer for now. Might be a handy downgrade early in the season.

Miles Bergman $148,800 FWD

Marsh Series scores: DNP, DNP

The first of the Power’s four top-25 picks, Bergman possesses great athleticism as a forward/midfielder. He posted four 120-plus totals at NAB League level and could feature in the Power side early given his X-Factor. A minor ankle injury kept him out of Port's first Marsh Series game and he wasn’t selected for their second hitout.

Verdict: His injury came at the worst possible time, but is probably a touch pricey anyway.

Dylan Williams 123,900 FWD/MID

Marsh Series scores: DNP, DNP

The last of their four top-25 selections in the 2019 draft, Williams emerged as a Round 1 bolter after slotting three goals in the Power’s intra-club. The draftee’s under-18 year was curtailed by injury, but averaged 90 points and 2.4 goals in his seven NAB League games. Like Mead and Williams, didn’t play either pre-season game.

Verdict: Appears to be a fair way back in the pecking order.

Wylie Buzza $142.300 FWD

Marsh Series scores: DNP, DNP

Buzza was traded to the Power after failing to play a game for Geelong in 2019. The 199cm forward has been known to pinch-hit in the ruck when required as well.

Verdict: Has scored more than 60 just once in his nine career games. Pass.

Sam Mayes $213,500 MID

Marsh Series scores: 56, DNP

Former top-10 draft pick landed at Port after playing 101 games over six seasons at Brisbane without setting the SuperCoach world on fire. Remarkably cheap for a 25-year-old if he can earn a spot in the best 22, but the Power’s fortunate run with injury meant he was dropped for Marsh 2.

Verdict: Probaby too expensive and being dropped from Marsh 2 isn’t a good sign.

Mitch Georgiades $130,800 FWD

Marsh Series scores: 35, 43

The 18th pick in last year's draft jumped into the frame with some excellent performances in intra-club games, development coach Chad Cornes talking up "one of the best pre-seasons I've seen from a young key forward." Georgiades moved well in both his pre-season games but it’s always going to be tough for a young key forward to score well.

Verdict: His pre-season scores didn’t exactly catch the eye, but he will face Gold Coast in his debut game this weekend. Might be a better scoring option than Max King if he can get on the end of a few, but Charlie Dixon – who is out injury - could take the youngster’s place next week. His elevated price-tag makes it difficult to start with him over others, and we can always trade him in next week if he goes large.

Tobin Cox $123,900 FWD

Marsh Series scores: 24, DNP

Port is talking him up as a long-term replacement for Robbie Gray after the rookie kicked 30 goals in 15 SANFL games last year despite missing a chunk of the season with a bad kidney injury. Cox will bring excitement to the table but as his Marsh 1 score showed, he can produce poor scores.

Verdict: Dropped for Marsh 2 and his scoring left a bit to be desired anyway.

Marlion Pickett is the standout rookie pick of 2020.

RICHMOND

Marlion Pickett $123,900 MID

Marsh score: 61, 61

Pickett would have been a standout cash cow even without his unforgettable Grand Final debut. A 28-year-old cheapie, who is set to spend most of his time in the midfield, is prime money-making material. He looms as the most lucrative rookie of 2020. Tigers say he has come back for pre-season in ripping shape. Don’t be too alarmed by his modest score of 61 – 12 of his 14 possessions were won contested, with four frees against hurting his score. Posted the same score in Marsh 2, a sign he may not produce the ridiculous SuperCoach numbers we were hoping for.

Verdict: Still a SuperCoach gift, given his 96-point Grand Final performance isn’t factored into his starting price. Looks trim and is a bona-fide lock.

Riley Collier-Dawkins $123,900 MID

Marsh score: 30, DNP

Richmond’s first selection from the 2018 draft, Collier-Dawkins got better as the year wore on for their VFL side. The inside midfielder finished the year with 22 touches and 109 points in the Tigers’ Grand Final win, and his height will add something different to their midfield mix if he gets senior opportunity. RCD scored 30 points from nine disposals in 55 per cent gametime in their Marsh hitout, and didn’t feature in Marsh 2.

