Was Brodie Grundy a steal? How many times did you pass on him again?No doubt he has talent but just not sure it’s a steal .... after everyone else had passed numerous times
Someone needs to put the steal of the draft Draper in the thread title. If this kids huge upside develops you have a replacement for De goey if leaves or anging stars in pendles, elliot and sidy.Getting Draper at 45 is such a steal.
That was SOS ..... everyone else wanted him .... here no one wanted DraperWas Brodie Grundy a steal? How many times did you pass on him again?
17 other clubs passed on Dane Swan 4 times... there are steals in draftsNo doubt he has talent but just not sure it’s a steal .... after everyone else had passed numerous times
Even if you leave GWS/SOS aside, why did half the clubs in the AFL pass on Grundy then?That was SOS ..... everyone else wanted him .... here no one wanted Draper
Is it really a steal when no one else wanted him?
Maybe - Maybe Not
I think the ridiculous is in trying to draw a comparison between Grundy going at 18? vs a lad who was passed up by every team 3 timesEven if you leave GWS/SOS aside, why did half the clubs in the AFL pass on Grundy then?
By your logic if recruiters don't make mistake then Grundy was bound to be a failure?
It sounds ridiculous because that's what your logic is.
The Pies did a late live trade to steal him from Essendon's clutches.No doubt he has talent but just not sure it’s a steal .... after everyone else had passed numerous times

Except for Geelong who drafted Jackson Thurlow and Fremantle who drafted Josh Simpson and Gold Coast who drafted Jesse Lonergan and North who drafted Taylor Garner and Carlton who drated Troy MenzelThat was SOS ..... everyone else wanted him .... here no one wanted Draper
Dean was a fantastic pickupAnd a key defender in Charlie Dean.
Can't be any more pleased with the outcome last couple days.
I was referring to Gws people .... those other teams have regularly messed up draftsExcept for Geelong who drafted Jackson Thurlow and Fremantle who drafted Josh Simpson and Gold Coast who drafted Jesse Lonergan and North who drafted Taylor Garner and Carlton who drated Troy Menzel

No current season stats available
For a side that seemingly traded out pick 2 for about 20c on the dollar they certainly seem to have landed on their feet. Rate every one of these pick ups
Can't have everything. I think they'll move on quickImagine they had pick 2 though? Coulda taken Callaghan or Rachele aswell as Daicos.
Got great value for what they ended up with though.
