I wouldn't be using Knightmares rankings to judge how good a player may or may not be. His knowledge of prospects although widespread is not that insightful and is often inaccurate.
In any case my point being was I would be just as disappointed if we ended up with Cockatoo as I would if we ended up with Ellis. Not because they don't have have potential or won't be good players, its just that at pick 12 there are much better players on offer who are not only better now but will be better once they reach the AFL system. Although I know you'll disagree with me on Cockatoo.
Thats just ridiculous, How can you say how good a player like Cockatoo aged 17 with missing a full season will not be as good as the other players that get drafted before him or are ranked higher at the moment.
His upside under a professional envoirment with proper experienced coaches and being a full time AFL player is massive, Probably more than any other player in this years draft. He has the potential to be a Rioli,Goodes,wells type player
