So seriously...this Doobee fella we blew a pick on..

[PhatHQ]

DVR was ok against your VFL side.
Kicked a ripper goal.
Ran straight up the middle of the ground took two or three bounces and nailed it from 50.
KID needs to work on his fitness thats clear, but that's no unusually for a second year player.

Clem Smith looks like a new player this year.
Bolton has had big influenceers on him.

Clems a lock for fwd pocket! Betts mk2.... Fingers crossed for Fantasy

This selection is still as baffling as ever.

Blowing a first-round pick on a developing low-possession half-back vs taking the gun local kid who otherwise would have gone in the Top 5.

What was Ogilvie thinking?

 

[Cleric]

Even posters like Kristof must have come around on this one now.

 

[Milanista28]

Big mistake.

I think the talk was his leg was as poor a prospect as JOM knee at the time can be the only thing that turned so many clubs off him.

 

[Ian Dunross]

Crows were crying out for a midfielder

Any good mids taken after pick 14?

Big difference between a knee and broken leg.

Stringer went top 5 the year after breaking his leg.

His leg break was very high up and wrecked his knee as well

While some i.e. Nathan Brown never get close back to their best

It was not only the leg break he also broke his kneecap.

Was more like a car crash injury so I can see why some were put off.

However on the Hawks board at the time we had a few supporters from SA preying he would slip through to us.

Was touted as a top 5 certainty at one stage and some very good judges in SA had him as number 1.

 

[TheGrizz]

I'll admit that on current progression and output it Doesn't look good for the crows

However also but Doedee hasn't played a game yet.

Wait till their collective careers are over maybe?

What happened to that Gore kid the Crows got for some midfielder they traded?

Doedee's will be over pretty soon.

Christian Howard mk2

Christian Howard mk2

Maybe, but let's wait for that to happen before we make the assessment
He was drafted less than two years ago though, doubt they drop a top 20 pick after two seasons

 

[Drewie11]

Doedee's will be over pretty soon.

Christian Howard mk2

Big call to write someone off after 2 years.

Ah well I guess Harry Mckay is done also then, Scott Gumbleton mk2

Big guys take longer to develop - big difference between him at Doedee who isn't even playing well at state level.

Just a nothing pick

Similar to DVR/Howard, you can see he's an average choice pretty early on. No redeeming features

He hasn't played yet, what features at all have been on display to make such an assessment

 

[King_Steele]

Crowbots gonna bot!

Gresham, Dunkley, Fiorini, Mathieson.

We always here big guys take longer to develop.... but why has Weidemann and Hipwood played already.

Just face it Harry McKay was a terrible pick then also

Inability to play well at reserves level as a second year first round draft pick drafted into a good team is one

Has Weideman played a game this year?

Nice deflection

 

[TheGrizz]

He has, 6 games actually (do some research next time maybe?)

Besides You literally just defended McKay not playing due to big men taking longer. Which one is it then?

Re Doedee not playing well...
He had a knee injury all preseason and didn't play first two rounds. There wouldn't be many players who would tear apart a season straight away with that start. Been good last month through
Again, maybe some research is worth your time?

 

[Drewie11]

4 this year and 3 last year I believe so 7 more than McKay and in a better team.

Idaho potato I guess then?? We are 2 years in and McKay and Doedee could still become good players. You shouldn't write them off before their first afl contract is even finished.

At the moment Doedee needs to force Laird, Brodie Smith, Luke Brown or Jake Lever out of the team.
