No 1 draft pick..nearly always a dud.

[yyou]

Apart from Drew Banfield most No 1's have been ordinary..Josh Fraser will take time to mature but I dont see him being a sensation and you already have Collingwood chasing another established ruckman...
Des Headland looks like he would rather be back in WA and destined to be another No 1 who didnt reach superstar status.Then you have the added problem of picking from interstate..would Hasleby have gone to Collingwood and if so how long would it have been before he wanted to go back.
Whats the betting StKilda dont get much joy from the No1 pick this year?

Ffs
Banfield was an absolute crab
Worst number 1 pick ever!

Of course
Judd in my best ever 22
Peter Matera would be close
Kemp
Oops all oldies
Ok new ones
Naitanui
Kennedy
McGovern

Drew Banfield was the best boundary rider.
