How bout the 211cm dual AA , how did u miss him

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Boyd? In the top ten?

 

[collingwood1992]

maxwel in front of sewell will make this thread erupt

 

[Rhino1966]

I hate the Eagles but Cox is the standout for me

Considering the entire list, and who is missing, the positions are hardly worth worrying about.

 

[Goobernutty]

No Davey?

 

[Just Kick It]

No Mal Michael either. He was originally a rookie selection by the pies. Surely he s better than some of the names put forward!

 

[HSSB]

Bock and Morris? hahahahahaha

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Keneally shouldnt be included. He was hardly a rookie in the "overlooked in the National Draft" sense of the word.

 

[krusden]

maxwel in front of anyone will make this thread erupt

efa.

It should. Maxwell has improved but no way is he as good a player as Brad Sewell.

Another curious omission is Max Rooke. They're trying to say Tadhg Kenneally is a better player? Don't think so (They've got him ahead of Sewell too - ridiculous).

he was a rookie? if he was he streets ahead of most of the list IMO.

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Does that really say Russell Robertson?

 

[Pheasant Plucker]

Bock and Morris? hahahahahaha

Why are you upset about either? Both are fantastic players?

 

[Prem87]

Rutten?

 

[omit]

quite a few players missing from the list

 

[Wally Carter]

Playing for Collingwood obviously has it's advantages.


Nick Maxwell - 118 games, 12.9 possessions, 4.5 marks, 0.2 goals, 2.6 tackles.

Michael Firrito - 127 games, 13.4 possessions, 3.7 marks, 0.2 goals, 2.6 tackles.



I'll take comfort in the knowledge that Leigh Adams, Matt Campbell, Nathan Grima and Marcus White will all make their way in to that list in 5 or 6 years.

 

[WALL-e]

Bock and Morris? hahahahahaha

It's amusing hearing from people in Adelaide who barrack for an interstate team, their hatred runs so deep.

God forbid a B&F, AA and best CHB in the league be included.

And Morris is the best medium defender in the game imo.

James Mcdonald - 235 Games, 17.5 possessions, 3.7 marks, 0.2 goals, 3.7 tackles - 2x club b&f, AA, captain

but apparently Maxwell > Mcdonald

Excellent pickup.

 

[HugeJohnson]

Dean Brogan?

 

[afc9798]

Dean Brogan?

Valid point, but he would behind Cox in the ruck stakes and probably behind Sandilands (even though he wasn't listed either).

 

[Gone Critical]

Wouldnt have Maxwell in that high but great year in 2009

Lockyer has been Pies best pick up via the rookie draft on my reckoning and Harry O'Brien may take that mantle by career end.

 

[Archimedes]

He would be easily behind Sandilands. The fact Sandilands and Rutten were not on the list, IMO instantly removes any credibilty it may have had.

Agreed.

Jennifer Witham has let the side down again.
