Which 2004 Draftee will come out of the box in 2005 to surprise all in the comp?
My tip? Adam Iaccobucci. :)

Eddie Betts because Carlton haven't had a true forward pocket since Heaver and spots are still up for grabs. James Gwilt and Matthew Egan would have to be something special or need both sides to have disastrous years to get in a top four side ahead of other more talented kids.

Mathew Egan is the only Real Tall defender to back up the likes of Scarlett and Harley

We could only hope that Collingwood supporters were disillusioned, that way we wouldn't have to put up with their crap about how good they think they are. No I think you meant 'deluded collingwood supporter'

Okay, first, I wouldn't go saying that the guys probably never seen Iacobucci play when Bushranger games were widely seen on television.
Second of all, I have seen Iacobucci play, and I've seen his AFL-ready body, and his tremendous work ethic in play; he's a ferocious tackler, and is excellent with his hands. He may not be a superstar, but I would be suprised if he didn't play this year, given his combination of talents.

Jarred Moore. Sydney's first pick. He is a ready-make player and will win the Rising Star award.

Jesse Smith / Dean Polo.

Yep, Moore was a steal for Sydney (pick 31 approx?) IMO, and will provide great value around the ball.

:o very true. I meant to type 'deluded' but my anger towards Collingwood imbeciles obviously clouded my mind as I hurriedly typed away
Jesse Smith / Dean Polo.
From us tigs i got a feeling Polo will suprise 2.
I see Collingwood supporters talk alot about Iaccobucci, can someone fill me in about him...
I'll third that... Dean Polo for me.
Can't see our picks getting a go this year.

I have actually seen Iacobucci play. And I have seen him train and spoken to him. He has a hard edge to his game, and solid skills. Ready made for AFL football, and prehaps a mini-Paul Licuria. The type of player Malthouse likes.

especially considering he is the size of midfielder.
crackers obviously believed the annual post draft collingwood 'our players are wayyy better than any others drafted' pitch.

In fairness, he's 189cm, which, if you add his athletic ability and long arms, is just on the low side of KPP size, but it is ridiculous to compare him to Wayne Carey.
