They are lucky it's a deep and even draft.Although if they play their cards right, they're in a perfect position to start their rebuild by racking up high draft picks.
Not sure if Yze is the coach to do it though..
All I noticed was that Stephen Silvagni was named in the article but other great backs like Jack Regan (Should have been in the team of the century), David Dench, Geoff Southby, Matthew Scarlett, Alex Rance. etc. were not.Interesting article on the AFL website:

Best of the best: Your club's greatest player of all time
For some clubs, it's clear-cut. For others, the debate still rages. AFL.com.au's reporters make the call on the greatest player at every clubwww.afl.com.au
It's always problematic comparing players from different eras, and they should separate Brisbane/Fitzroy and Sydney/South Melbourne.
Silvagni > Regan? - FMD - another AFL mythAll I noticed was that Stephen Silvagni was named in the article but other great backs like Jack Regan (Should have been in the team of the century), David Dench, Geoff Southby, Matthew Scarlett, Alex Rance. etc. were not.
It's like the media can't remember any other KPD other than SOS?
Even just at Carlton, Southby was a better full back than SilvagniSilvagni > Regan? - FMD - another AFL myth
Allen Jakovich and Plugger both said SOS as their hardest opponent.Even just at Carlton, Southby was a better full back than Silvagni
Plugger sure but Allan jakovich?Allen Jakovich and Plugger both said SOS as their hardest opponent.
He was better than Southby by a whisker in my opinion.
Deserved winner.

Allan Jakovich was an absolute superstar. What do you mean?Plugger sure but Allan jakovich?
Absolute freak. One of the most entertaining players to pull on a boot. You're right though, just didn't have any motivationAllan Jakovich was an absolute superstar. What do you mean?
Fastest player in history to the first fifty goals.
9 games I think.
Just wasn't as dedicated.

He pales into insignificance compared to Gary Ablett senior.Left or right foot from 50 plus, was a gun. A lot of his goals were from general play as the defenders couldn’t handle his mobility

The second goal here is ridiculous

Doull yes. Silvagni pulled on jumpers a bit too much for my likingAllan Jakovich was an absolute superstar. What do you mean?

Tony Modra may have said the same about SOS.
Can't remember. He was a phenomenal player. Could move up forward and kick plenty of goals as well. Hate Carlton but SOS and Doull were exceptional.
