watched brennan the last couple of games and he seems to have much more upside than mackie.

does anyone else think we made the wrong choice?

Brennan was pick 3 IIRC. Fremantle traded the pick for Des Headland.

Would have to be one of the worst drafts of all time. I reckon mackie was worth a punt and still may end up being a good player with more maturity.

I think "pass" could have been a better option.

hmm mackie- that guy needs roids! but seeing as tho that will get him banned from AFL- maybe we should do wat the bombers did with their African prodigy (Golan Tutlam- i think his name was). A skinny kid, but they bought like a tonne of meat and told him to eat it all. That and a lifetimes Fitness First membership and Mackie can be anything!

The intellect on this board is spiralling about as much as our finals hopes.

Wow I take it you didn't see the Wizard Cup Grand Final. Tom Lonergan > Luke Jericho.

Staker is a more irritating version of Mackie. They both play 3 good games a year, they are both skinny as a rake but Staker has an airy fairy face that you just want to punch and runs like Kent with a second carrot up his ass. Perhaps a slightly better prospect than Mackie but not by much.

We could find plenty of worse stuff ups that that.

Are you talking about Luke Brennan from the Hawks? (Pick 8 2002) If you are Mackie has done more, although Brennan has been injured quite a lot.
