Not to rub it in too much but i do scratch my head about Freos recruiting when they pass up players in positions they desperately need for more mids a position they are already strong in. Players like Yeo, Darling, J. McGovern, M.McGovern, Lever, M.Adams etc
I can actually understand them knocking back Yeo - no one would have known at that stage what an absolute ripper he would turn out to be. He hadn't really shown a whole lot at Brisbane up to that point, other than being a good honest player, and we had recently recruited Sheridan, Crozier, Neale, Sutcliffe, PLUS we were coming off the GF and we still had Tendai and Clancee and Duff playing decent footy. It still hurts when I think of how Yeo turned to the crowd and gave it to them at the Freo home derby after he kicked a goal last year. I remember thinking, you would have been part of this crowd up till a few years ago...
But yeah, missed an opportunity with Yeo, and certainly agree on all the others you mentioned above.
