good draft without a first rounder, they've all shown good development.

Once Stengle and Bolton add another 10kgs… holy s**t man they’re gonna be unreal.

 

[Bojangles17]

We did good , I expect all of those lads to be good players for the RFC

 

[THE_GUN]

Im excited about the 5-6 players we will get in this years draft

OUT:
Lennon -22
Batchelor -26
Maric - 32
Morris -29
Hunt - 27
Elton - 24
Yarran - 27

All will be replaced by Kids and we could become the youngest or bottom 4 youngest team next year

We will notbecome the youngest or bottom 4 youngest team, and neither we should. We're trying to win the flag, teams that young don't

With Graham and Bolton, it feels like we got two first rounders.

Graham played mainly forward though?? Did this joker watch our games?

I mean he did rest up forward but midfield was his game. Not sure how anyone could say with a straight face that he was "mainly" a forward.

Scariest part about graham is that he played least time on ground in all of his games and still had the impact that he did, wait till he builds that tank over the preseason

woweeeee

I thought we already were, this would have to go close to making us the youngest! our best 22 at the end of the year was pretty much always younger than our opponents.
Hampson turns 30 in March and he's the eldest on our list. 1 30yo at the start of 2018 as reigning premiers. I like.

And we gave up our second rounder for Hampson. Guess it doesn't really matter too much now but would have been good if we called have jagged a tall from that draft. Lobb didn't go until 29, not sure how we was rated at the time or if we even considered him.
