Worth noting the top end talent available at Pick 9
Appart from Curnow and McKay x 2, there was Hipwood, Dan Rioli, HHimmelberg, Doedee, Gresham, Burton, Ben Keays, Josh Dunkley, Blake Hardwick, Jordan Dawson and Nate Broad
But that's hindsight for ya! Not even Jason Taylor is perfect!
Curnow was seen as getting onto trouble too much, which is typical pre-draft smoke and mirrors. McKay brothers were always seen as top end talent.
I was surprised with the Weid selection, particularly given the (now justified) hype of Curnow and the McKay twins
Can I just say that I'm loving the commitment and spirit that Jake Melksham has shown since his ACL. He could've proudly retired last year, but has the hunger for one last shot. His professionalism in rehab is showing the rest of the list that we must not take winning for granted, this is our time. He's going to be an asset in the back half of the season
Get off the jungle juice, picket!
May is 78, which leaves us with only Lever as a tall back in 2 years.
Or are you claiming Hore, Howes or Turner as our next key back stars? 🤪
