Which WA player

[Kram]

From the 2008 draft who do you think will be the best player in the long term?

 

[Kram]

Probably could've put Swift in there as well, lets just make it out of the WA guys from the top 10 then

 

[gx122]

I pick Swift


voted Nic though

 

[DrTomSwift]

No idea, too early to tell. Who ever it is will be the best of the draft though

 

[Play by Numbers]

Swift.

Bring back state of origin, WA should have a pretty decent team in couple of years

 

[Play by Numbers]

Yep and for what its worth I think Hill will be an absolute gun.

Still voted for Naitanui though, but I think it could be close.

 

[Military_man]

Definately Nic Naitanui.

 

[inthesong]

You would think Natanui but its a fairly solid bunch there from WA.

Natanui can be anything and everything and also nothing too, similar too Yarran. Rich and Hill are more in the mould of a fairly solid career without standing out too much IMO as there are so many players in their position that have more talent i believe, where as Natanui particluarly and to a lesser extent Yarran are very much two of the most talented players in their respective positions.

 

[Rosstickle]

Rich. He should become and A grade player. Natinui might.

Hill and Yarran I don't really rate atm, although I haven't seen heaps of them.

 

[Axel.]

Rich.

 

[new breed]

Rich because capable of winning a Brownlow.

Natanui is worth his weight in gold , very valuable player for any AFL club and Chris Yarran is too good through juniors to not show up this year

 

[11sjw]

Rich is already a solid AFL player with a great left foot. If his aerobic capacity develops he will become a gun.

 

[WatWouldCyrilDo]

I voted Yarran out of pity - will never do anything of note in the AFL so thought i'd help him win atleast 1 thing.

 

[DarwinRoo]

Hill.

 

[Plugger35]

Hill for me too. Showed glimpses of his talent last season but was pretty inconsistent. His pace and skill are very exciting though, one of those players that excites the crowd whenever he gets his hands on it. Give him a few more years and he will be a star.

As good as Rich was last season he doesn't have anywhere near the upside of Hill. Not completely sold on Natanui or Yarran either, although both should develop into good players over time.

This.

I voted for Naitanui.

After watching Hampson develop over three years into a freakishly quick and powerful tall, NicNat is going to be something else altogether.

Yarran has the body language of someone who knows they're a more natural and freakish talent than the next player.

Will put a smile on many Carlton faces with just six touches that torch the opposition.

Good luck getting a fist in if Yarran is putting it lace out in front of Hampson, Waite, Henderson, Kreuzer, etc.

His left foot is every bit as good as his right.

Yazz will be scary when his work ethic matches his talent.

 

[pacemaker]

SELECTED Nick only because I see him as unbeatable in the tap-outs hitouts in 2012, The opposing ruckman may as well not even ruck just be the 5th man down at the centre bounce and the opposition reading it from his hand. I can actualy see this tactic being enfored. Probably by Kevin Sheedy for GWS, he always trys something new

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Hill, think he will be very special, got a bit of Matera about him.

 

[DrTomSwift]

I voted Yarran out of pity - will never do anything of note in the AFL so thought i'd help him win atleast 1 thing.

What besides getting traded back home only to become the one of the best players ever?

Great player, but reckon he'll be injury-plagued - hope I'm wrong though.

 

[Dormammu]

Yazz will be scary when his work ethic matches his talent.

He's either got it or he hasn't, and he hasn't. It's not something that you can pick up off a supermarket shelf.

Frustrated the hell out of me watching him play over here, he just can't commit to the full 100 minutes.

 

[Die Hard Eagle]

dont take it as overconfidence or arrogance from an eagle supporter but

TOM SWIFT is going to be an absolute SUPERSTAR

not even naitanui can stop that.

hill and naitanui next in line followed by rich

 

[patricksim]

swift or hill most skilled out of the lot imo yarran? garlett looks better

 

[morebeer]

What a great bunch of players.

I like Naita. His size and athleticism in the ruck gives him a massive advantage over his competition. He also looks very competitive which is a real skill in itself. He has the sort of frame where he will really fill out, his legs are already massive. A few pre seasons and he will be Buddy like in the upper body. I just don't see how a guy like Paddy can compete with that, even with his exceptional athleticism. Naita is taller, stronger, wider, more athletic and probably more competitive.

The Bombers could do with all 4. Lets just hope GC or GWS dont get a draft like this and dominate for years to come.
