If?
« on: November 20, 2008, 10:20:11 AM »
If Richmond had a terrible year last year and ended up with picks 1 & 2 who would we choose ?
My thoughts would be:
1.  Daniel Rich - What a midfield we would have (Cotchin, Rich, Deledio, Foley)
2.  Jack Watts - Awesome key forward, we may have been tempted with Vickery or Natanui but after passing on Frankin we wouldnt be making the same mistake in not taking a CHF of a generation. He will be a gun. 
If only !!!!!

I would go the same two pmac.

Vickery maybe for Watts but I doubt I would do it.

Melbourne must be kicking themselves that they didn't tank harder against Carlton!!

Naitanui & Watts for me, it would fix our structure for a decade
Rich is an elite midfielder but our midfield is coming along just fine, we have more pressing needs
Would hope that someone like Swift would fall through to Pick 18-19 or at least pick up the best mid left at this point

We would've had this choice if we tanked ourselves this year  ;).

Watts and Rich for me. Our midfield is coming along but we still need to add more A-grade class to it. Imagine a midfield of Cotch, Lids, Rich, Foley with a second tier of Tuck, Connors, Blingers, White, Edwards, etc... While Watts would've been that big key gun forward we are looking for. He would free up Jack, Morton and Cleve to play on the next best defenders over the next decade. Oh well let's hope we score some young guns with the picks we have  :pray.
