I dont come to gloat because we have our fair share of failures in drafting, but was just reviewing the 2017 draft and thought what a strong second round with one glaring failure in Will Walker, can honestly say i have never heard of him but the next 10 players taken are all guns, 6 All Australians.. Its interesting as 2017 would be considered one of the weaker top ends of the draft but obviously batted very deep.

It's not all about you mate...

Oh wait, carry on.
 
Caller into trade radio “doesn’t rate Paul Curtis”

Wants owies, daniel, houston ..

Said Owies better than Curtis..

Once Paul Curtis learns how strong he is, no one will tackle that kid to the ground. They’ll end up on their backsides

How did someone so impaired manage to dial in to trade radio?
 
I can't see the Saints agreeing to that deal because it would be a huge loss for them (over 650pts) but who knows, on draft night they may have a particular player in mind and to move up the board, our pick 2 and a third rounder or future 3rd rounder may be enough.
Remember, they got burned on their last back to back picks

Spot on, I was listening to the radio the game before we played Melbourne, they were interviewing bowey from Melbourne, hecwas asked who he's likely opponent would be , hope it's not Curtis as he is too strong

Our recruiters really screwed up in failing to predict Will Walker's career ending injury.

Kicked three fewer goals in a team that scored much fewer points. Dimwit.
 
I’m not sure he’s gloating. Gloating would be me saying that I went onto the Carlton board after the 17 draft and said “it’s interesting that SOS went dow over ldu. I think this will be a defining selection for him and I think he’s go it wrong”

Now that a gloat

Wasn't there a story that Cats spooked us into taking Walker? We should've taken Kelly, that's who looked the much better prospect at the time. I don't remember Balta being mentioned at all. Or Taylor.
Walker was a reach at the time.

I dont think anyone knows where PC’s ceiling is. He had something like 8 shots on goal in a game this year? He missed a bunch, probably should have ended up with 5. Would like to see Owies have that much pill. I also think PC is better defensively too which he needs to improve on

I remember Walker had some buzz as the draft neared and something along the lines of he was showing rates of growth on a par with Marcus Bontompelli. It's entirely possible the Cats would have taken him. They don't always pay off.

i brought up balta several times for that pick at the time

Ok. Don't remember that. Of course they are always a punt. Sucks that it didn't work out of course.
