        Yes I believe we have. And overly sensitive in handling anyone not made out of cardboard.

                In hindsight how good were Hawthorn's top 10 picks that year. Bloody awesome. Without doubt the most successful of any draft and probably will be for many years to come.

                  I would like to see a gorilla for the forward line drafted, someone who will develop into a monster that all fullbacks fear.

                    Well, when you find that time machine that takes you back to 1982,to recruit your full forward gorilla, can you bring me back a can of Tarino and a Big Razz.

                      These days you need a better balanced forward rather than relying on a Tony Lockett type which is so 80s-90s footy.

                        True but with our current bomb it in that kinda direction style football the Tony Lockett type would probably work.

                            It would be nice to have a forward of the ilk of Jonathon Brown, look at Patton he is going to be a monster. Love to have had him in the team in 5 years.... I hope we can snag someone like that, but not sure there is one. Here is to chance.

                              Do you think we should go Hogan in the GWS mini draft for example or are you looking for someone like Jaksch as an earlier draft pick?

                              The draft is pretty shallow for quality talls this year, so maybe Hogan may be the way to go.

                                I think we will have to take a chance on someone, big call I know to use a precious pick but what options do we have. I really dont see why they would go after another medium sized forward...we really need a tall, like I said a gorilla, I strongly believe that the game has gone back to the long kick inside 50 to a marking forward.
