On top of this I would of personally picked Pickett over Deluca
Pickett has far more upside and would add to our midfield depth which is highly questionable

There's far more to power vs endurance Keogh than fibre types - which are only a part of the equation. Spending time training one means less time spent training the other. It's simply not possible to have elite levels of both... not meaningfully. Without being a genetic freak that is. That's why some runners become sprinters, some become marathoners. Same with cyclists - track vs sprinters vs grand tours.

With certain types of training, type 2 (fast twitch) muscle fibres can be changed by the body to Type 1 (slow twitch) fibres as part of the adaptation to dose-response, but the extent to which this can happen is relatively minor.

Of far more importance in aerobic endurance is VO2max and Maximal Lactate Steady State. While they can be extended slightly, these are largely genetic. They'd also be hard to train when you've got a niggling issue with a disk in your flower spine! Part of McGovern's trade a forward is getting separation leading away from defenders, closing speed applying pressure, and vertical leap. I wouldn't want him to sacrifice his explosiveness for a bit more endurance... he's not a midfielder.

I can't wait to wake up in the morning and read the stuff you lot have been on about during my night.

You left out Liam Baker who we chased this year...

And Jack Ross and Sydney Stack who are both better than Baker

And as for Jack Graham, BB wanted him a few picks before the tigers took him, SOS won the argument and took Macreadie

Then again, BB seriously wanted Josh Dunkley, he lost that argument too, and Ed Richards, well you know how that went... our midfield depth wouldn’t be as shallow as it is

From last night’s game, the Cats turned Darcy Lang into Gryan Miers

Think this is being slightly untruthful. Senior coaches dont get involved in scouting players.

I can't wait to wake up in the morning and read the stuff you lot have been on about during my night.

I guess the previous CEO was being untruthful... Carlton requested additional time at the draft(s) when it was our turn(s), there was robust discussion between SOS and BB...

BB simply wanted more and more mids... Dunkley was a much better mid as a junior than Cunningham (even though Cunningham was a much nicer looking player, he couldn't win his own ball), and Graham was a well performed mid & SA under 18 capt, whereas Macreadie was a tall defender

BB's view was that SOS didn't deliver and BB let Liddle know that when he was fired...

no secret SOS wasn't a fan of BB

I just did a search on your previous posts. No mention of him until after the selections.

FWIW, I suspect SOS has his eyes elsewhere at the moment. West Coast will have to acquire picks to get Kelly over the line and I suspect we're looking to get into the negotiation. Perhaps giving WC our future first for the right price.

OK I'll bite.

Firstly, most premiership sides core players are top 20 picks

WC Eagles
Sheed 11
Kenedey 4
Shuey 18
Hurn 13
Gaff 4
Naitanui 2
Darling 26 (PP Pick)

Richmond
Prestia 5
Martin 3
Cotchin 2
Riewoldt 13
Rance 18 (PP)
Ellis 15
Conca 6

Doggies
Bontempelli 4
Smith 7
Macrae 6
Stinger 5
Wallis 22
Crozier 20
Boyd 1

Hawthorn
Hodge 1 (PP)
Lewis 7
Roughhead 2
Smith 19
Burgoyne 12
Birchall 14
Rioli 12
McEvoy 9
Schoenmakers 16
Hale 7
Frawley 12

Point 2 seeing as you want to go there.

I watch around 60-80 games per season on average with around 12 games live. I just don't cherry pick drafts or trades from other teams to prove a point, but much rather look at the list strategy as a whole.

There are still many holes on our list, however the plan IMHO has been mostly been successful, we have used our high end picks for key talls Harry, Weitering, Curnow first year of rebuild.
Build backline second year with Marchbank, Macreadie, Williamson and some mids in Samo & Fisher.
Third year start building mids with Dow, O'Brien, Kennedy, Lang and plugging holes DeKoning, Lobbe, Schumacher
Fourth year more mids Walsh, Setterfield, Stoker, Gibbons plus McGovern as trade request

All the premiership teams have built there list over a very long period of time, in most cases 10 years and we are in the same category.

We have a massive hole in the 26-30 age bracket so you can either trade your way to fill it or keep refining the list until the likes of Harry, Curnow, Cripps, Wieters, Doc, Marchbank get there naturally in the next few years.

Have other teams found a steal in the draft, sure and for most of those steals it is a risk reward metric that only the teams that have a mostly complete list can afford to make (i.e Richmond with Stack).

For all your carrying on, please show me where SOS has used quality picks for rubbish players, my guess is you can't
