If Cockatoo getting no ball is all people can pick out if that game, you mustn’t know how football works.

Put it in the book.
I've seen this kid play enough footy to know that he is a rare talent.
Players like Hogan, Petracca, Cripps, Weitering, Schache, Bontempelli, Stringer etc are spoken of as being the next wave of superstars. Don't get me wrong as all these guys will be elite players in their own respective rights, but Cockatoo will be better than all of them.
Cockatoo has all the tools such as the speed, agility, skills and vision to become a champion of the game, and since he is playing for the club that develops players better than any other club in the league, I know for a fact that we will have no trouble developing him into a champion.

At least he's still 24 years old, plenty of time to get the fitness up.

Work in progress getting his fitness and speed back up to the new standard and yeah, perhaps we rushed him to try and get him into finals impact but thats a risk you take. Will be better for it next year.

Was this for Hogan being mentioned? He 100% was touted as a future superstar back in 2016. Rising star, kicking 44 goals in his debut season in a Melbourne side that won 7 games?

Hogan will never ever be the player that people were hoping for.

… obviously. But that post was made in 2016 and the mention of Hogan being a future star of the league was very common back then.
Don't they have backfire tags on the main board?
He and Cripps have a bit in common

Richmond of the "no top 10 draft picks for 10 years, leading up to three flags" era says hi.
Pretty sure they develop players at least as well as the Cats.

id blame Scott for Cockatoo's lack of development,crucified him as an 18yr old and threw him to the wolves called Hawthorn in rd.1 2015 or '16 getting smashed by, 10 goals WTF was Scott thinking
Malcolm Blight once admitted hed probably ruined a young Mark Neelds future as a footballer by playing him key position Full back at age 20 against the
monsters of the day mid-late 90's,said he was too young,not ready and it was his(Blights)fault he never came on
so the scats have history

I think most people (including myself) interpreted your comment as "no top 10 picks 2008-2017".

He said “no top 10 picks for 10 years, leading up to 3 flags”. 2007 - 2017 is 10 years leading up to those years. Conca and Vickery still count btw.

Both within 10 years of winning your premiership. Cotchin's first season was 2009 and Dusty's was 2010.
And Vlaustin