Verdict: Won 57.5 per cent of his possessions in a contest last season, but looks a fair way back in the Tiger queue.

Callum Coleman-Jones $195,500 FWD/RUCK

Marsh scores: 59, 51

Taken at pick 20 in the 2017 draft, CCJ has developed nicely in the VFL and is set for a Round 1 appearance as a key forward and ruck back-up to Ivan Soldo as Toby Nankervis makes his way back from a groin issue. Has shown some promising signs in the Marsh Series, but annoyingly he made one appearance last season (scoring 60) which pushes up his starting price.

Verdict: A playing R3 is a bonus but we're going to need that cash elsewhere.

ST KILDA

Max King $123,900 FWD

Marsh Series scores: 46, 29

St Kilda’s great white hope is staring down the barrel of a Round 1 debut after booting four goals in their recent intra-club match. New coach Brett Ratten is keen to get games into him. Key forwards are generally no-go zones in SuperCoach but there are exceptions to the rule. He started Marsh 2 strongly with a 22 point first quarter but scored only another seven points for the match.

Verdict: Has rock solid job security unlike most of the forward rookie crop, and will play in Round 1. However, the scoring will be underwhelming, but all he needs is to kick a bag to see his price soar. A slow burn but still a decent F8 candidate.

Jack Bytel $123,900 MID

Marsh Series scores: DNP, DNP

Like King, injury kept Bytel out of action in his debut AFL season. The tough midfielder averaged 115 points at NAB League level in 2018 and will be keen to prove himself after having little opportunity to do so.

Verdict: St Kilda stocks are bursting with few injuries this pre-season and his absence in their first Marsh hitout isn’t a good sign.

SYDNEY

Will Gould $117,300 DEF

Marsh scores: 68

The Swans draftee is one of three back-to-back U18 All-Australians from the latest draft crop, including Matt Rowell. Gould has an AFL-ready frame and excelled at SANFL level, taking the kick-ins for Glenelg and averaging 89 points per game. Has been compared to Eagles SuperCoach stud Shannon Hurn. Gould was pinpoint with his disposal in Marsh 1, hitting the target with each of his 10 touches, scoring 68 points. Made a statement with a rock-solid bump on tough nut Matt de Boer that flattened him. However, Gould was named as an emergency for their second Marsh clash, sending shockwaves through the SuperCoach community.

Verdict: Uh oh… Was locked as an on-field defender in many teams, but those plans look to have been dashed.

Dylan Stephens $189,300 MID

Marsh scores: 38, 49 Marsh average: 43.5

Sydney’s No.5 draft pick proved he can match it with bigger bodies last season, playing 13 senior SANFL games and averaging 82 points. All signs are pointing towards an early debut for the Andrew Gaff-like midfielder, especially after claiming a recent Swans 2km time-trial. Scored just 38 points from 73 per cent time on ground in the Swans’ heavy loss. Stephens made a slight improvement in Marsh 2, posting 49 points from 13 touches.

Verdict: One to consider as an on-field rookie, but his Marsh 1 score is a sign his scoring as an outside midfielder may not justify his high price.

Justin McInerney $123,900 MID

Marsh scores: 81, 3

McInerney broke into the Swans side early in his first season but finished with just the one disposal in his sole AFL game. Another pre-season under his belt, the 19-year-old slotted in comfortably in their Marsh hitout, scoring 80 points – 54 of those coming in the first half – from 19 disposals. With Jake Lloyd, Callum Mills and Dane Rampe back in Marsh 2, he played just seven per cent game time.

Verdict: Another potential bench midfielder bites the dust. Should get opportunity at some stage, but not Round 1.

Matt Ling $123,900 DEF

Marsh scores: DNP

Ling has had no luck since joining the Swans at the end of 2017, with injuries ruining his chances to prove himself for senior selection. The first round draftee has plenty of dash and entering his third year, should score better than others at his price. Named as an emergency for their first Marsh hitout and didn’t play their second practice game.

