2008 draft revisited (afl site)

[one-eyed]

The AFL website has redone the top 10 for the 2008 draft. They have Luke Shuey going at what was our pick 8 (instead of Vickery).

Total Recall: We re-pick the 2008 draft

[Slipper]

Hurley at the top of that list!!!!!!!

[Diocletian]

AFL media gobbling Essendon's knob as usual.

Would put Hannebery, Sloane & Shuey all before Hurley. Yarran #1 at his peak and on pure talent, but obviously not on overall return.

Natanui would arguably have to be the most massively overrated player in the history of the AFL though.

Not many others outside that 'redrafted' top 10.

Tom Lynch
Liam Shiels (3x premiership player)
Luke Breust (3x premiership; AA 2014)
Sam Jacobs (delisted by Carlton and then redrafted as a rookie. Anyone could have grabbed him off the Blues for nothing.)
Hayden Ballantyne
David Zaharakis
Matthew Suckling
Steven Motlop
Tom Rockliff
Jeff Garlett
