correct year? edit

according to Footy Wire, this (these players) mid-season was in 1991. However, looking at Andrew Tarpey's record, he played with Collingwood till 1991, and here it says he was drafted from Sandringham, it would make more sense for this draft to be mid-1992 so as to allow for time to play for Sandringham. Thoughts? The-Pope? --SuperJew (talk) 16:28, 15 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Footywire is a bit confused. They've tried to remove the National/Preseason/Rookie year confusion (in the next months we'll have the 2013 National Draft followed by the 2014 Rookie draft) by listing them "at the end of season", but they've got the mid year ones wrong. This list is correctly labelled 1992 Mid Year Draft. 1990 was the first mid year draft, Laurie Schache #1 pick to Brissy, 91 was Ashley Byrne to Bris, 92 John Parker to Bris, 93 Matthew Ahmet to Syd and that's it.
