Iconic misses in draft history (AFLFA)
« on: December 13, 2025, 07:15:50 PM »


You could probably add Andrew McLeod’s trade from Fremantle to Adelaide to this list.

Are there any other ‘misses’ missing from this list?

For all our misses back then, I'd doubt any Tigers supporter would change anything given we still ended up winning 3 flags in 4 years.

Gotta wonder if we took Buddy +/- Roughy if we'd have ended up with dusty at all and subsequently the 3 flags

1999 3 Aaron Fiora  4 Mathew Pavlich

2005 JO-N what a joke we could have picked almost anyone else and they would have been better.

How about 2010 Conca at 6.  4 of the next 5 picks was Caddy, Heppell, Prestia, and Lynch we royally stuffed that one up.

And of we took Trengove or Scully instead of Dusty then we’d have ended up with none

It's only fair that now we're 18th on the ladder, I show the faith back in the club and do everything I can to put them in front. In the end, I'm stoked I made the decision to stay. I f***ing love this club”
