I have some professional dealings with a guy who is off to Draft Camp next month. One of the things he has informed me of is the questionaires that 2 non-Victorian clubs asked him to complete.
Questionaire 1 asked 45 mostly football related questions
Questionaire 2 asked 30 questions that related to football, values, family and other topics. Although this questionaire had less questions it required more detailed answers than the other.
A 3rd non-Victorian club sent reps around to his home to interview him. This kid is a possible 3rd Rd Draft pick
Could this be an example of how far ahead the non-Victorian clubs are? !!

Surely it's not difficult to write a questionaire and send it to potential draftees?
Anyone with a "Diploma of Google Searching" could find one that's relevant. The best ones are licenced to universities and such though, but wouldn't be all that expensive for the Saints to licence.

The saints may not be considering him. Questionaires sounds something very much like what the saints would do.Otiman wrote:Surely it's not difficult to write a questionaire and send it to potential draftees?

not that CJ was a big coupe but when he was rookied the saints spoke to him once and he never heard anything from them again mean while the dockers were talking to him on a weekly basis as well as another vic club on 3 seperate occasions after the saints drafted him his oldman asked why they didnt get anyother calls from the saint to the reply "we didnt want the other clubs to know we were interested in him " so the saints some times are not as agressive as the other clubs to keep their intentions close to their chest
