Didn’t know you worked in our FD. Coz you do, right? I mean, why else would you be so sure?

If a football department of any side started to take notice of supporters whims and fancies and at times hysterical comments regarding the list , team changes , recruiting etc, then they don't deserve to hold those positions.

The club may very well read supporter sites just to gauge the reaction of supporters but I am certain they would not be passing comment to the football department.

Maybe I was asking too much. I’ll take Zane Duursma and Larkey from North

Just a note on Nick Larkey he was taken at pick 73, I repeat pick 73 in 2016. Go back and look at our 2016 trades, Lewis, Hibbo, Hannah at 46 Pat McKenna Later on then Dion Johnstone at 64 all before Larkey at pick 73.  There is a lot of luck involved and hindsight is a beautiful thing. Larkey is also on record as saying he will stay a Rood for life not interested in free agency etc

Precisely.  A lot of skill and research but also a fair bit of luck especially in the higher picks.

Wasn't James Hird in the 80s and Chris Grant >100?

These sort of “how did they land there” picks are becoming rarer due to better scouting (Oliver a very clear example of this). So unlikely that there will be these sorts of generational talents multiple times per drafts like they used to. Expect Seaston. Obviously he is generational 😜
