Me when we didn't draft a ruck with a first round pick:

You wouldn't have fancied Curtin, Goad and Edwards?
 
That ruckman Griffin also. And Daniel Shell, or perhaps he was just a trade from Freo. I am sure there must be a few more floating around like O’Connor
Chad Rintoul ….. Premiership Player

Chad Rintoul …. Crows Premiership Player …. Drafted from one the Fremantle clubs in the WAFL from memory

I still can't read or hear his name without going to the nickname my friends gave him - Chad Rinpenis

Great overall result with our picks tonight. Loved our aggressive move to trade up and grab our man. Curtin looks like a star, could be elite for us.

Edwards looks good too, another good pick.

Would have topped it off if we managed to get Goad with one of our picks. But I'll back Hamish with the Ryan pick for now, hopefully he turns out OK too.
 
Guess a question worth pondering would we have taken Goad if wasn't taken pick before .
Another question is there any chance we wouldn't honour promise to take Borlase and Hamill now back loaded to grab a ruck ,forward or another Hamish special.

Love our selections

Curtin looks an absolute weapon that will start in defence and hopefully at some stage can play midfield

Edwards looks like that explosive big body midfielder that we desperately need in our future midfield mix

Curtin looks to be the Smith replacement and might pass players like Parnell pretty quickly

I’m not convinced we would have drafted Goad, I think Demattia might have been the player we would have liked in our trio of selections

Ryan seems to have been picked for his penetrating kick out of the backline. Looks pretty deadly with it. Hopefully can develop some other attributes.

The Crows forward line got a lot of wraps last year but internally the club believes a major difference with our scoring was the springboard off half back - lots of metres gained/long kicking from Hinge, Milera, Smith. Even Murray and Worrell created a bit of drive.

Gee I love the way Mitch Hinge goes about his footy.

He had a great year but I feel he still has more improvement to come. Potential AA with 100 games under his belt.
 
Curtin the Smith replacement? I'm not seeing that.
Oscar Ryan more likely I would have thought out of the players we took tonight, similar wheels, aggressive user of the ball...way tougher than Brodie though.

Curtin replaces Lachie Murphy

Better at absolutely everything going on his highlights

I liked the look of De Mattia until I saw his Collingwood interview: no thanks.
