List Mgmt. 2015 Draft Prospects

[Apex36]

^^^^^

You Normally get at least a Decent player at player at Pick 1

Yes Dave, but the point is that most of the time, the player wouldn't be worth throwing away 2 or 3 talented players for. Remember the hissy fits that were thrown when we didn't pick up Xavier Ellis at pick 2 in '05? Would any of us be happy if we'd taken him in hindsight compared to Daisy?

If the 2013 draft was done over again now, would Boyd, or Bontempelli be pick 1? Fact is that you'll likely get a great player anywhere in the top 10-15, and the majority of the time pick 1 won't end up being the best player of the draft. Hence why Kappa was correct in saying that the number 1 pick is the most overrated commodity in the AFL.

I would not call them Total Busts though

None of them would warrant a top 10 selection if there drafts were redone you would be supper disappointed if you sold the farm to get them

You're right Dave, they aren't. But Cripps who they got at pick 13, will be better than the lot of them.

Kruezer is 26 and played 1 decent year when he was a kid.

Gibbs and Murphy are both squibbs, worthy of pick 15.

Swallow has been okay for the GC, nothing special.

Scully is finally playing good footy for GWS, but has never reached the pinnacle all of the football world thought he was destined too.

Patton might never make it.

Whitfield and Conigleo too early to say.


It's easy to get swept up on the hype bus for a number 1 draft pick but output is more often than not nothing better than what you get from pick 6 or 8 ect

Kruezer and Patton have had Terrible Injuries that Hold them Back.

I am not saying the Number 1 Pick holds there Value. Not many have.

Kruzers body was an issue before he made the AFL

Interestingly Twomey still has Weideman ranked within his top 10 prospects at this stage.

Parish and Tucker trained with us over a preseason didn't they?

Parish Did but not sure about Tucker.

Though that means Nothing

It means that we may know a little something about them and may have been exposed to something that other recruiters may not have.

TradeDraft , Dave, who do like for our pick around 10ish ?

I think we'll trade it, but assuming we didn't, who's your early pick ?

Whispers of signing (drafting) Hugh Greenwood

I heard he was about to sign an AFL contract. Didn't realise it was with us

 

[TradeDraft]

Found an Article said he is Joining the Crows:

He told the club last night he wanted to be released from his contract and will reportedly join the Adelaide Crows.

Will he? a few years into their careers people were saying murphy and gibbs were going to superstars. Even a few years ago murphy and gibbs were very good players.

Just my opinion.
Cripps wins his own footy. Gibbs & Murphy not so much.
Kid has a bright future.
