Way to get rattled over nothingYour point about premiership window was dumb as dog s**t and you know it.
That's the point.

Was busy for the whole thing, what did I miss?
I agree he clearly wasn't first preference but I don't think it was a **** it let's just pick him situation, I think they generally rate him but know he will take a long time.I'm just more pessimistic because we needed a key forward which means we were more likely to roll the dice on a player, combine that with how desperate we were to move on the pick and this feels like a * it let's see what he can do rather than a s**t yeah we got our man.
So the club knew no one rated Jefferson in the top 20 so we tried to move up the draft so we could get a better player and Jefferson as steak knives? Hardly inspires confidenceJason Taylor wanted to get up a little bit higher in the draft to get Jefferson according to Cal Twomey. Also, WCE were super keen on Jefferson. if he was a WA kid then WA would've got him.
It's usually me that bashes players. Jason Taylor deserves more credibility. Taylor is a no nonsense guy. He would've seen something in Jefferson that gave him the confidence to pick him early.
I hope we pick up another key forward with 37. Or trade up and get Gruzcewski
Highly underrated trade by Norf.
GWS the only club who rated Cadman 1 so Norf traded 1 and in return got the 2 players they rated 1 and 2
You're basically agreeing with everything I'm saying but choosing to be weird about it.
Like for the first time ever I kinda want a top draft pick to bust just to avoid the relentless bullshit gloating if he plays even mildly well.
I just hope the supporters and the club don't look at Jefferson as the key forward saviour and instead use him as a 3rd tall while he develops, get him up the ground etc.Positives, we still have two first round picks next year, could easily fill a KPF void and trade for a ready made one if we desired, lots of good KPF prospects in next years draft too that could have an earlier impact than Jefferson.
We did assess this draft as weak, thats why we only went in with two picks. Guess if you believe its weak sitting on your hands and making a long term play isn't that bad..maybe
Defenders have to learn how to body. I love it as a toolIm all aboard the JVR train that guy competes like an animal. I think playing as a KPD as well as a KPF is good for any juniors development.
instead use him as a 3rd tall while he develops, get him up the ground
Especially in this era when you need to be able to run 20km a game aswell as carrying muscleThis is the roll I see him playing long term despite his height. Maybe he can become a Westoff type. I just dont see his frame getting as big as most hope. Some guys just cant put on weight.

Yeah I rate their haul bigtime too. Both their picks last night could definitely end up being better than JHF - their highlights (risky to judge on them, I know) look incredible.Highly underrated trade by Norf.

We took Matt Jefferson at pick 15.
You can check out some of his highlights here:
We'd have to trade up I would've thought.Can we still get the kid who moved out of home at 16?
