Hanging s*** on who apart from brain deads like yourself. You make dumb people sound smart. I havent hung s*** on one pick even if I dont agree with them all.

0riginaly pick 20 in the '04 draft. I rate him and we need to give Lenny a hand in and under which Polo can do. And as far as picking him up from a cr*p side, how could anyone shine with the coach that Richmond had.

If I have any beef with the Saints selections is that we could have picked up a decent ruck with our first pick and we missed the opportunity.

Did you point out to him that he has a picture on the AFL draft site, so he must be good.

Was a highly rated junion. St.Kilda had a crack at obtaining his services after his first season at the Tigers, so I always had an interest in his career.

I'm not so sure he's the dud that most think he is. I will watch this one with a keen eye.

After we picked Zac dawson 2 yrs ago, I will support any player we draft until they prove otherwise. Let's at least give him a chance rather than trying to be the first to say, 'I told you so.'

Who cares we picked him up for almost nothing. I am happy with our 1st 5 picks.

Are his skills better than Clint Jones?

Could he be a better tagging option due to the upside with the ball in hand?

Skill level needs to lift and CJ definately isnt blessed there.


Maybe this year?

I would have thought it was more ofa case that we liked getting players from any club....

Over say the a last 5 or so seasons.....there would be only a small number of clubs that have not had an ex run around in our colours....

Dons only just missed out...though Milne once did.

Cats
Freo
Hawks
Blues
WCE
Tigers
Swans
Dogs
PA
Lions
Adelaide

interesting that in his last game for richmond he had 19 touches, 4 tackles, 4 inside 50s. not bad for a game they lost by 82 points to the eventual premiers. if he can average those sort of numbers for us he'll be an excellent pickup.

Jesus you'd reckon we'd just traded Riewoldt for Monkhorst.

We got Polo for bugger all. What was he? Pick 421?

Our window is now. We got kids with our best picks. Wasting Pick 421 on some short skinny one trick pony from Bumf*ck, Idaho would have been absolutely pointless...

Polo is worth a roll. Gamble was an absolute no brainer.
