draft, last 5 years?

[bradrowe#32]

1999 - 62. Collingwood - Ben Johnson (Preston Knights)

Was a pretty good pick (for Collingwood!).

 

[Silvagnis]

Black isn't eligible for this prestigious award.

 

[Bentleigh]

Tucks shytes on Mitchell.

 

[Longy413]

Hird was F/S thow, you carnt compare F/S to others

Hird was drafted in 1990, but it wasn't under the F/S rule. His dad having only played 3 or so games for Essendon.

It was his Grand Father who had the stronger links to the club. 100+ games, ex-president, grand stand.

 

[jess-jess]

West Coast's best pick's have probably been Kerr at 18 or Hansen at 38.

 

[m.diddy]

Grant was zone? I street out of Hawthorns.
Hird was grand father son not father?

R.Harvey I think is the only player in the AFL that was drafted from zone, would that be correct?

 

[Longy413]

R.Harvey I think is the only player in the AFL that was drafted from zone, would that be correct?

Excluding the interstate clubs zone selections, he probably would be.
Misiti and Mercuri were Essendon's last.

 

[Weaver]

R.Harvey I think is the only player in the AFL that was drafted from zone, would that be correct?

Archer, Harvey, Koutoufidies, Neitz, Riccardi, Rohan Smith, West.

who has been the best draft pick outside the top 10 in the last 5 years???

Nick Dal Santo by far would be the best. No questions asked

 

[Lingsface]

luke ball at #2

 

[Tim56]

People seem to forget that prior to around the last 10 years the draft was a real luck of the draw scenario. There aren't all the state and interstate competitions there are now, which give everyone the chance to look at the talent on offer. Educated guesswork was more like it back in the day - hence Hird going at 71 and Grant at 103.

 

[Palace03]

After his season so far Gillbee at 43?? is looking pretty cheap.

 

[mojo31]

2003

Ben Hudson at 58.
Shane Tuck at 73.

2001

Brian Harris pick 71.
Brad Miller pick 55.
Henry Playfair pick 41.

 

[Chichie]

Shane Crawford pick #13
Jade Rawlings Pick #78

 

[mojo31]

Shane Crawford pick #13
Jade Rawlings Pick #78

5 Years?

 

[blaisee]

Archer, Harvey, Koutoufidies, Neitz, Riccardi, Rohan Smith, West.

Maxfield ...

 

[linger_isgod]

I'm pretty happy with Kelly.

 

[Hu$$ey]

Nick Dal Santo by far would be the best. No questions asked

No way....13 is still a pretty high pick and he isn't that great value. I would think brian harris and even shane tuck in the 70s are more VALUE for picks than him

 

[sante]

Andrew Kellaway in 97 was pick 73.


Coughlan at 25 Tuck in the 70's

 

[Bentleigh]

Andrew Kellaway in 97 was pick 73.


Coughlan at 25 Tuck in the 70's

Hartigan, Raines.

 

[Ripper]

Last 5 years?

The best pickup is without doubt future Brownlow medalist Aaron Sandilands at pick 33 in the Rookie draft.
