I think it is a little difficult to know just how good that team is yet.

Would look a little better if our PSD guys in White and King were added as well now they're listed players.

Here's my take -

FB: Jake King, Will Thursfield, Luke McGuane,

HB: Jarrad Oakley-Nicholls, Alex Rance, Travis Casserly

C: Nathan Foley, Richard Tambling, Dean Polo

HF: Daniel Connors, , Cleve Hughes, Shane Edwards

FF: Dean Putt, Jack Riewoldt, Adam Pattison

Foll: Angus Graham, Brett Deledio, Trent Cotchin

bench: Danny Meyer, Andy Collins


I threw in the Rookies we have obtained over that period for good measure. I'm tossing up whether to swap Edwards with Lids but at the moment that seems about right to me.

Add Thursty too who was drafted in the 2004 December rookie draft. Polak was traded for. Simmo was also traded for in the last 3 years but I'll leave him out as he's 28/29.

Polak would be the oldest players in that team would he not or Jake King?

Looking at the that team it really makes you feel excited at the future. White could easily be another addition.

How old is Schulz(sp?)? What is the chances of him being part of our long term future?

Once you add in 2 or 3 more years of recruits using the above team as a basis, I think TWs 2011 target (beginning of sustained success) seem very realistic.

If you're going to stick in Polak, then McMahon and Morton would probably fit in somewhere.

Forgot about this year's trades. Morton definitely as he'll only turn 21 in January. McMahon is 24 and turns 25 in May so just outside a 23 and under line-up.

Foley, Raines, Jackson and Moore (one day older than Kingy) would be squeezed into that side too if it wasn't restricted to just 2004+.

Polak is still relatively young too. 2005 looks the weakest of the 4 drafts.

Not all will become long-term decent-to-star AFL footballers but even if only half of them make it that'll be at least 13 cubs that will make up our core for the next decade.

Also;

Intersting to see how our future spine pans out.

Both those two's last chance next year. Cement a senior spot or it's goodbye.

By recruiting more talls it will enable us for the first time in a long while to pick and choose who we keep and who we trade (KPPs always have trade value). Makes a pleasant change to having just a handful of talls on our list and unrealistically hoping and praying they all end up stars  ::).

It is very odd to see a RFC list with KPP deapth. More so - most of them are developing, potentially 'good' footballers.

Nice change thou.
