What would we get?

Re: What would we get?

Wasn't he a NSW scholarship pick? Or am I thinking of someone else.

NO he wasn't. Wasn't Oagle our only NSW scholarship player?

Yep, that's the one.

Re: What would we get?

Yes, he was a late pick - not sure about the last part

1996 Brownlow Medalist. 2 time premiership player.

David Myers a win at pick 6?? Big call!

Re: What would we get?

What we do in this draft will show up in 5 years from now. Thats why we are struggling atm because of bad drafting 4-5 years ago. Richmond and Carlton to an extent are teams where this is showing up.

Re: What would we get?

Good thread Mofra, appreciate the research.

It's with noting the first round picks are a little bit deceptive as pick 6 has been the pick of death historically (mostly due to incompetent recruiting by Pelican at Hawthorn)

If we used pick 7 rather than 6 the list would look like this

2005- Ryder
2006- J Selwood
2007- Palmer
2008- Rich

That list is significantly better.

I think EJ was being funny.

We'd probably get another couple of rucks. Can't ever have enough.

KPP players is what we need I think.

I think we need more guys that crack in.

Very true. We need more guys like Boyd, Cross and Picken.

Re: What would we get?

Even though we need the two best mids (pref. with skill, pace would be nice too) does anyone think we may look at a KPF?

The backs look 'OK' from a development standpoint with Lake (1-2 years left), Williams, Talia and Roberts.

The forwards list has numbers, but are they good? Panos and Hill are both untried and likely to be delisted, leaving Jones and Cordy. I think Jones can develop into a solid CHF but I don't think he'll be that 50+ goal kicking forward that we need. Personally, I don't see Cordy being that either.

It's worth looking at the best available KPF.

Just watching money Ball with Brad Pit. Anyone seen it? Interesting take on player selection in sport. Have we become overly sensitive to drafting 'characters'? '.

Panos must be on borrowed time although I feel Hill will get another season to prove himself.

It wont matter what forwards we pick up if we cant deliver it to them to advantage. We must find an outside mid who can break lines and dispose of it properly, like a new Cooney.
