Pies recruiting manager Derek Hine says:
"Tom's a key forward/key back and can potentially pinch hit in the ruck. He's from the Oakleigh Chargers and Marcellin Grammar. He has floated between that school system and the TAC Cup. Most clubs were probably a little bit surprised he wasn't taken in the national draft, so we were hoping he was going to be there for that pick because he has got that flexibility to go both ends. We're very pleased to bring him in."
42. Declan Reilly

Former club: Sandringham Dragons / East Sandringham Zebras
DOB:09/12/1992

Pies recruiting manager Derek Hine says:
"Declan's up around the 197cm mark and is from the Sandringham Dragons and Caulfield Grammar. He'll most likely slot into our front half and he certainly has got the scope to pinch hit in the ruck as well. Declan's more of a genuine forward/ruck."
58. Jack Perham

DOB:12/06/1990
Height: 192cm

Pies recruiting manager Derek Hine says:
"Jack's a 20-year-old boy from East Fremantle. He struggled in 2009 with his relocation from Geraldton down to the WAFL but his improvement this year has been substantial, to the point where he was playing regular senior football for East Fremantle. He leads up at the ball and also has scope in the ruck. He's agile, uses the ball well by foot and is a really good decision maker. We think Jack is going to give us even more versatility in our front half, as he can play deep or high."
73. Jye Bolton
Player statistics
Former club: Leopold / Drysdale
DOB:03/03/1992
Height: 183cm
Weight: 80kg

Pies recruiting manager Derek Hine says:
"Jye played for Leopold in the GFL this year, and was coached by Aaron Greaves who will now coach the Geelong Falcons. Jye's second half to the year was really consistent and if you were to graph his improvement it was certainly trending upwards. He had a really good finals series and he's an elite endurance athlete. We see him potentially as a player who can play out of our defensive half."
81. Paul Cribbin
Player statistics
Former club: County Kildare (Ireland)
DOB:25/06/1992
Height:191cm
Weight:79kg
Position: Defender
Pies recruiting manager Derek Hine says:
"Paul's from County Kildare and is a 191cm Irishman. He's not too dissimilar to a Tadhg Kennelly type. He's an extremely aggressive runner and actually won our two-kilometre time trial before the guys went to Arizona, so that gives you a bit of an insight into his aerobic capacity. He'll just give us a little bit more depth through all areas of the ground."
