Pick 41- Warrick Andreoli

Quick wingman and half-back who had some success as a sweeper with WA in the NAB AFL U18 Championships. Yet to dominate in a fashion that suggests an AFL career but shows plenty to work with.


Former club:South Fremantle / Ramblers FC
DOB:28/02/1992
Height:183cm
Weight:73kg
Position:Midfielder

The pick before us, obviously we didn't rate him high enough to be our first pick at 24 and rolled the dice and lost.

warrick andreoli

Height: 183cm
Weight: 73kg
DOB: 28/02/92
Club: South Fremantle (WA)

Kevin Sheehan says: Extremely quick player who takes the game on and is a good user of the ball on preferred left side. Showed his talent with WA in the 2010 NAB AFL Under-18 Championships where he averaged 15 disposals at 72 per cent efficiency.

Another one from whinge alot :D

Well apart from Jackson, no height has been added. Certainly no rucks taken.

So I guess that's it folks :D

From BF

Warwick Andreoli – South Frem / 182cm / 70kg

Presents as someone who will play at AFL level on a wing but could equally play any of the flanks. Wing suits him because he has super pace and is prepared to take the game on. Also has great agility and just gets across the park at ease so is a nice player to watch. Skills are good and can go fwd and kick a goal. I think he may end up as a Clint Jones tagger.....

Listed elsewhere as 73kg, hope so :shock: 2-3 phantom rookie drafts had him going very high

Pick 24: Thomas Curren. . 178cm. 75 kg. Dandenong Stingrays. Played mostly Suburban football this year. Running Small forward/midfielder

I know nothing about this Curren kid, but remember there was no write up about Gwilt when he was picked. There was a write up about Neagle does thatmean we should pick him?

To say a pick is wasted because no write up , no picture on a average website is ridiculous.

These recruiters get paid for a reason if they fail they lose their job. I am sure they hve good reason for picking this kid.

glad we got Eddy back

IMO was developing nicely when we cut him

the onus is put on him now to improve his disposal or get out
