Draft Review 2008 - Re-do the 2008 draft

[Wild Bill]

still not as good as Hannerberry.

That is a fact!

No - that is an opinion. So many posters struggle with the difference between an opinion and a fact.

Learn:

Its been 53 years since the Dee's won a flag - fact
It will be at least another 53 years before the next - opinion.

In what world is Garlett the stand out small forward from this draft?

Only because I consider Walters more of a midfielder than a small forward these days

 

[Wild Bill]

Ok maybe i was wrong on that. He does however get totally tagged out of games and i stand by my call of having him at no 5 in the draft.
Behind Hannebery and Beams for midfielders in the draft

They both averaged 24 touches in 2017 - and that's a fact.

 

[Lance Uppercut]

There's no way on God's earth that Hurley is going top 5, even coming off his best season....He's a gun KP Defender, not a gun mid. Those are the guys who win you premierships....I was being generous in putting him in the top 10 for starters.

****ing lol.

Try winning a premiership without any good KP defenders. Midfielders are a dime a dozen

1 is a 3x AA.

That is also a fact

and

That is also a fact

1 has won 2 b&fs
1 hasn’t won 1

Both facts.

And fwiw - my opinion.

B&Fs >>>> AAs

negotiable.

So Shaun Higgines 2017 b&f is more valuable than Dylan Shiels 2017 AA gurnsey?

What’s your logic? A B&F is won against a pool of 40 players, with really only a handful of elite players amongst them. Competition for AA is far greater given you’re up against every other elite player in your position in the comp to win a spot.

So dale Thomas is better than Nathan Jones?

I think being recoginised by the coaches and club for consistantly playing well for your club is valued higher than the opinion of Gillon McLachlan, Kevin Bartlett, Luke Darcy, Andrew Dillon, Danny Frawley and co.

He had a higher peak.

1 AA is a bit different to myltiple AA's.

Remind me again how many 'premierships' Hurley has won for the Bombers?

LOL indeed!

It's a very shortsighted view. I can understand the logic when a player wins a B&F in a premiership year or very successful year for the club.

Reality is though you are only competing with other players at your own club and when the other players around you aren't very good it doesn't mean as much.

Trolling is just getting lazy these days. You're not even trying anymore.

Am I to take it that this is your way of disagreeing with my post?....Who is being lazy?....Come up with a decent counter argument or don't bother replying to posts.

Better yet....Offer us up your take on what the 2008 draft Top 10 should have looked like.

Anyone who puts Hurley ahead of Sloane doesn't know football or footballers.....Can't make it any plainer than that for you Lance.

Post number thanks....I'm not going on a hunting expedition just to satisfy you.

I don't care if you do or don't you zuchinni.

I have seen your top 10 though and the fact you have Walters, Beams and Shuey ahead of Hurley clearly shows that you are the one who knows nothing about football, not Lance.

Dear Lord....And you call others trolls.

1. Can't offer sufficient arguments for their opinions.
2. Too lazy to think beyond 'Hurley's' my player & anyone who disagrees with my opinion on him is a troll.
