Was a better kick than half our squad, but being his size he needed a bit more than that.
I thought he was defensively solid. His kicking was more than decent, but his gimmick (that pulling the kick late into a controlled 3/4-power chip was just his normal kicking action) was worked out in about 30 minutes at AFL level.

He also struggled to kick more than 35m.

Underrating of Snook there.

Plus neither of them are defenders like Curran and Gould.
Lyons played nearly 200 games at AFL level and dominates VFL, while Partington was their best midfielder before the year off, both are clearly better players than Snook. Parnell can play wing/half back.

He's a 4 time BnF, runner up in the Magarey, 4 time Advertiser Team of the Year player, he's no slouch. Lyons probably comes in and plays at a higher level but im not sure Partington does.

Parnell isnt a key defender like the other 2, plus Curran is a pseudo-coach.

Partington has always had minimum hurt factor clearly why he didn't last long in the AFL.

Never saw anything in the AFL from Parnell, zip nothing nada.
Wasn’t even a great kick at that level, which was supposedly his 1 wood.
 
Hmmm, he was a very good kick
Not from the couple of games I saw from him.
His career average disposal efficiency shows as below average, maybe he can’t handball?
(Pretty much every stat is below average)

Yeah it seemed a strange move at the time and it still does.

I get talent order and whatever, but the mudseason draft is primed for that sort of thing.
It's a perfect opportunity to take a project player, yet we continue to fluff it.

Who was the Bays player we took which was absolutely bizarre.

If we have a spare spot this year, we need to take a project ruckman if we don't address this in the draft.

Yep, forgettable.

Was a bizarre selection that I don't think anyone on this board could understand at the time.
 
Pretty sure the usuals defended
I don't really count them.

I disregard those who are always positive or negative about everything our club does... as irrelevant.

I genuinely believe it was to try and snare a SANFL flag, weakening a rival in the process. There's no other explanation.
