What are the rules re 2007 rookies staying at club they're at. Do we have 1st chance at keeping Van Rheenan? I think he may develop into a star down the track. What do others think?

The club can still retain rookies over for the next year so I'm sure your son is safe at the club, Mrs Van Rheenan. :lol:

Had a chuckle at responses but definately NOT his mum, just think he's got a lot of natural ability and looks an exciting prospect. :D

He's got the talent, but really lacks in confidence. He always says just that, and that he has "no idea in the forward line".

But I'm confident he will make it, one more rookie year, then onto the list !

I think he will be retained on our rookie list.

Lets remember that this time last year he was playing 2nd Div Under 18's for Scoresby in the Eastern Footy League. He needs time. Has more than enough up side to remain on our rookie list !!

Maybe she's both.

And hence Luke's new nickname is "Oedipus".

Oh how I wish I'd woosed out & used a nickname like all you other wimps have. If I had used a "blokesy" pseudonym this would'nt be happening .I'm nearly 60, single & a passionate Saint. I want to celebrate our 2nd! Flag! Got to a couple of Casey games, liked the look of him. Yes raw talent but considering background [Sth Africa] & "NEW" to game hope we retain & encourage. PS have read Archie has done something to X? What? Fill me in please!

Definitely worth another year or two to develop. Good on him!

Sh*t, good luck! Stay off the fags and booze, switch to a raw veg and fish diet and take up tai chi, you're going to need every season you can get 8-)


The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts.
