[tiger_25]

All this talk about Pick 8 vs Pick 13. Higher picks do not always work out. Look over the past 7 years and pick 13 has produced better players overall than those gone at pick 8. Its all a guessing game.

2000: Daniel Motlop Roos
2001: James Bartel Geelong
2002: Luke Brennan Hawthorn
2003: Raf Clarke Saints

Good point we are. Pick 1 is over rated as well, I'd rather have a much lower one. :

Good one smart arse. All im saying is that it all the luck of the trade. Who knows how good a player is going to turn out. All im pointing out is that over the past few years, very good players have been picked up with a later pick than those that have gone before them. In other words if we got Polak and pick 13 for pick 8, we could end up with a decent KPP and still get a good player with pick 13.

Let's hope for Miller's sake it continues.

 

[Tony Braxton-Hicks]

We'll now go small with pick 13.

 

[feisty tige]

Hopefully we will go best available with pick 13...

 

[TIGEREXTRA]

Today is Friday the 13th and we just landed pick 13 in the nat draft.

Could be an omen, lets hope its a good one!!
