Just having a browse at our line ups over the last two weeks which highlights what a great return we got from Scott Claytons first drafting effort for the club.

Having Murphy,Guido,Wiggins,Hahn,Bowden and Hargrave all playing and knowing that Gilbee would be playing if he wasn't injured is a fantastic return from the 99 draft. The biggest question marks remain on Wiggins and Bowden but both have the ability and we really just need them to reach their potential to become regular senior players. In hindsight, Clayton may have got a couple of selections wrong but it does seem that he scouted the list very well and made the most of the selections.

Which picks do you think he may have got wrong?

Bigland went the pick after Wiggins and Ling went the pick after Hahn so I suppose they would be considered better players.
I think he got every other pick spot on

I'm not convinced he's good at picking taller players.
It seems that he does prefer the midfielders and really Brisbane is not a big team either but just have enormous depth with their midfielder/running types
