How many times did your club overlook Murphy Reid in last years draft?

[Stronzo]

Murphy Reid is shaping as the steal of the draft, already with figures that a seasoned player would be happy with, his pure footy smarts are a thing to behold.

He has that third dimension ability, just reads the game 3 steps ahead of most others and opens up time and space with the skills and mongrel to match.

So, as the title proposes, how many times did your club’s shit football department overlook the best Reid in the league?

Pick 17 btw…

 

[Werewolf]

Zero times. Our first pick was #20 - Cooper Hynes, who will be a gun IMO

The year before, everyone overlooked Joel Freijah. AKA the mini-Bont

 

[Grin]

Quite a few times, and he was a Richmond supporter. But not high enough injury potential for our recruiters tastes, so we let him slide

Even put AFL's lionel messi on ice!

 

[Rabish Binney]

Never heard of him

 

[springvale_mackers]

We didn’t overlook him but he looks like he’ll be a gun. What I love the most is his surname and how bad he’s making that other Reid look every week.

 

[TY24]

Fremantle rated him so lowly they tried to trade up the order to get someone else instead

 

[FurTheWin]

4 goals on debut away to a top side.. that's impressive. How bad must his teammates have been tho, that his first game memory is a 78 point belting?
Poor kid. No doubt he'll be heading back to Victoria in a couple of years.

Zero times

Also you traded in Shite Boltons, who isn't trying and traded out Schultz, who was

How many times did WC overlook him?

Contract extension says otherwise.

I think it’s fair to say that Bolton’s first year at Freo has already proven more successful than Shultz’s at wobblewood. If the trajectory continues like this, look out!

 

[Saveloy Rockstar]

What you should be comparing is Schultz's last season at Flogmantle

 

[TY24]

How many times did WC overlook him?

If you want to play that game - once, for the player you guys tried to trade up the order and get ahead of us.

Contract extension says otherwise.

And anyone with a brain knows that contracts mean nothing in sport these days

There there Geelong might give a you a low 3rd round pick for Harley

So he has.
I'm genuinely pleased for you.
Perhaps this can be something new in the Trade/Draft History of the Purples.

We didn't try and trade up for Bo Allen, we tried to trade up for Reid as we thought WC or Port would take him.

What you should be comparing is Schultz's last season at Flogmantle

Sounds fair considering we traded Shultz for basically the same price as Bolton. Bolton on track for a better season, more midfield minutes + clearances for a similar goal output. 66% winning rate compared to Shultz 43% so impacting the team result too.

We were trading up because we thought you were trying to get the awesome non-dickhead Reid.

I guess we were overestimating you guys!

May as well have gone pick 1 for the number of times we overlooked him

If Murphy is so much better than Harley, how come you jetty lickers can't go 5 minutes without comparing the two? Your obsession with him is very cute.

I swear you lot talk about him more than The Worst do.

It's probably because your newspaper is always spanking themselves into a foaming lather about him.

Nothing to do with the fact that it upsets you.

I knew he would be.
Fair's fair, if a WA kid wants to head back.
