Draft Review 2008 - Re-do the 2008 draft

[Wild Bill]

Rocky gets under rated on this thread. NN way to high now IMO. The bloke can't even get on the park.

Missed him!! Will update my list.

Well yeah, given he's in rehab after a knee reco.

Excluding the start of the 2017 season, he's only played 3 fewer games than Rocky over the previous 5 years.

Is that Liam Picken above Stephen Hill. I know nobody gives him the dues he deserves, but you'd rather Liam Picken in your team than Hill?

Has been a while since this thread has been discussed - IMO Sloane has gone to number 1.

1 - Sloane
2 - Hannebery
3 - Nic Nat
4 - Beams
5 - Shuey
6 - Sidebottom
7 - Bruest
8 - Hurley
9 - Rockcliff
10 - Ziebell
11 - Picken
12 - Davis
13 - Hill
14 - T Lynch
15 - Walters
16 - Shiels

No motlop, You're crazy, Trengove bit stiff given he's a solid key defender.

It it was a list of most talented - yes he would by high up. Just not consistent enough for me. His bad is really bad.

I think Sloane is better than Hannebury atm but not so in full body of work. Isn't Hannaz a 3 time AA? Don't think Sloane has ever received one.

Sloane has 1.

IMO if I was drafting players today I would start with Sloane - he was gone to an incredible level since Danger left.

 

[Silent Alarm]

Walters is about nine times better than Stephen Hill.

He has the skills of Hill but most importantly actually uses his opposite foot, and quite notably can back himself to do things and has so much arrogance it sometimes makes him appear about twice his height. Stephen Hill is incredibly overrated by everyone, really.

Jetta is the stand out miss on this list. Bitterly disappointing and just got dropped again.

you sure you talking about Beams. 58 games in the last 3 seasons ain't bad.

 

[freo_leo29]

Hill is still criminally underrated

 

[Kakkle]

Jetta is the stand out miss on this list. Bitterly disappointing and just got dropped again.

Lewis Jetta went in the 2009 draft. This would be Neville.

Should have clarified. Meant Neville Jetta from Melbourne. Very good player, underrated

 

[robertg22]

Sidebottom is so overrated these days.

Yeah he frustrates me at times but is a very consistent player. Could swap anyone on my list from 5-12 and I wouldn't complain too much.

Sorry - another underrated player. Having a good year.

Good list - Jetta, Walters and Shuey too high for me.
Hartlett doesn't make top 30 either based on output. Watts is well ahead of him. He is like Motlop without the good games

Which Davis?

 

[ThePuppetMaster]

Good draft, a lot of good players - also not a lot of superstars and a few very talented but inconsistent types.

But overall great depth.

 

[Silent Alarm]

What a shit draft cop if Naitanui, Sloane, Hannerbury are considered your top picks.

 

[robertg22]

Good list - Jetta, Walters and Shuey too high for me.

I'm a big Jetta fan and Walters always carves up the Pies so I rate him highly too. Shuey is good but admittedly would be happy to slide him down a couple. I thought he would have been an absolute elite mid (has threatened to get there at times) but he's a rung below the best.

Hartlett doesn't make top 30 either based on output. Watts is well ahead of him. He is like Motlop without the good games

Hartlett isn't that bad. Has more talent than he has shown but still a solid contributor most of the time.
