I'm basing this on watching people play football.
Not on pre draft write ups.
None of these guys looked like they belonged in an AFL jumper and it showed on game day (Watson showed glimpses sporadically) but none of them showed the sort of form to even get noticed.
You're better off referencing troy menzel.
He showed more ability than most drafted before him.
As i said earlier, i didn't watch them play.
Just like i haven't seen Lukosius play this year. But going by what people have said...
I've had years where i've watched U18's comps and got on top of who has it and who hasn't, but not every year.
That year, i didn't see squat, thats why i remember going around reading what the boys were like. At the time, we clearly got some bargains based on what the majority of predictions were saying.
Question is, were those predictions wrong?
or
Did the carlton put the kiss of death on them like so many before them?
