2005 Draft team vs 2006 Draft team

[Baird]

2 teams that are compiled of players chosen in the 2005 draft and 2006 draft. They are pretty damn good teams, especially in contrast to other drafts in the Noughties. Which of these draft teams do you think is the best?;


2005

B: Hurn, Spangher, Ibbotson
HB: Birchall, A. Carlile, Ellis
C: Vince, Pendlebury, Murphy
HF: Douglas, Clark, D. Thomas
FF: Higgins, Kennedy, McGlynn
R: Ryder, Priddis, Jones
I: Swallow, K. Jack, Stokes, Porplyzia

2006

B: N. Smith, MacKenzie, Harbrow
HB: Frawley, Reid, Houli
C: Gray, Selwood, Gibbs
HF: J. Hill, Tippett, S. Edwards
FF: L. Thomas, Hawkins, Riewoldt
R: Goldstein, Kennedy, Boak
I: Jacobs, Armitage, Wellingham, Grigg

Would back the 06 team

 

[Red Black and Blue]

06 team. Equal or superior in every position bar the small/medium defenders.

 

[Chubberson]

06 but I reckon it's close if they're all at their best. Not so much on 2015 form.

 

[Mofra]

06 has a much better defensive unit, gets them over the line for me

FWIW, Patfull slots into the 2005 side. Unbelievable he has not received an AA yet. Completely underrated.

I'd take the 2006 side though.

He was rookied by Port initially and then re-drafted by Brisbane.

I realise that. Either way, still taken by us in the 2005 AFL Draft after being cut by Port and not playing a game for then. Just 2 games shy of 200 now. Felt he should still qualify.

Wasn't R gray and Westhoff both 06 draftees?
Would think that gray definitely makes it Westhoff probably
Edit
Just saw gray on a wing didn't expect to see him there
