It looks like we have another recruit on the way. This one is a 23 year old 194 cm ruck/fwd. He’s from a lesser league so hard to tell if he will step up straight away, but is of the Delahunty mould: competes well in hitouts but main strength is that he gets plenty of possessions as an onballer (kind of like how Jaiden Hunter was used at colts level). He’ll arrive early in the new year, but will hopefully appear on the list sooner than that.
 

Joseph (Joey) Chaplin was who i was referring to way back then. I see he has finally arrived on our list

I see he played for the same Tassie team as Jaques Barwick in 2019 so probably on Jaques recommendation. Pity Barwick is no longer on the list I thought he showed a bit of ability.

Barwick's first game last year was great. What happened to him again?

Joseph Chaplin 193cm 81 kg, age 22

A few new names have appeared on the list, some guys from EF, WP, SF and S. All average height, with very modest stats. I expect they are there just to pad out the reserves team, but maybe one or more will surprise. We look a lot better on paper than last year, but still lacking depth, I think.  

68 now on the list. Anyone know how many are allowed. I notice Stubbs brother non longer on the list - I wonder if that will affect Sam.
