Higgins might have been too good not to take but I thought the best Big mobile forward would have been the plan for pick 17
Overall it was a very good draft for the RFC

The AFL website is asking to re-rate the club's 2017 draft/trade period 7 months on.

Current thoughts on our 2017 draft so far?

4 picks inside the top 34 was a great result after winning a flag.
And you may not think I care for you
When you know down inside that I really do

Hasn't really played in the ruck much so far , still raw but signs are there, showing more promise as a KPF at this stage but still early days.... if I had to make a call right now I'd say he will be a player whether rucking is a significant part of that however I couldn't say ....:shh

RICHMOND

What's gone right so far?

There's no real need for big trading when you win a flag and all the players play with such connection and teamwork. So I'm happy despite not gaining anyone. Really hoping for the big tuna for next trade period.
- Xavier Brodie, Ballarat Vic

Passing on Josh Schache and drafting Ben Miller and Callum Coleman-Jones, with the possibility of Tom Lynch coming next year, has been the smart move.
- Glenn Cartledge, Blackburn Vic

What's been the biggest disappointment?

We're the reigning premiers and 7-1. I broke a shoelace this morning.
- David Pethick, McKinnon Vic

The jury's out on ...

... Anthony Miles. He's too good for the VFL. Will he stay or go?
- Philip Sutherland, Benalla Vic

... small forwards. Next year we will have to get another tall at centre half-forward.
- Andrew Verrier, Dodges Ferry Tas

... whether we did enough.
