If chol comes good and one of townsend markov broad or c moore then it will be a good draft as I expect Rioli and Yarran to be good pickups. 4 regulars if only in 2 or 3 years out of a draft would be very good.  But playing the odds only Rioli and Yarran will become regulars.

Name the uninspiring selections.

Dangerfield was never going anywhere else part from Geelong. Leuenberger wanted to be number 1 ruck and that would upset loyal servants like Maric at RFC plus the burger has been injured for most of his career.

We went to go shopping at Coles Tooronga and ended up rummaging through the Bargain Bins at BiLo Melton Sth.

FFS Stalin. None of those were high picks. The draft wa supposed to be shallow too. Give the boys a chance to prove themselves before you call them uninspiring.

Only pick up I have a real issue with is Moore A.

Too early to make calls on the kids drafted but happy with the type of players we drafted

Really happy with Rioli and Broad

Think Townsend could be a really good pick up for what he cost us

Yarran gets his head and attitude right then he have a gun, we get the "bad" Yarran the obviously it will turns into a shocker. Reckon in 2016 we get option 1

Also happy to bring in another VFL player as rookie

Agree with these comments. The only thing that you have to keep in mind is Andrew Moore cost us nothing. Zero, zilch. Only his wage. They even expanded the list to 39 for him so he didn't even cost us a place on the list. He is also only on a one year contract. He must produce or he is out. I don't mind that at all.

Watch Moore become another walk up start, play every game and then get a two year extension....just like Hunt...oh look... he plays an important role , you don't go at pick 9 in your draft year if you don't have talent, he's a quality player but more importantly, he's a quality bloke ...

Another dud brought in for depth who ends up being first 22, while the kids "develop" with the bush leaguers we recruit for our VFL side.

Dimma will have only himself to blame if he gifts games to players that do not deserve them. It is his head that will be on the chopping block. Just hope the club doesn't give him an extension till he has shown that he can get us past the first week in September. :pray
