  1. MASTERS S Masters

    Josh Fraser ??
     
  2. MatthewJay TA Miokovic

    Fraser was a star
     
  3. Youngman JE Harding

    Player over 150 games, can't be that bad
     
  4. morgieb MC Burridge

    Has Kreuzer done much?

    But that was a bit of a shit draft anyway - only Cotchin (as well as Walker who was on a scholarship) has really performed.
     
  5. Dirk Diggler DM Diggler

    Kruezer did his knee which set him back.

    Kreuzer, Cotchin, Dangerfield, Rioli, J.Grimes, Taylor, Rance, Ward and S.Selwood all very good players from that draft.
     
  6. morgieb MC Burridge

    I take that back then.

    Worst was 1990 although it did produce Hird.
     
  7. Freddy MJ Johns

    Piss take?

    Agreed.
     
  8. Mousey AJ Son

    No-one remembers Michael Olowokandi then?
     
  9. Youngman JE Harding

    Kruezer is a jet, some of the shit he does, someone of his size just shouldn't be able to do
     
  10. MASTERS S Masters

    would not call Kreuzer a jet just yet
     
  11. Youngman JE Harding

    I would
     
  12. jazman84 JM Eightyfour

    How the fuck can you be 196cm tall and only be 88kg playing a professional sport, is the cunt anorexic or something?
     
  13. Dirk Diggler DM Diggler

    It's below the average but he's not a KPP so he gets away with it.
     
  14. Jager LO Townsend

    Still a strong looking lad though.
     
  15. Skippos SM Morgan

    Because it's his role. Extra weight beyond what he is now would be counter-productive. He's 6'5 and the fastest guy over 20 and 100 metres as his club by a considerable margin. He's the 2nd best agility runner too. His whole role relies on him being quick, agile, nimble but tall as well - extra muscle and weight becomes a burden to him given he rarely enters contests/needs it.
     
  16. MASTERS S Masters

    does the club even know where Jacks best spot is? surely after 5-6 years he would have a spot al least downpat
     
  17. MatthewJay TA Miokovic

    Goddard took ages to find his spot tbf.
     
  18. MightyPies DA Alessi

    Richard Lounder - 1987

    Played 4 games kicked 4 on debut. Played 3 more and went home back to SA, haha

    All draft picks in the early years were pretty terrible IIRC.

    But then there are some gold in there. In 1990 Hird went as #79. He was pretty much the only one that actually had much success at the AFL level.
     
  20. Mousey AJ Son

    The draft in the early years wasn't the main focus.
