Well we hit gold with the ones that made the list considering the pick at which we picked them up at.
IMO Jackson is getting better and is primed to have a good year in 2009 (or for his sake he better).
However we did bomb out with a fair few though.
And what about Tuck even a fair few of our own supporters were writing him off mid way through this year. Cheap pick for a better than average player = team depth.
Who were our top selection picks that year?
-
Foley should be higher, definitely, perhaps even swap Foley & Tuck at this stage although Tuck finished the year much stronger
-
lol Carrazzo ahead of Foley.
-
Stanton at 2 lol. He perhaps squeezes in the top 10 on that list but no way is he the 2nd best player there. Fisher is AA (he should be at No.2) and Foley played for Victoria. Adcock is also too low along with Foley.

We traded our first pick (#6) for Browny. Essendon used it on Kepler Bradley :D.
Next was Miller going speculative with pick 21 on Alex Gilmour.
Tom Roach was third at 37 as F/S. More a political choice at the time to buy the club some feelgood news.

That is hilarous and we get bagged for our recruiting

Don't be too tough MT, with this rating it makes Stanton the highest rated girl to be drafted on an AFL list (replacing Fiora of course).
Shane Tuck belongs at 2, he has been a very good player for the Tigers since being drafted which is quite rare. In a lot of ways, if you value consistency, he has been a better player than even Cooney over his 5 years.
Looking back, it wasn't much of a draft. I reckon the Tigers have been lucky to scoop up in 04, 06 and 07. Lets hope we can collect again in 2009 before being in the 8 for a loooooong stretch.

lol Carrazzo ahead of Foley.
I keep looking at this list and I can't believe half the guys who are ahead of Nathan. What sort of idiot compiles this list?

Probably Walls or Sheahan

I vote for not having the 2004 one on the OER site
It will probably just attract some idiot Dawk troll

LOL @ Walls and Sheahan ;D

There is a 2004 one and you can guess who are named as 1 & 2.
