[quote="Sydney Blue"]Go back to the Dow Obrien draft if we would have packaged those 2 top 10 picks up for Toby or Papley or Charlie Cameron and offered ant them 7 years at 800k per year. You would have gone into meltdown.
But right now any of those 3 would be the difference between us sitting in the 8 and sitting 13th.
Would you have given up 2 top 10 picks for Half forward.
The draft is a lottery always has been always will be.

Nice try
Maybe you just don’t get how important recruiting is
Is the draft a lottery
To an extent
But some recruiters like Stephen Wells are better at it than the likes of SOS
And you get players from those areas I
mentioned .
9 players played on average in Tiger Premiership teams coming from mid rookie preseason picks over 50
Go back over the last 8 years and have a look at our recruiting
It’s disgraceful
And what do we do
Sack coaches
With every loss when will it dawn on people that the recruiting philosophy has to change
Wells give me a break he was blessed with Father/Sons and traded his way to a flag.
If we traded away draft picks like he did you would be crying . 10 players who played in the grand final came from other clubs

Your delusional now
Double your research
Look at Geelong as well
Scarlett, Hawkins Ablett yeah they were lucky there
Tel me about the draft of Enright
Milburn Harry Taylor Kelly Chapman( Michael Mansfield)
Seriously mate
Kerry Packer said the Channel 9 sale and buy back, making a cool Billion $, there's only one Bond in your lifetime, describing his luck.
Wells had his day in the sun. Things worked out right to create a golden era. Its not as easy as keogh thinks it is for every team to have the same luck and opportunity as Wells did.
Who is the best List Manager right this minute? Why?
What makes him more special than the circumstances enabling enabling him to make the choices you admire?
I really doubt there is that much between the top 20 prospects.
It's all about the club environment and system you bring them into.
It's a bit like your ATAR or folio in Year 12. Sure it means a lot for about a week and it's what you work towards, but it guarantees nothing at university or in your trade or in your career in general.
You are at the mercy of the lecturers you get, the university you go to, how hard you work, the people you get paired with for group activities, the apprenticeship you get, the first job site you get put on etc etc etc.
Walking into a club as pick 3 and thinking your job is done, or conversely the club that drafted you thinking 'he's a pick 3,he'll be fine' is like strolling into your first medical lecture or onto your first job site and going 'I know what I'm doing here, I got 99.95, I'm a sure thing'.
Our university staff are shit, because our university is shit.[/quote]
…but our university is and old and prestigious one…
