These four drafts plus our existing core makes for some exciting reading.

Walker looks like he is one of the dorks off stranger things

Luff is indeed a North (and a Ross Lyon) fan.

 

[shinboner magic]

I think 2017 draftees will exceed the 2015 draftees - good times are coming

 

[Harris 10]

Luff is indeed a North (and a Ross Lyon) fan.

I believe he was a Fitzroy fan that switched to North when they merged with the bears.

Got a feeling we could be looking back on this draft as our 'Super Draft' in 5 years time. YouTube videos can be misleading, but geez, these blokes look better than anything we've drafted when reviewed against similarly packaged highlights from previous years. I reckon some blokes will be feeling a little uncomfortable with their positions over the next year or two. Bring on the JLT.

That would explain his love for Ross then.

I was thinking that exact same thing. Has talent obviously but a lot of filling out to do.

Let's give him #11.

Let's give him #11.

Let's hope he doesn't go missing like his namesake.

I know it's a big "if" but IF this latest crop come on like we hope, and we have another decent draft next year. THEN $1m per year and 2 first rounders doesn't seem like such great value for J. Kelly any more.

Added Morgan, Ahern and Xerri to complete the 22.

Luffy is THE best analyser out there. King has been ripping off Luff's view for years.

If it was American Sports he'd be one of the highest paid special comments commentators in the game.

Fortunately for us we have Luke Darcy, Ben Dixon and Brian Lake instead......

Went to high school with Glenn. Saturday at the Luff household involved him, his dad and younger brother sitting in front of the TV taking stats on note pads and comparing them at the breaks.
This was the early 90's

 

[Mixed Results]

A bit of a random thought, but every player that we drafted this year has a former teammate with them on the list with the exception of Will Walker, who will be reunited with Joel Crocker next year.

LDU = Murphy
Hayden = Narrier
Xerri = Junker
Hartung = Jed

Forget the coaches box. I would love to sit at the table draft night.
You can only imagine the conversations had when they asked for a time extension. Would love to know what was said when they paused and huddled before taking Ben Brown.

Interesting that Luffy had Wil Walker rated around the 20 mark.
