As the thread title says -- How did we all rate Richmond's recruiting this off-season?

Trade: Shaun Hampson       21/03/1988     201cm  104kg    Ruckman                 Carlton

ND 12: Ben Lennon             05/07/1995    189cm    90kg     Midsized Forward      Northern Knights

ND 50: Nathan Gordon         12/02/1990    188cm    87kg     Midsized Forward      North Adelaide

ND 66: Sam Lloyd               03/03/1990    181cm    85kg     Small Forward          Frankston

First class,  was widely known that the draft only ran 12 deep, meaning we were going to have to be pretty imaginative with the balance of our selections. This is where fj came to the fore, he trod where only angels dare ...we be warehoused more talent than a Victoria secrets fashion parade ...watch this space tigers  :clapping

stuff this aged well

I was probably more willing to just shrug the shoulders, you win some you lose some looking back at the recruitment from this season, but I found this on BF.

Fairly poignant:

"1. No player has integrated into our best 22 from the 6 players we drafted. Even Shaun Hampson, who we traded for pick 32 at the time, was not an AFL mainstay.
2. This was considered the 'super draft'. Nathan Freeman, Billy Hartung and our pick in Ben Lennon are the only players to have been moved on from the top 30. Yes, you quoted the average but from the top 50 of that draft, 40 of them are still on an AFL list. 10 are gone and 2 of them are the players selected by us. It was just a pretty bad draft to bomb out on. If this was a weak draft, then it would be a little more understandable."

Absolute carcrash. How an earth did we win a flag 4 seasons later?

Missed out on Cripps, Crouch, Dunstan, Barrass, Brown etc on account of Lennon haha.

Mind you, we can do that with every draft basically... I used to hurt myself by going back and changing every pick to a player we could have had :D

Miles was more than just serviceable.
Thomas was the Pitts as was Hampson
I think considering Gordon was 50 and Lloyd 66 they were some good value finds!
Lennon at 12 is a bit of a stinker. The guy could kick! Its a shame we couldn't bring out the best in him. Cripps is a tank but I think a large part of that is also because he has Chris Judd personally mentoring him if I recall correctly?

Lennon is the glaring mistake, and I suppose if we were traded back picks for those guys its not a total loss.

The Hampson one hurts thought. Nankervis, J Kolodjashnij, Aliir Aliir, Riley Knight, Ben Brown all taken between our second and third rounder.
