Re: 2004 Draft Re-Done

Surely Bate would be higher i believe than 19, he was injured this year and still had a game of 4 goals, a 29 possestion game againt hawthorn and a 10 mark game against Essendon. I would have him currently ahead of Williams, Maric and knights.

Dunno about that, Maric has been outstanding in the ruck for us since he came back into the side mid season, really stood up and as for Knights well, when fit, he consistently racks up 30+ possessions and is a line-breaking mid who will give you great drive from contests. Unfortunately he's had his season affected by injury and he always seems to take 3-4 matches to get back to his best. Should probably be higher than 19, but higher than Maric and Knights (havn't seen enough of Williams to comment), not so certain about that.
 
Re: 2004 Draft Re-Done

Daniel Pratt was just nominated to be AA and leads the competition this year for rebounds from 50 and yet Primsall, Slattery, Maric and Monfries ahead of him?

Yes very ignorant of them.

Though Pratt has the added advantage of being 'in the system' a few more years than the others. Regardless, he should be higher.

Re: 2004 Draft Re-Done

1. Franklin
2. Roughead
3. Griffen
4. Lewis
5. Deledio
 
Re: 2004 Draft Re-Done

Griffen is a funny player at the moment, just lacks a little awareness and needs a bigger engine. Great when he has the ball and a little bit of space but really needs to be able to work the ball out of heavy traffic and just find more of it to be considered an elite midfielder.

Next year could be the year he really blossoms, but at the moment I would jhave to put roughead and deledio ahead of him based on consistant good performances.

I like it, but Jesse Smiths done nothing to warrant #7. Nor has Prismall with #11. And Morton was taken in the 05 draft.

Also i find it astonishing theres no love for Luke McGuane :(

Gee cant tell who you barrack for!!!

Crows players: Van Berlo ahead of Lewis.....yea right
Knights ahead of an all australian centre half back ...yea right
Maric ahead of anyone on this list ....yea right

Naming Slattery in the top 20.......yea right. ohh and also naming him equal 20th. Brad Moran even named?? brilliant.

And crows supporters say they arent one eyed or daft.:rolleyes:

why do people have a hard on for van berlo??
just because he has got 40 possesions in a game before doesnt make him dominant. Most of those possesions are short chip kicks and chip pass' back to him. This is the crows style of play and just because you get heaps of the ball doesnt make you dominate.

Id argue tambling is a much more damaging (thus) dominate player, especially when he was being played as a creative half back/wingman later in the year.
Tamblings upside compared to Van Berlo's is enourmous.
 
Re: 2004 Draft Re-Done

Suprised the lack of respect McGuane gets. People seem to get a woodie over Tom Williams holding Buddy to 5 goals well McGuane was moved onto Buddy after he kicked 3 against more and held him goaless in the 2nd half.

He had other scalps and was more impressive as the year went on.

He is a versatile backmen who is decievingly strong and a great tackler. I would have him ahead of Hank Slattery and Prismall who I both think are just plodders.
