Just had a quick look on Wikipedia. Big names.
I sorted the draft by teams and the big winners by far were Geelong, Hawks and Saints. Probably no coincidence that they were the top 3 teams from 2007 through to 2011, when these guys matured. Amazing recruiting.

If you don't like it, change it. If you don't want to change it, it can't be that bad!

Bargains included SJohnson (24), Mitchell (36), Montagna (37), Swan (58) and Lake (71).
Rookie picks included Sandilands, Boyd, Rutten, Carazzo.
Geelong were gifted a lad called GAblett at pick 40 of the draft too.

Definitely the Super draft to this point in time and hard to see it being topped.

Not too bad. Although are they calling an end to footy soon?

You are correct but from memory he was considered a late first round pick, not projected to become the star of historical significance he has.
Am happy to be corrected though

St Kilda must be ruing the fact that either Hodge or Judd was theirs for the taking and they opted for Ball.

Probably, I believe there was some big questions over Judd's shoulders at the time which prevented him going number 1

yes, if the clown factory that is St Kilda had actually let Malcolm coach the club, you would wonder whether he would have had a say in it.westozfalcon wrote:St Kilda must be ruing the fact that either Hodge or Judd was theirs for the taking and they opted for Ball.
