Can anyone confirm it?

I broke the story.

:clapping
I was the first to mention knights as a potential pickup. Didn't get much support from many except maybe bojangles and a couple of others.
Well looks like BH was reading.

The waters in that 2004 draft must be something special.

From that draft alone we have either draft or traded or potentially obtained through FA:
Pick:
1 - lids
4- bling
11- thomson
12 - meyer
16 -pattison
20-polo
36-mcguane
40- maric
44-morton
52- limbach
56- chris knights
65- mark graham

Knights would make it 12 guys from the 71 drafted in that draft (not counting the picks where clubs passed). see: http://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/ft_drafts?year=2004&t=N

I know the Maric trade has come off - but I would leave it at that.  I would not be going back to the same well where the waters were murky to say the least.

What year did Bate go? Got 3 votes in the Brownlow, surely he is our new CHF?

We are obviously going for the 'shock and awe' approach.  Attack everything from that draft in sight, sheer weight of numbers says we have to come up with a winner eventually.  With obvious apologies to Lids.

Actually, thinking about it a bit deeper, we should have shut up after our first pick, maybe banked the rest of the picks and used them in subsequent years when we started to get a clue!   :help

If we get Knights he better come good and play well, in recent times we gave them Tambo and got Maric; dont want to stuff up those recruiting master strokes
