    This^^. The Jordan McMahon pick will still live.
    I like Rance as a player, but he does make poor decisions and isn't a great kick.

      Not to mention that Jordy ACTUALLY played seven good seasons for the Dogs, so it's not even pick 19 that we're talking about, we've gotten so much service from Pick 10 in the 2000 (!) national draft, which may well continue to have an impact WELL into the 2020s!

      1 pick for 20-25 years of TOP-TIER service vs. 1 pick for 2 years of SHITHOUSE service? Now THAT'S a last laugh.

        The geniuses down at Tigerland need a lesson in basic logic.
        Like it, spot on.

            The conditions that have been agreed to (uncontracted players being accessible)
            The condition that teams be compensated has to also be adhered to. Come to the party AFL fair is fair
