The fact is that if you can develop 3 decent, regular senior players out of any draft, you've done well. Just look how our 2010 draft choices are shaping up.
2010 doesn't look so crash hot if crippa leaves, but no one can deny we've got a beauty in sippa and ledger could yet prove to be a "decent, regular senior player."

2011 by this standard was very good - Saad, Milera, and Ross on the slow burn should prove fruitful over time.

Prior to this we drafted Stanley, and other decent pick ups along the way have been Simpkin, Newnes, Dunell, Wilkes, Markworth. If 3 of those 6 become good, solid players, we've done well.

Leaving 2012 - Lee

Our list is crazy, we've got this top flight of seasoned veteran guns, then there's Jack and Armo in the middle, then the rest of the list at the bottom, all kids who could be anything...

Don't think it's fair to judge strength of the draft on clubs decisions to trade picks! You may not rate awellingham as a star but he is definite best 22 at near enough if not every club in the league, there's not 17 sure things for that in any draft! WC decision based on their position and the immediate impact he could have!


Maybe this year?
