others come to mind are fiora (TRADED) and Petifer (not much one can say other than he isnt very good).
Yeah Fiora has been dissapointing but i suppose he at least has played 91 games.91 more than Danny Roach, as an example.I haven't given up on Pettifer.He's 21 so I wouldn't write him off just yet.Danny didn't have a clue how to play him.i think he could well flourish under Wallace.I'll get back to you in 12 months and be happy to concede defeat if he turns out a dud.
wouldnt mind some first round success stories for the tigers.
Yeah me either but we've been swapping our 1st rounders for marquee players.Last year was Kane johnson,this year was Nathan Brown.Probably our 2 best players.
The only other 1st rounder in recent memory that we've used was on Schulz at #12.He won a rising star nom in 2004, so I'd hardly call him a fairlure.I'm sure your counting McDougall as a "sucess",rightly so.
Incidently Hartigan played every game this year as an 18 year old taken at pick 70.Jwatch out for Jackson next season.Taken at pick 50 odd.
i think every draft has 1-2 top 10 players that dont make it. only 20-30 players from each draft make 100 games, law of averages say they wont all come from the first 20 picks.
Agreed.I'm rapt we re taking 8 players in this draft.About time!
