Apart from the privacy element for the kid, I'm not sure I do understand why it's private.
If they're draftable (as in any good) they'll be playing TAC cup at 17-18 and every scribe worth 5 cents will know they are in our NGA, and be reporting it. Like with IQ.
and Give Fans more Intrest In it as at the Moment they don't care about these Kids.
We will find out about him when/IF the play U-16 National Champs
Would be eligible for the 2020 draft. Played in last years under 17s, but I haven't heard anything about his draft prospects. Nick Daicos is eligible for the 2021 draft and he's getting mentioned all the time.

Yes, the Pies hierarchy need to get on to that... he's being talked up as a pick 1 or 2!
By his draft, I'm hopeful we've been able to temper those rumblings to about mid second round

We will very likely need to juggle McInness ( N G A ) into the 2020 draft. He’s been a top 20 prospect all along and that hasn’t changed.
It’s a pity the U18s can’t get a start this year. Last year he was a victim of being in a team of ridiculously gifted mid fielders ( Rowell, Anderson, Bianco ) and he spent a lot of time at half forward. He’s a classy rangy mid and he would have got a lot more time in the middle this season.
Hard to draw a form line with so little footy played but likely to have his name called out in or around the mid / late teens.
Gary Player “ the harder I practice, the luckier I get “
Upcoming draft/s is/are going to be very interesting given rumoured list number and salary cap reductions.
How many players need to go off lists and how many spots free required for the draft will be interesting. It may mean in a couple years there's a bumper crop of undrafted talent running around state leagues, or there's some pretty decent delisted free agents...
List management is going to be extremely difficult for Ned given the relatively even depth we presently have.

I haven't seen him play football but have seen him playing basketball quite regularly over a number of years. From what I have seen he lacks height, speed and skill compared to the far more athletic boys he played with and against, so I wouldn't think he would make it as an AFL footballer. Having said that, I hope that he proves me wrong.

Thanks - that’s a shame. Pies with a Prestie is a good thing.
