They also got Moore at 9 and Pittard at 16 in that draft too.
Forever known as the "make a power fan swear" draft.
Fyfe went at 20 in that same draft!
The rest of the top 20 seem pretty average though, with only Dustin Martin and Daniel Talia what i would consider A graders that went in that top 20

Am i right in saying Butcher instead of Ryder/Lobbe up forward has offered something different for the Power? Particularly defensively?
(Watch all the wankers jump on this)
Butcher offers a contest, he's mobile and crashes packs. He doesn't mark it enough and his kicking is well publicised. However, watch the last 10 minutes of the GWS game and Wingard kicks two goals, both from a pack burst open by Butcher.Friday night, Wingards second in 5 minutes, on the back of a Butcher contest.
So, yes, he offers a hell of a lot more than Lobbe does when Lobbe goes forward and that's a blight on Lobbe and he needs to fix that. Having said that, his game at Alberton on Saturday wouldn't be enough to get him back into the AFL side IMO.
I think in the last two weeks Butcher may have brought himself another year on our list. I'm somewhat sickened by it, but I think he may have.

He's been running on the clubs anti-gravity treadmill.

Don't think that'll happen. Bobby will be lucky to be running in the preseason with his hip/back complaint and nobody would be taking him if he went for a medical right now. In fact, I've heard he's at best a long term proposition to return to AFL footy.

Yeah well I don't think chucking the cheque book at Dixon is the answer.

I think Westhoff plays the role Lynch plays at Adelaide when he's at his best. Albeit he's about 15cm taller, he's no less agile.
Do Adelaide look too tall with Jenkins, Walker, Lynch, Jacobs, Talia and Hartigan?
I think Westhoff needs to be released from inside F50 to play his best footy.

I'm not sure the pay packet will be as big as assumed. He's very keen to get back under a Hinkley lead team.
