I don't think he was viewed as a top 20 prospect, he wasn't really that good. It's just been a bad year for him, not much more to what I know of.* a draft slider seems to be Jason Cooke from Calder? A top 20 prospect at the start of 2013, can you elaborate what's happened?
He should go top 40 as he's in that catergory and I think a team could definitely take a punt on him earlier than expected. He has loads of talent and is a special player, under a right development system he could become a solid footballer.* Sicily - love him mate, could be a bolter I think?
Great point mate, the thing is I really do not rate Cutler. I would not draft him in the top 40 and there are many key position players in a weak draft that are better than him. He is too short to play that key defender role so he will be forced to rebound. He can play as a midfielder and he's a nice, athletic player but I really think a team taking him in the 20s or higher is making a mistake.Also, Tom Cutler seems to be the Aidan Corr like bolter.
Unfortunately, I don't think they will. Dumont will probably slide to the 20s and any team that picks him will have a bargain. It is being said that we are more interested in Dunstan.Rahul, do you think St Kilda will grant your wish of Dumont being a Saint?
Of those 3, I see Impey as being most likely to be selected that high. Good point re drafting, but if they get an opportunity to grab Dumont or Cripps or Crouch they shouldn't overlook them.Also, there seems to be something in recent years r.e. Hawthorn snagging someone from seemingly left field or just simply sweet timing.
2010, Isaac Smith.
2011, Brad Hill.
2012, Tim O'Brien.
Who will it be this year?
Maybe a Malcolm Karpany, Jarman Impey or a Nick Favretto.
