Pick 30 would have netted StKilda any of Sam Reid, Allen Christensen, Nathan Vardy, Sam Shaw, Ben Stratton, Jess Chrichton, Dylan Roberton, Ben Sinclair, Dylan Grimes or Alex Silvagni. Others will come through as well, the players from that draft are still young.
Plus Wellingham and Goldsack were also on the table
Saints decided not to bother having a swing. Their call.
Instead they drafted Winmar (done nothing yet) Jess Smith (gone) Pattison (gone) Johnson (gone?) Dawson promoted (gone) and no rookies of note with the possible exception of Archer. Included on their rookie list was a retired player.
Saints had a stinker across the board. They totally botched everything about that trade week and the draft itself. They didnt think Ball was worth 30 and a player yet they thought Jesse Smith was worth pick 60.
Go figure.
