Franklin 1 and Lewis 2 in the 2003 Draft?

[Beckers]

Griffen and deledio are freaks. Buddy may turn out to be better than the lot in my opinion. At the moment and though i would not have lewis near these guys. He doesn't recieve the attention of the other 3 from opposition. Until he does and how he deals with it will see where he ends up.
1 Deledio
2 Griffen
3 Franklin
4 ..........
Lewis not quite yet.

Buddy doesn't recieve the attention of the opposition?????????????????????????????????????????????

 

[thepower]

is h2f obsessed with richmond? threads are getting boring.

i cant believe tigers cans havent brought up the ol chestnut:

pick 1 - hodge
pick 3 - judd

If we were to have a draft for the players in the 2003 today Jordan Lewis would struggle to make the top 10 for mine. He is a currently ahead of pretty much all but I don't think he has as much scope for improvement as Deledio, Griffin, Franklin, N.Ablett, Wood, Tambling, Polo or Sherman. I would draft:

1. Franklin
2. Deledio
3. Wood
4. Griffin
5. Polo
6. Lewis
7. N.Ablett
8. Tambling
9. Sherman
10. Rosa

It is not about what they have done to date it is about what they can do for the club over their career.

Edit: Actually are we not talking about the 2005 National Draft here???

 

[Beckers]

1. Griffen - Think his best will be the most consistent over the next 10 years.
2. Franklin - His best is better but I think he'll blow hot and cold. I think coaches might work out how to contain him and he might struggle.
3. Lewis - Haven't seen enough of him but he sure does get it a lot
4. Delidio - Just looks lost sometimes. Not a natural footy brain. Will still develop into a pretty good player though.

He does blow hot and cold but as far as coaches working out how to contain him, he has too many strings to his bow! Too tall or too quick.......take your pick? On his day he is unstoppable.
Play a Ray Hall on him and he will kill them at ground level. Play a small on him and he will out mark them. Buddy is a freak and his best possible match up would be Goodes or Kouta (4 years ago). Roos will not sacrifice Goodes to matchup Buddy!!!!

 

[The Mongrel Punt]

How bias can you get.
Deledio and Griffen are ten times better than Lewis.

Not on this years form, champ.

 

[W. Smithers]

What teams will start doing is using a rebounding defender who is also a good stopper. Doesn't have to be tall really, as Franklin is not a great mark.

The rebounding defender can run off Franklin all day and Franklin will be sitting at 60 waiting for the easy ball.

 

[Deledio2Conca]

I enjoy your posts so I believe your response, but there is no doubting Lewis is twice as good as Deledio.

LOL You ask us not to be biased, so when some neutral supporters say Griffen and Deledio are better than Lewis you shoot em down. Laughable.

 

[The Mongrel Punt]

So you'd judge this on a single game performance?

Noting, that both Deledio and Griffen recieve heavy tags every week, while Franklin plays on the Half Forward Flank?

Yeah, his opponents wouldn't go near him, right? I mean, forwards aren't allocated backmen these days, according to your logic.

1- Franklin
2 - Griffen
3 - Sherman
4 - Deledio
5 - Lewis

Yeah, becuase Griffen's 9 disposals a game off the HBF demand that he cops a tag .

 

[Captain_Brown_7]

If it were held tomorrow would any unbiased fan not take...

Franklin at 1

and

Lewis at 2

These threads are difficult because you will be tempted to disagree because I am a Hawthorn supporter.

Can you be objective for a minute and say otherwise.

Lewis>>>>DAYLIGHT>>>>>Griffen

Deledio would be lucky to be top 10.

YOU F**KIN KNOB! It was the 2004 draft

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA....just proves how what a dumb f**k you really are....

 

[hellfire]

Can you be objective for a minute and say otherwise.

Well, there goes the 1 minute of non-bias already.....

What a tool you must be TGlory. You idiot.

What and you're not biased? You act like your opinion IS the answer. Shut up already, you overrate those guys massively.

 

[tazhawk]

IMO the top 5 would be

1. Buddy
2. Griffen
3. Sherman
4. Lewis
5. Deledio

I have yet to see him outmark anyone - tall or small. Now that I've said that he'll probably take 15 marks against us!

If he can move into the midfield like Goodes then yes, very hard to stop.

Not sure that he can and he is also a very poor mark overhead and always swings onto his left boot.

I'll get a better look at him this week. Hopefully I'm right.

You idiots who don't watch anything but your own team but comment like hero's give me the absolute sh!ts...

For all the crap I get at least I am factually correct and watch most games.

P.S. The Tigers played really well last week. If your confused, well I call it like I see it.

LOL. Love the music from the Rocky movies H2F.

I was at that game. I think he went on to miss that goal IIRC.

But yes, he can take a mark and is proving it more often every game this season.

Thanks Minerboy

Buddy can't mark...

DDDDDDDEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRR!!!

 

[CrazyQ]

Id go

1. Brett Deledio
2. Jordan Lewis
3. Lance Franklin
4. Ryan Griffen
5. Richard Tambling
6. Justin Sherman
7. Matt Rosa
8. Dean Polo
9. Jarryd Roughead
10. Ryley Dunn

What has Ryley Dunn?

 

[H2F]

What has Ryley Dunn?

wtf has Polo done?

He can't even get a game in a side that is 0-5 and injury riddled.

POLO = Over-rated hack.

Polo is definately better than Ryley Dunn.

Polo has shown he can attack and contribute going forward (29 possies and 3 goals in his first game) and also negate other players while doing his tagging jobs.

Dunn has shown he cant get on the ground.

 

[lids2004roar]

H2F I enjoy most of your anti-tiger antics but then you have outbursts of insanity.

Dean Polo has won 2 BOG anzac medals. One for murdering Buddy, the other for murdering Dowler.

Polo has won 1 medal for BOG in the dreamtime match (plus 3 votes of course) proving he can be a dominant player at AFL level.

With 3 BOG medals in 12 months how can you call him a hack?

He was dropped possibly for missing training but not due to poor form. He had 24 possies the week before. Keep your Tiger-bashing to a tolerable level because it's posts like these that just piss people off because they are just plain wrong.

I saw an opportunity to get up him, given his year thus far. In fairness I haven't seen many of his VFL games and the one I did see he played well.

Not sure why he is labelled such a superstar when he is playing seconds footy, but wasn't aware that it might be due to attitude. Either way nothing to write home about.

I saw Polo play last year and in his debut looked sensational, since then he has been ordinary at best. I think a lot of people just pumped him up because of a couple of games last year. At the moment it's a bit of a waiting game before we label him star or dud, although Tiger fans like yourself would be better placed to judge him than me.

I just get annoyed at people who keep saying Polo this, or Polo that, when you can clearly tell they haven't seen him except against the Bombers last year.

 

[prettyboy]

Interesting, if you were talking purely the 5 games this year Lewis would certainly be in front of Griffin and Deledio.

Mark my words, no one has mentioned him yet but in three years time could be the best of the lot

Cameron Wood from the Lions.

You know whos better from lions.. Richitelli ( cant spell) what draft was he taken in?

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

wtf has Polo done?

Gone to a club with the most over-rated coach in the land.

 

[HFC082]

Sherman is excellent.
