Draft Overall

[Salaryman]

Giving our draft a C+ for who we picked up from our draft position shows how little they know about the U18's.

It amazes me how Richmond got an higher ranking then us, esp when you consider they picked up an Essendon reject/discard and only 2 real 'kids' in the draft ..

Here here Gilly. Anyway, we don't need ignorant journo's who have probably never seen a game of U18's how we went in the draft.

They really need to take into account that Carlton signed a 206 cm ruckman for picks 24 and 56.

I don't know how they couldn't rate Carlton's 2007 draft as high as Richmond's and WCE's when our picks gave us Kreuzer, Judd, Browne and Armfield.

I don't know why they gave Essendon get a B plus for drafting Hurley, Zaharakis, Still and Slattery.

Or Brisbane a B plus for Rich, Redden, Banfield, Cornelius and McCulloch.

IF might have given us an A if we had drafted Hurley or Rich plus a tall forward.

At least they got Port right...

The perception was that Carlton needed a tall backman and since we did not recruit a backman it reduced our rating. (Maybe they rate drafts on a needs basis?)

If that is the case maybe they should look at the list rather than going on some other Journo's work.

O'hAilpin, Waite, Bower, Austin, Jamison. Thornton - all except one proven at senior level.

Forwards - Fevola, Hartlett, Edwards........???

Only one proven at senior level, other two would be lucky to play seniors again with injury/form.

So why is it we so depserately needed another tall defender? Based on our points against? What a joke.
