BRISBANE Lions rookie Jordon Bourke says he cannot afford to remain idle when his teammates take their Christmas break next week.

The 19-year-old AIS-AFL Academy graduate has been training with Lions for the past fortnight and plans to work out on his own over Christmas to help match the fitness levels of his new peers.

"It's a massive step up from anything I've done," the former Morningside forward said.

"I'm going up against AFL superstars in training so this has been a big reality check for me and I realise it only gets harder from here."

The son of former Geelong and Brisbane Bears ruckman Damian Bourke is the first member of the Lions Academy to join the club's list, which was further strengthened in yesterday's rookie draft by former Woodville-West Torrens forward Nick Hayes.

Callum Bartlett was re-drafted with pick No.21.

Queenslanders fared well in the rookie draft after being largely overlooked in the national draft.

Broadbeach's Andrew Boston, an under-18 All-Australian selection this year, was recruited by the Gold Coast Suns while Redland's Adam Oxley is off to Collingwood.

The Suns used their second selection to recruit 22-year-old backman Leigh Osborne.
