You pretty much wrote exactly the same thing as I wrote but with a positive spin instead of a negative one.We rated Clav really highly apparently, it was a no brainer to take him.
It’s the best drafting method in my opinion, just take the best player at your pick and the other stuff works itself out later on.
Browny may have 18 months left, Hugh is still nothing more than a big question mark and Austin at this stage is a good back up KPD.
Clav is still a long way off physically but investing in an intercepting KPD for the future is a very good move in my opinion.
It’s great for the future, but right now we need leg speed & fast ball carriers to take the next step IMHO now, not in 4-5yrs. Having 7 blokes that could be classified as KPDs on the list right now is overkill for mine (Brown, Carlisle, Goddard, Austin, Clavarino, Joyce & Marshall)
Agree that Clav is a great kid, let’s hope he becomes the next Rance
