[p.s. On the topic of footy books - can others recommend other good books about footy and footy players? I haven't read many. I did read In the Blood by Jim Mains, which I found interesting and illuminating but a bit lacking in depth and detail. I'm keen to read Roos' recently published autobiography. Playing God is pretty good - lots of detailed research and colour about Australian and footy history.[/QUOTE]

I think that Emma Quayle's books on the draft are outstanding. Look for 'The Draft' (featuring P. Veszpremi, which follows the 2007 draft, and 'The Draftees', which follows the 2014 draft (featuring I. Heeney).
