Post by Take_a_Screamer »

While we are waiting for the next main event, this came across my path
and is quite interesting, so I want to share:

A YT video that identifies and ranks the biggest draft STEALS since 2000
Many of these players had slow starts but went on to become amazing and celebrated players.
Our boy is in this. :D

Q. Do we have a hidden gem amongst our current crop of players?

Good video, great to see Swanny on top but last I recall he was pick 58 in the National draft so the video needs to fix its stats
Ed Allen kicked our last goal of the year at the 58minute mark of the last quarter

Correct. He also needs to check out Dean Cox record.
Pick 28 in 2000 rookie draft. Just a lazy 290 games and 6 All Australian nominations. Reckon that’s enough to get a gig on anyones list.

And the best late pick of all time ? Hard to go past # 105 in the 1988 National draft for mine ………. Chris Grant
