His a good promising player, should find another club.
When the Hawks drafted him we heard he's the next Pavlich and he'll be a superstar. They kept on telling us they have amazing depth and it's kids like Thorp who'll make them unbeatable.
Funny how a few years down the track and he's gone without a whimper.
I thought Pelchen was a drafting genuis?

Should get picked up, Wouldn't mind Richmond picking him up with a late ND pick or PSD pick.

ouch, top ten draftpick gone for nothing.
Great work by the hawks management

How's David Myers going for you? The curse of the number 6 draft pick strikes again:
2000 Dylan Smith (Kangaroos)
2001 Ashley Sampi (WCE)
2002 Steve Salopek (Port)
2003 Kepler Bradley (Ess)
2004 Tom Williams (Bull)
2005 Beau Dowler (Hawks)
2006 Mitch Thorp (Hawks)
2007 David Myers (Ess)
2008 Chris Yarran (Carl)
Steve Salopek is really the only guy who has proven himself from that list.

Alot of hawks have gone on about this kid like he was the next coming of jesus christ. Watch that turn into 'he was an overated hack'.

Myers is actually coming along nicely thanks for asking. Keep an eye out for him next year.
It's funny cause you've picked the Essendon supporter on here who probably likes Myers the least to say that to
No, actually we're all quite disappointed to have wasted a first round draft pick. That being said, I'm pretty happy overall with our first round drafting since 2004. One bad egg out of eight picks:
Roughead
Franklin
Lewis
Ellis
Dowler
Thorp
Rioli
Schoenmakers

Nah mate, I doubt you'll hear any hawks supporters call him over-rated. Never got his body right and as such, has been delisted. No doubt we got hooked up in the hype, much like you guys with Gumbleton. Hopefully Thorp gets a chance at playing at the top level, would be good to know if he could actually play.
Showed almost as much potential as Gumbleton - almost. How is Laycock and Bradley going? 1st round solid gold drafting there

How must Pelchen be feeling right about now?
One of his reasons for selecting Thorp at #6 was that "Selwoods body would not hold up to the rigours of AFL".
ouch ..

Tell Mitch Thorp that Joel Selwood says hello. Anyone can play that game dumbass.
Thorp couldn't get a game either.
