Wow that's a pretty poor record. At least our busts aren't total stuff ups now with Conca and Vickery but neither were very good.

They conveniently forgot Bling, AKA The Witness, AKA The Lurker

[FooffooValve]

Throw in two no 12 picks in next couple of seasons - Lennon and C Ellis - not a great record at all.

[MintOnLamb]

IIRC we picked Fiora at No 3, Pavlich went at 4 

[Andyy]

Gee we did a terribly job back then didn't we

[Andyy]

2010 could have been:
Lynch or Prestia
Parker or Howe
Lyons
Puopolo
Seedsman

2012 could have been:
Vlastuin (probably the only pick I'd keep tbh)
KMac (ok it was a shallow draft)
Membrey
Not much else worth a game...

But it goes to show how deep some talent runs. I really hope we nail it this year. If we get 3-4 long term players we could set ourselves up for a decade.

[Chuck17]

IIRC we picked Fiora at No 3, Pavlich went at 4 

You mean we could have had the Pav instead of FiFi

[Diocletian]

Big if true...

[MintOnLamb]

IIRC we picked Fiora at No 3, Pavlich went at 4 

You mean we could have had the Pav instead of FiFi

Just googled it, take it to the bank
1999 draft order
Josh Fraser
Paul Hasleby
Aaron Fiora
Matthew Pavlich

Also note in 2004 Richard Tambling was our number 4 pick, Buddy Franklin was number 5. 

[Hard Roar Tiger]

From memory, Dusty went ahead of Dees first 2 picks….

He went next! Your club's ultimate 'if only' draft pick

With the benefit of hindsight, these are the selections your club might have done

afl.com.au
14 November 2021

Adelaide -  2000 NAB AFL Draft: Laurence Angwin (pick No.7), Daniel Motlop (pick No.8 )
Brisbane -  2015 NAB AFL Draft: Josh Schache (pick No.2), Callum Mills (pick No.3), Clayton Oliver (pick No.4)
Carlton -    2000 NAB AFL Draft: Trent Sporn (pick No.11), Shaun Burgoyne (pick No.12)
Coll'wood - 2013 NAB AFL Draft: Nathan Freeman (pick No.10), Dom Sheed (pick No.11)
Essendon - 2000 NAB AFL Draft: James Davies (pick No.17), Daniel Kerr (pick No.18 )
Fremantle - 2012 NAB AFL Draft: Josh Simpson (pick No.17), Brodie Grundy (pick No.18 )

Geelong -  2006 NAB AFL Draft: Nathan Djerrkura (pick No.25), Shane Edwards (pick No.26) 

The Cats' haul in 2006 features Joel Selwood and Tom Hawkins, but their second-round pick in Djerrkura never had an impact. He managed just four games in four years at Geelong before playing 21 in two years at the Dogs. Richmond had the next pick in 2006 and pounced on Edwards, who would go on to be one of the club's best and most respected players. He was a key player in the Tigers' three flags in the past five years and was also a Therabody AFL All-Australian in 2018. Could a prime Edwards have made the difference for the Cats in the past decade of near misses?

Gold Coast -   2010 NAB AFL Draft: Sam Day (pick No.3), Andrew Gaff (pick No.4)
GWS Giants - 2011 NAB AFL Draft: Matthew Buntine (pick No.5), Chad Wingard (pick No.6)
Hawthorn -    2006 NAB AFL Draft: Mitch Thorp (pick No.6), Joel Selwood (pick No.7)

Melbourne -   2009 NAB AFL Draft: Jack Trengove (pick No.2), Dustin Martin (pick No.3) 

The Demons had a monopoly on the first two picks and claimed Tom Scully with pick No.1, followed by Trengove. The latter went on to become the youngest captain in VFL/AFL history and played 89 games at Melbourne and later Port Adelaide in a much-maligned career. But there's no doubt about next on the list, who has become one of the greatest players of all-time. Superstar Martin singlehandedly led Richmond to three premierships, claiming all three Norm Smith Medals, as well as adding a Brownlow Medal, two Jack Dyer Medals and four Therabody AFL All-Australian jackets along the way.

North Melb. - 2017 NAB AFL Draft: Will Walker (pick No.23), Tim Kelly (pick No.24)
Port Adel. -   2007 NAB AFL Draft: Matthew Lobbe (pick No.16), Harry Taylor (pick No.17)

RICHMOND - 2004 NAB AFL Draft: Richard Tambling (pick No.4), Lance Franklin (pick No.5)

Arguably the greatest coup in AFL draft history, the Hawks pinched Franklin from under Richmond's nose after surprising everyone with their selection of fellow tall forward Jarryd Roughead at pick No.2. A star junior in the Northern Territory, Tambling went on to play 108 games for the Tigers before being traded to Adelaide, where he featured another 16 times. In Franklin, however, the Hawks snared one of the game's all-time greats. In nine seasons in brown and gold, 'Buddy' won two premierships, four Therabody AFL All-Australian jackets, two Coleman Medals and two Goal of the Year awards. After his move to Sydney in 2013 on a mega nine-year deal, he has added another two Colemans and four All-Australians and is only five goals away from becoming just the sixth man to kick 1000 goals in VFL/AFL history. Another 'what could have been' moment for the Tigers came in 2009, when they picked up Ben Griffiths at No.19, one spot ahead of Fremantle's dual Brownlow medallist Nat Fyfe.

St Kilda -      2014 NAB AFL Draft: Paddy McCartin (pick No.1), Christian Petracca (pick No.2)
Sydney -      2007 NAB AFL Draft: Patrick Veszpremi (pick No.11), Cyril Rioli (pick No.12)
West Coast - 2008 NAB AFL Draft: Jordan Jones (pick No.52), Michael Walters (pick No.53)
W.Bulldogs - 2002 NAB AFL Draft: Tim Walsh (pick No.4), Jarrad McVeigh (pick No.5)