Verdict: One to monitor if he enters the frame during the season.

Chad Warner $117,300 MID

Marsh scores: -2, DNP

The ball-winning midfielder averaged a whopping 156 points per game in the WAFL Colts, with more 61.5 per cent of his possessions coming in a contest. However he couldn’t even break into the positives against the Giants, scoring -2 from 35 per cent game time.

Verdict: Looked like one to consider with those U18 numbers but we don’t want our rookies going backwards in price…

New draftee Dylan Stephens has impressed at the Swans. Picture. Phil Hillyard

WESTERN BULLDOGS

Cody Weightman $144,300 FWD

Marsh Series scores: DNP, DNP

Weightman has caught the eye during his first pre-season with teammate Jason Johannisen tipping an early debut for the high-leaping small forward. He averaged 80 points and 2.3 goals per game at the national championships. Played neither Marsh game.

Verdict: Plenty of Bulldogs competing for that small forward spot, but should get a senior opportunity at some stage.

Ben Cavarra $123,900 FWD

Marsh Series scores: DNP, DNP

One of the pre-season favourite of 2019, Cavarra had an injury-interrupted first season, playing just 12 matches and averaging 88 points in the VFL. He booted 65 goals for Williamstown the previous two seasons and should have a better chance of making an AFL breakthrough in 2020.

Verdict: Cavarra will make his long awaited Round 1, and he’ll be hungry as ever. The perfect Izak Rankine replacement and looms as a on-field option in the forward line.

Jordan Sweet $123,900 RUCK

Marsh Series scores: 73, DNP

Marsh average: 73

A concussion to primary ruckman Tim English saw Sweet thrown to the wolves against Todd Goldstein. He was comprehensively beaten – as expected – but still managed to win 13 disposals, 25 hitouts and score 73 points. A familiar name for those who used him as a loophole option last season. Left out for Marsh 1 as English returned.

Verdict: Will only play if English is injured, but the mature-age ruckman is ready in the wings.

WEST COAST

Jarrod Brander $133,000 DEF/FWD

Marsh scores: 46, 77

The rookie well is fairly dry at the Eagles, but Brander should get more senior opportunity in his third season. The 2017 first-round draftee has played just three games with a high score of 36 but the Eagles are making a lot of positive noises about his pre-season. Posted 46 points from 11 possessions in their opening Marsh Series game in conditions that didn’t suit. He then put himself firmly on our rookie radars with a promising 77 point return, gathering 17 touches and five marks showing great mobility in a wing role, and looks to have earnt his spot in their best-22.

Verdict: All the talk is that the Eagles will play him on a wing, and he looked suited to the role in Marsh 2. We may have to ignore his past scoring and just pick him with rookie options dropping like flies.

Bailey Williams $123,900, DEF/RUCK

Marsh scores: 70, DNP

A Round 1 bolter has emerged – a defender/ruck no less. The 19-year-old ruckman with a phenomenal vertical leap was selected ahead of Tom Hickey in the Eagles' Marsh Series match and performed strongly, finishing with 12 possessions a goal and 70 points. Williams missed Marsh 2 with injury but another poor display from Nathan Vardy keeps him in the frame. Coach Adam Simpson said their best-22 is still unknown, with an intraclub match this Friday to help determine who fills the ruck spot – with Williams to be given the opportunity to prove himself.

Verdict: Competition for spots is tough in the Eagles side but Williams is in with a shot. Is worth picking if named for Round 1 given he would be their second ruck if selected. At the very least, he’s a handy DEF/RUCK swing with Richmond’s Bigoa Nyuon.

Anthony Treacy $112,900 FWD

Marsh scores: 26, DNP

The mature age small forward, who averaged 71 points in the WAFL last season, got his chance in the Eagles first pre-season game. However, his 11 11 possessions translated to a meagre 26-point return, and he didn’t get a second chance in Marsh 2.

Verdict: Priced below regulation rookies but his Marsh game wasn’t a ringing endorsement.
