Browne to the rookie listWhat is everyones thoughts on the contracted player to be delisted? I'm not sure I've seen an indication from the club.
My preference would be to send Pears to the rookie list.

So looks like one of the guys that Port supporters said would be fair to chuck in with pick 17 as adequate compensation for Ryder, Ben Newton, was delisted/walked out of the club today...
Geelong will pick him up for nothing.

This is what was annoying me they were offering up guys that they were going to delist anyway in combination with #17, which in my mind devalues the pick quite a bit!
He left them, not the other way around.This is what was annoying me they were offering up guys that they were going to delist anyway in combination with #17, which in my mind devalues the pick quite a bit!
I know, but it seems as though the others they tried putting up were delisted.He left them, not the other way around.
Bolded are hardly terrible. It's development, not talentAmazing just how bad Melbourne have been at the ND.

How does that stack up against our drafting over the same period?
Yes every club stuffs up picks. But only Melbourne routinely stuff up first round picks.I would guess you could do that with any clubs drafting and highlight all their misses. Every club has them. I would suggest Melbourne creates their own misses, with poor development.
This is why Petrecca would be gunning for #1 so that he has a chance of being an ok player.
You might want to include Connor Blakely in that list too. Played in the WAFL most of the year despite only being in his draft year, averaged 21 touches for WA in the u/18s carnival, 7 clearances and at 78% efficiency. Wins his own ball, has a pretty reliable kick and moves at a reasonable pace. Could do far worse.I'd be disappointed if we took Lamb with our first pick. Would much rather any of the good ball users in De Goey, Cockatoo, Ellis, Menadue, Duggan, etc.
From what I saw his kicking didn't look very damaging, but yeah pretty reliable. He seems like he could have an immediate impact like Dunstan. I'm pretty happy with the ball winners we've got though and would like to bring in more classy users like Z. Merrett.You might want to include Connor Blakely in that list too.

How are you basing the point scoring? I don't get how we got 3 points for 2006 while Melb only got 2, despite one of those players still being on the list...Comparison with EFC:

Another solid draft by EFC with 3/4 again turning into solid players. Melksham hasn't excelled but is a solid footballer, Carlisle great and Colyer really stood out in 2014. Melboure 2pts, EFC 5pts

Too early to tell but EFC nailed the first two picks for sure.. Melbourne still jury out. Melbourne - 4 pts, EFC - 6 pts.
Total over the 8 year period: Melboure 17 points, EFC 40 points.
Yeah.. Melbourne suck.
