Title: 2007 draft revisited (afl site)
Post by: one-eyed on November 07, 2017, 09:35:20 PM
The AFL website has redone the top 10 for 2007 draft. They have Rance at 3 and Cotch at 4.

Total Recall: We re-pick the 2007 draft

Wouldn't have Rioli higher than Rance.

I know I am biased, but I would seriously think of putting Rance at No.1.

Great midfielders are easier to get hold of than once in a generation KPDs.

And Rance showed how good he was by being the most influential player in our flag win (IMO).

Rance number one in my book as he is the greatest backman I've ever seen...actually, he could be the greatest player I've ever seen. That's how high i rate him. Danger is an unbelievable player but Rance has him covered IMO only.

Rance - freak , greatest defender of his generation, premiership player
Rioli - freak , crucial player in four flags
Cotchin -Premiership Captain , finalists in 4 out of his 5 years as captain, carried the midfield with little or no help for years in  his early 20's, stood up in a winning prelim.

Clangerfield , unfunny jokes and prelim chokes... :shh

Can't argue with the re-draft as above.
Nailed it.
I would love if Cyril came across to play with Daniel and possibly Maurice Jnr.  Imagine it would you..Imagine Bruce....

Yes the only player in that revised top 4 without a flag or even a GF appearance should be #1.....

So Cyril is ahead of Rance and Cotchin because of the flags, shouldn't Rance and Cotchin be ahead of Clangerfield because of a flag?

Stuff Bruce, half this forum would be bringing a box of Kleenex to the games. Reality would be due to age and list balance we won't need cyril

Wow, another wankfest over an overrated player (Cyril). It's as bad as the Ablett trade this year (I reckon he's cooked), as if Geelong has just traded in 9 Alex Rances for the price of their used toilet paper.

I know he's a great player (Cyril again) and does heaps of great things, in a team that is always winning flags, but as I expected he couldn't keep up the form when his team took a dive down the ladder. Same with Gunston. And he's a grub too.

Honestly to suggest Rioli is a better player than Rance is a downright disgrace and reeks of another 'excitement factor' circle jerk.

Rance may not do the trick-shots that Rioli does but I seriously doubt there's any senior coach in the AFL that would rather Rioli over him...
