Rantall should be one of the first names off the board tonight with Brisbane and Adelaide among those clubs interested in the hard running midfielder. Boasting an elite endurance base and the ability to play inside or outside, Rantall is a former Australian basketballer who is capable of stepping up to the elite level after making immense progress on his game in 2019 |

The NAB League premiership skipper watched two of his teammates get drafted with the first two picks and should find his way to a home in the second-round. The polished ball user dominated in the finals series to stamp his status in the draft pool, following an ultra-consistent season at all levels. |

And a bit on Ruscoe:
| Quote: | TREY RUSCOE
Height 190cm
Weight 90kg
Current Team East Fremantle, Western Australia
Birthday November 3, 2001
DRAFT ANALYSIS: “Ruscoe is a utility who can play anywhere on the ground, due to his marking ability and his skill execution.”
DESPITE suffering a season-ending shoulder injury in the last game of the AFL National Under-18 Championships, Trey Ruscoe had done enough to gain interest from several clubs. A utility who can play at either end of the ground, Ruscoe is strong overhead, positions himself well and has neat skills. Although undersized, Ruscoe always competes and wins the majority of one-on-one contests, even against bigger opponents.
STRENGTHS:
Intercept marking
Positioning
Skills
Versatility
Competitiveness
IMPROVEMENTS:
Size for favoured role

Trent looks like a steal. Elite ball user, Premiership captain. One of the best finals series players.

So that's it for the Pies tonight.
We now look forward to tomorrows rookie draft, where we'll have 2 picks, one of which is expected to be Lynden Dunn.
So essentially we have one pick..... I think?

Nah. Good forward leading patterns, intercepts and one on one? Nice kick? Hates being beaten. Taken up around pick 50?
He's just like James Sicily.
Well you know... we can hope  |

Yep the one year only 10 year rule (Alan Aylett VFL big wig at the time)
Rantall , Barry Davis (Ess) and Doug Wade (Geelong) to mention a few
that was instrumental in winning 1975 flag

Of course.

afl.com.au:
"Verdict: The Pies had to wait until pick No.40 to start their draft, but would have been rapt to lock away Rantall when they eventually did. The running man was a talented junior basketball who broke the all-time record in the 2km time trial at the NAB AFL Draft Combine earlier this year. His footy skills have improved out of sight this season, but it's his endurance that is his biggest strength. Bianco, a mad Pies fan, was granted his biggest wish when he arrived at pick No.45. He'll add plenty of outside class for the club with his fantastic kicking ability, particularly off half-back. That was a win/win for both parties, given the Magpies' drastic need for nice users out of the backline. Realising a need to secure depth in key-position areas, the Pies nabbed Ruscoe at pick No.55. The West Australian is a 190cm talent, who will likely start his career as a lockdown defender." - Riley Beveridge |
