So, without a full week to review, my time (and yours) might be better spent having a look at the next generation of youngsters.

Particulary with the AFL running <a href="http://www.afl.com.au/development/nabaflrisingstarsprogram/nabunder18s/u18allaustraliancompetition/tabid/14416/default.aspx">this ripper of a comp.[/url]

$1000 to the person who can predict the 22 players you think will recieve all Australian honours after the championships.

Get up to date with your rookies for next year and at the same time, put yourself in for the chance for $1000.

Can it get any better?

So, who do we expect to get in?

Well, the obvious names to look at would be out of the following:

Tom Scully and Kane Lucas, both should be first round midfield picks in the coming draft.
John Butcher, with his performance so far, is being touted as a #1 pick over Scully up there.

But after that, theres a couple of stand up names, like Carey, Morabito, Matera... But I dont know if I would *lock* them in just yet.

Anyways, Ill submit the following team for your perusal.

B : Andrew Hooper, Sam Reid, Marcus Davies
HB: Josh Toy, Daniel Talia, David Swallow
C : Jack Trengove, Kane Lucas, Anthony Morabito
HF: Jesse Crichton , John Butcher, Alex Carey
F : Brandon Matera ,Ben Griffiths, Gary Rohan
Fo: Nathan Vardy, Tom Scully, Hayden Jolly

IC: Zac Smith, Jack Darling, Koby Stevens, Allen Christensen

Not a bad starting place, but with two more weeks remaining, Im sure it will change a lot!

Anyways, good luck with this one! And keep an eye on those championships!
