Yet we take Spargo with a top 30 pick, a slow midget with no tricks. Not saying Miers is the answer to all our problems, but there have been some bizarre selections over the past couple of drafts.

I bet you weren’t saying the same thing late last year

    Spargo really was a strange pick. I'm sure they preferred him over someone like Miers as he was also a midfielder in his underage years. The trouble is, Spargo will never be a midfielder at AFL level. This might seem strange as he played some solid games last year, but these small players so often come in and have promising first seasons and then don't show much improvement. Our very own JKH is a prime example of this. I know a lot of people on here rate Spargo quite highly, where do those people see him playing throughout his career?

    The more I look deeper into our recruitment the more I question it, which is strange because at the same time I think we are very well placed for the future. I just think with everything we have had at our disposal we could be even better now with better recruitment and list management decisions (and I see them very much as the same thing, so the we wouldn't have drafted Josh Kelly doesn't really work, thats a cross against Jason Taylor for not identifying his elite talent).

    Another one missed. Add Charlie Constable. 

    Miers was predicted as a 20-30 draftee. Went # 57

    Constable was predicted as a 15-20 draftee. Went # 36. 

    Hardly a surprise that both are very good players. 

    A modern problem with recruiters, both are players.

    Constable is a classic case of a mid who knows how to find the pill, but the knock on him was his lack of pace. They focused on what he couldn't do rather on his ball winning assets.

    I rate Spargo who IMO has a good footy brain. He would have looked decent round 1 and 2 in that Cats forward line

    • AFLW REPORT: Adelaide

      Last week’s bitter disappointment turned into player-led resolve as Captain Kate Hore marched her team onto a pristine Princes Park under perfect skies.
      The #DeeArmy banner said Bring The Heat and the Demons delivered a fierce, high-quality contest and ultimately outworked and outpaced the gallant Adelaide Crows to win by 11 points.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

      Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.
