I can't format tables for crap on this site but here it is anyway (for you enjoyment)

A few of the best picks there ended up at other clubs. Robbo ended up a 250 game player. Jacobs over 200. Joesph, Ellard, Graham and Rowe were ok given where they were picked. Levi, who is not mentioned, who as good pick at rookie pick 44. Won't often find genius's there where they were selected and couldn't be expected to carry the club to glory. That's the nicest I can come up with, as when you look at it that is nothing short of a disaster. Bower, not mentioned, wouldn't have been too bad if he wasn't picked at 18.
Doesn't Cripps stand out!
