Apparently rookie draft -doesn't count anymore.
Watch this space.
Well its clear now what the next great argument will be for the reserves sides fr the up coming season.
I'd be expecting a revamp with SANFL to take greater control over current junior set up . Expect articles on SA's failing junior set up and we only had 8 kids drafted as justification(false stat). Even though last 3-4 years most successful period for SAU18s re championships/numbers drafted.
Going to guess the new structure will provide greater access to SA juniors to the AFL clubs via academies or more cash to power/crows.
As per every other move made by SANFL since Olsen has taken over.
Brenton Phillips job may even be in danger under new structure which is unbelievable IMHO
Stay tuned and pretend to act surprised.
