Toast Pick 85 : Jeremy Finlayson Welcome Aboard

[captainMyCaptain]

Selection No.85 – Jeremy Finlayson (Hills Eagles/GWS Academy)
Stephen Silvagni says: "He's a bit of a developing tall who is known as a forward but will play back at times. Will probably take a little while but he's a nice kick. To get the two academy boys was fantastic."

Shocked. No way did I think he'd get through to us at 85. Absolute steal.

Do you mean from the pre-draft bidding?

No. I meant in tonight's draft.

No. I meant in tonight's draft.

We already had Jack Steele and Finlayson officially picked at numbers 24 and 85 pre-draft as academy players.

I'm not stupid. Just sarcastic. I didn't think I needed emoticons to make such an obvious observation.

Fair enough. I can honestly say that I was pretty sure you'd know, so it did leave me scratching my head a bit. It was possible that you were referring to the pre-draft bidding.

Dunstall had to have the pick "explained" though, since we passed on 72 and 80
