Confirmed ITK Drafting King
AFAIC if Watts explodes one year in his late 20s and it coincides with a premiership he's justified us taking him at #1. This is basically all I'm holding out for with Jack now haha.
Also, I would not be trading Jimmy Toumpas for a top 10 pick. Sure he might be a dud but all we get with a draft pick is chance to select another dud. You can tell that he loves the club and there's never been any talk since day one at all about him potentially going home, such is how well he's transitioned in. Everyone speaks very highly of him and he's already stuck fat and worked hard for two years through misery. There's no point in hiring guys like Crossy to mentor Toumpas and co through adversity if you're just going to cut them after two years if they don't star immediately despite showing noting but loyalty. It sets a very bad cultural precedent.
Do I wish we'd picked Wines or Macrae? Sure. But we didn't. And now it's time for us to suck it up, take responsibility for the pick, and help Dimitri turn it around.
I do admire your confidence
This stage of the season im flipping through the youtube videos of this years draftees and working out how to trade everyone
