He was on the Eagles watch list, and they were apparently keen. But at the last minute they went with Venables with the pick before the Crows grabbed Galluci.

Not sure why.

Because they couldn't believe Venables was still available at that pick. They expected him to go in the top 5 and were delighted to see him there as they rated him highly

He was rated a likely 1st round pick, but I doubt top 5. There were certainly injury concerns around him going in to the draft.

First round draft pick coming off injury. Has pace and skill. We need some depth In the back half.

We are talking someone who might play five games & be a good VFL player. Worth a punt.

It’s the polar opposite to Towner as a player but the same list management theory.

Got the first bit right, wrong bloke tho. Mansell got the gig.

Still think he’s worth a look for a year.

Mustve beeen a poor showing.

Did he play out of defence as he was a failed mid forward at the Crows.
