Thinking about what could have got us to the ultimate prize and thought our unlucky 1st rounders (or alternative selections) would have been it.
Consider the following:
2013 draft- A fully fit 2 season experienced power forward (Apness) to replace our rookie selection tall forward
2012 Draft- A quick skilful aboriginal outside midfielder (Simpson) moulding his game on Stephen Hill
2011 Draft- Bradley Hill rather than delisted Alex Forster
2010 Draft- Jack Darling rather than unfortunate Jayden Pitt
2009 Draft- A Pavlich clone with the ability to play medium tall forward changing through the midfield (Mora)
Makes what our lower round selections and older group have achieved so much more remarkable.
