Operation Don't Get Aish

[Markfs]

i tend to agree with the original post. We shouldnt get aish, we should get freeman....

 

[Unknown Identity]

Well That would be Great

and Have McCarthy go home anyway

You dont know that.. different environment and in the footy state.

Worst case we would have actually traded him and got more than the draft pick we gave up if not no loss on investment.

We turned Freeman and a 2nd round pick into Aish.

You don't know that. All we know is that the kid is suffering from some serious mental health issues and is desperate to stay in WA.

What Wrong With That

McCarthy might been like Schaxz or Freeman IF we did drafted him

Because I'm incredibly lazy can I ask that someone compile a list here of the players taken in the first round?

Thanks in advance, you're a champion.

Cripps at 13 aye? What a steal that is in hindsight.

 

[loki04]

Cripps at 13 aye? What a steal that is in hindsight.

It will be looked back on like the 2001 super draft.

There is star quality players all the way down.

 

[lethalburns]

I don't know if he is playing restricted minutes but he doesn't appear to be in the action very often. Every now and then he pops up on a wing and gets a cheap kick. I would have preferred we got another couple of players in the draft but I guess Hine didn't rate it.

Who said they be better?

Aish is still not Fully Developed.

Bizarro-2001

 

[regpies]

He spent 2yrs in Brisbane so we've got to re-educate him after 2yrs of 'development' in Brisbane. If he is still struggling at the end of next year then you'll know

Agree. That end of Next Season IF he stays injury Free - You get better Idea on IF he is going to Make It

 

[Smoky]

That mullet is so much better than the hair cut he has now.

 

[Saintly Viewed]

Aish is ok.
He just doesn't know yet that he has to impress BigFooty magpies, err wait...
We sponsored him.
Pull your finger out...
I have great faith he'll be ok

Great post , still young give him time his very first year showed he can play, give him 18 months he will be very very handy

 

[Go Woods]

Yep! Is now clearly the number 1 player from that draft

If only we had a crystal ball.

I'll take responsibility for starting the Aish movement. He'll be fine.

 

[Go Woods]

We certainly got our two top 10 picks wrong in 2013

I been a Aish Fan since before the 2013 Draft and I was Sad we too Schranberg over Him

Don't Count out Schranberg quite yet

 

[Temploar]

Nobody could have predicted what would have happened to either of the players.

Both look immensely talented, just injury prone. Scouting for injury proneness is extremely limited and in Scharenberg's case the issue was with his feet not with the luckless ACL's he has done.

Neither is the Club Fault. Just Shocking Luck with Injuries

I'd much rather have Bontempelli, Cripps is a bull but his disposal isn't great

 

[regpies]

We needed a half back (Shaz) and we needed some pace (Freeman). At the time they were the right picks, just really unlucky with injury. In 7yrs time Shaz might even become the best player from the draft, who knows, Hodge took a while but over a whole career he has probably just pipped Judd.

From what I remember we were after Bontempelli and Salem, both of them look to be really good players.
