What do people think of Hawthorn's decision to draft Ellis at pick 3? From what I have seen he has not shown anywhere near what you would hope from someone drafted that high. Murphy, Thomas, Pendlebury and Birchall have all gone on to become very important players for their respective teams.
Don't want to get off topic here but if you actually watched a Hawthorn game you would not be saying this. Ellis is averaging more touches a game than Thomas this year alongside the likes of Mitchell, hodge, Sewell, Bateman, Crawford etc. He was always going to be behind the others due to the fact that he was still playing school footy when the others were debuting, but he is easily doing enough to be in Hawthorn best 18.
