What a fizzer.

Was Hoping we would take Zacostelsky just something about this kid. Shame we traded out and missed a go at Cooper Stevens.
Pleased we actually took a kpf in Fawcett and surprised George Stevens did not get picked can only be down to pace id say.   that was a criticism and id say he did not test well in that area.

Cannot understand why we passed when Stevens was still on the board.

Because we didn’t rate him :shh

Apparently we did not rate many at all. Another year another draft where we hardly participate another year  they don't have the confidence to back themselves in with some late picks.

Yes we definitely haven't been known for backing ourselves in with late picks over the years....

Clubs tonight made clear their frustrations with the academy system and its flaws. Changes coming. Eagles, Cats & Magpies all sounded the alarm tonight. Read the story.

The academy system is flawed but Geelong and Collingwood are the last two clubs who can complain given they've won flags thanks to the F/S rule.
