Rookie draft: Tippett to North, Wood to Carlton, Jolly misses out North Melbourne has picked up Joel Tippett. CARLTON coach Mick Malthouse has picked up former Collingwood ruckman Cameron Wood in the AFL rookie draft. The 204cm ruckman played with VFL club Williamstown this season after being delisted by the Magpies at the end of 2012 and today admitted he had virtually given up hope of resurrecting his AFL career before the Blues selected him. Meanwhile, another former Pies ruckman, Darren Jolly, missed out, failing to get picked by St Kilda or rumoured suitor Essendon. North Melbourne picked up Joel Tippett, younger brother of Kurt, while Richmond selected former Lion Todd Banfield and Matt Thomas from Port Adelaide. The Saints picked former Gold Coast player Maverick Weller, while there was no room for Mitch Thorp. Maverick Weller has joined St Kilda. In a pre-season draft that lasted less than 20 seconds, Jed Lamb's switch from Sydney to GWS was the only pick. It was the shortest pre-season draft in AFL history, following five selections two years ago and eight last year. As expected, Ahmed Saad was not selected after receiving an 18-month ban from the AFL Tribunal on Tuesday. The St Kilda forward's ban for taking a substance on the anti-doping prohibited list is back-dated to August 20, meaning he will be eligible to play again in February 2015. Saad admitted to drinking a protein shake which contained a banned stimulant to which he tested positive in July.
