I laughed when mcguanne dropped that ball. Near laid an egg, I think
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

be nice please and stick to the subject
you still havent come up with a serviceable  pick 94 yet

Dean cox, Nathan Foley, Nick Maxwell, Tom Rockcliff, Leigh Adams, Matt Suckling, Paul Duffield, Heath Hocking, Aaron Davey, Andrew Carrazzo.........all picks 94 and above and there just off he top of my head! Would you like me to fully research it for you?
you name the successes, now name the over 1000 failures with rookie  picks. i reckon most successful rookie picks would be mature picks as well.

i will say again late nd and rookie picks are a numbers game where you turn over heaps ( about 6 ) in the hope of finding one decent player who can do a job for you.
just my opinion but with these picks we would be better off with a mixture of kids and mature recruits about 50/50. someone like moloney would be a guarantee of decent service for two or three yrs. most rookies dont ever get to play a senior game.

What's that got to do with O'Hanlon and in turn why is O'Hanlon being discussed in the McGuane thread?
why is ohanlon being discussed here you will have to ask others i didnt bring him up.

what has the above got to do with ohanlon. well someone asked how many pick 94s  have made it i was  just making the point that the vast majority of picks taken at 94 or later do not make it.
if we use previous history as a guide there should not be high expectations on the kid.

as for mcguane did i mention hes a hack? oh yeah i did.

Thanks for your services but you were well over-payed for what you produced.

Lukey tries hard and contests (nice contested mark in the first quarter) but you can't have forwards on the park that continually miss from the golasquare running into open goals  :P. Even his two set shots from 20m out just barely scraped in. Nothing but a fill-in option this year and one that can be cut or traded as he's not going to be part of a future premiership.

I'm hoping some opposition recruiters are as deluded as posters on here, thinking this guy is an answer going forward.

Spot on. Must be traded now.

I heard an interview on SEN on Friday with Lukey and he spoke as though he will be playing with us again and continuing to play up forward.

Probably because that's where the inside 50 is directed all the time.  :whistle

Can't have Shane Edwards either by that logic.  He has missed a lot more from closer in this year. 

McGuane is playing second tall now and doing a good job.   Kicked two goals and took 6 marks.  Probably all contested. More than any of our other forward options ever take.  Astbury did stuff all.  Next year, he will be the third tall.  Will stretch opposition clubs in defence.  Lets not forget that he almost did his knee mid season. He hasn't played anywhere near 100% fitness last two years because of injuries.

Mcguanes 15 goals look ok on paper ....but his skill level makes my eyes bleed.

Surly we can flog him off to the Gold Coast for pick 79.
