Interesting ...Billy Nichollls instead of Adam Selwood & Ryan Crowley

[The Mighty Wozman]

Look, I know there are "should have beens" and "could have beens" all over the place, but fancy this from the 2002 draft:

Pick 47 Bill Nicholls - Hawthorn - Richmond
Pick 53 Adam Selwood - Bendigo Bombers - West Coast Eagles
Pick 55 Ryan Crowley - Calder Cannons - Fremantle

Depressing

 

[pokey]

Are we really doing this again? :

 

[geoffryprettyboy]

We had possums running our recruiting dept. back then.

No we have a used car saleman.

Are we really doing this again? :

I actually missed these "opportunties"...I guess I have been too focussed on the obvious ones in Pavlich and Franklin....

Yeah, thanks a lot woza!!!

I which I was Merlyn. ... No actually I wish our recuiting department was. It would be sooo much easier.

 

[TIGEREXTRA]

Why are we trying to depress each other?

 

[tigertough12]

hindsight is a wonderful thing....why didnt other teams pick them up with earlier picks???
stupid thread!

Who was in charge back then.....

I know the point you are making, but just to be a smart ar$e
Matthews was in Hawthorns zone
Voss & Aker were state selections for Bris
R.Harvey was from the Saints zone (Mark was from Ess zone!)
S.West came from the Doggies zone
So we couldn't have actually got the above as they were tied to clubs which signed them up before we got a chance!

A glaring example of how pathetic our recruting was and still is

Could not get more glaring then that. In fact send that into footy classified or on the couch :hihi

15 other teams also missed out on Selwood and Crowley in that draft.

Take your blinkers off :
