Straight Sets Simon

I love the fact that we didn't get the player that was hyped up all year, how many of those players have actually gone on to be become stars?

Good hands, beautiful kicking action.

I will never forget it, ever.

The difference is when I saw his highlights he wasn't rated a top pick.

If we take Oliver I'll be a bit smug because as soon as I saw his highlights (I know it's hard to read a lot into them) I rated him highly.

Did he really say that?

He loved playing against Brisbane.

I meant it was underrated for it's comedic value, the post made no comparison between Toumpas and Parish.

Underrated post.

I'm going to say he could very easily be another Patrick Cripps and I like the look of him a lot, but I've been wrong before.

The fact that they were probably so smug about getting pick 25 for Melksham only for us to then get pick 3 makes it even better.

Classic picket fence.

I really like the look of Oliver, he's got urgency and skill.

Good detective work.

I'm impressed that Shaun Smith was still playing in 2006.

I've rarely seen a draftee likened to a current player actually turn out like that player.

Is it just me, or are there far fewer highlights packages of players this year?

I didn't want Melksham, I have never rated him all that highly but he's here now so of course people like myself are going to (at least try to) support him.

I don't rate Melksham, but I like the fact the club targeted a player and landed him without too much fuss.

Jake Carlisle?

Prove me wrong, Jake.

The problem with this argument is you need to factor in every player drafter by pick 25 or later from those drafts, not just the pick alone.

Wait, Andy Lovell or Brett Lovett?

Did he want Wines?

I've always assumed he is a frequent poster on Demonland, still a small part of me thinks he's a made up character someone puts on as well.
