I'm actually pretty excited for this guy, pace and skills, reckon he's got that look about him and in his eye that says he'll be a good player. Sometimes you can just tell by looking at a bloke if he's gonna be at least good or not gonna make it, and I reckon this guy is at least gonna be super handy.
I thought the same about Tim Flemming
 
Yep fudging the numbers as I suspected. Butler looks jake King sort of height too.



Just on looks he looks to me like he could be Chris Knight's brother....

Haha, be positive fellas!
Actually just watched the 16 minute inside draft video on RFC, pretty interesting.
Our recruiters were pretty happy with the draft! "Happiest I've walked out of a draft since...2008" said one Tiges recruiter.

I thought it was interesting also that Blair said when selecting Butler "when i saw him at the start of the year I walked away thinking "second round" " or something to that effect.

The excitement when they realised the big fella was going to be still there at 77 was infectious .

My missus was impressed.
The speed/endurance combo is the thing that impresses me. Fingers crossed, there's not too many 3rd rounders that make it.
Or even 4th rounders :D

I'm looking forward to seeing how that whole draft crop ends up shaping the club
 
My bad, forgot about Drummond as our 3rd.
Our 2014 draft has the potential to be a beauty.
Our best draft IMO.(not that it has much to beat).
Our first 3 rookies are all solid as well, Arnot was there because he was still contracted, who knows about Soldo
