Re: Bailey Rice?
Are we committed to picking him up, just because he has nominated us??
Or can we choose to pick someone else up instead??
What pick number would he be rated as, if he wasn't a father son??
Sorry, the answers are probably in here somewhere but haven't got time to look

As ex-president Peter Summers said:
“If we are going to be a contender, we may as well plan to win the bloody thing.”

Re: Bailey Rice?
We will know what pick he is rated at if/when another team bids for him.saintbob wrote:Are we committed to picking him up, just because he has nominated us??

We do not have to match the bid, we can let him go and wait for our next pick if we think he's not worth it.

He is a top 30 player.

Re: Bailey Rice?
He is definitely a top one hundred pick unless "those photos" get published ahead of the draft.saintbob wrote:Are we committed to picking him up, just because he has nominated us??

The more you know, the more you know you don't know.
When I was a young child, I knew that I knew so much about so much.
Now that I am old and know so much more, I know that I know so much about so little, and so little about so much.

'Interestin' Bailey Rice Article
I was able to follow the drift of the article. I didn't mind the background story on Bailey.MC Gusto wrote:God the age make it hard to read with all the typos and bad grammar
Have to say The Age is way beyond what the other big rag in town - The Bum News can put together. With the Age I usually feel like I am at least learning something whether it is regarding sport or 'world affairs'. The Humdrum Herald doesn't do my grey matter any favours I think.
Hoping the draft does well by us tonight !

Rice had a consistent season at all levels he played, and was particularly good at TAC Cup level for the Stingrays. He averaged 21 disposals at 73 per cent efficiency during the season, and gave some solid rebound from half-back. He averaged nearly five rebound-50s a game and has a penetrating right-foot kick.
He also showed an aggressive and competitive streak that should stack up well at the next level. Rice isn't afraid of throwing his weight around or going back with the flight of the ball to intercept a mark in defence or make a spoil. His two games at VFL level later this season for the Northern Blues showed he could handle the step-up his physicality too.
The teenager tested fine for speed at the NAB AFL Draft Combine (3.03 seconds over 20 metres) but will need to lift his endurance at the next level to keep up. That's something most draftees have to improve once they step into the elite system, but it should be a focus for Rice, who sat out the aerobic tests (beep test and 3km time trial) at the combine.
