Gifted player, should have been a superstar, but never quite made it to the top echelon of players.

On what grounds, LM?
I thought he got the most of out of himself.

The fact that Adelaide chose him over Pavlich is my first point, Kenny had much more to offer the game than what he produced IMO.

Just to name a few.......

I thought Rahilly and Mensch were as good as expected, Bray had a bit of hype about him but the other two I don't remember.

reckon Zac Clarke goes alright, you definitely see it more when Sandi has been out injured. Would in all likelihood be one of the game's best big men when Sandi retires.

I reckon David Mensch got everything out of himself he could. He just wasn't that good. To go on and play over 150 games was a good effort by Menschy and he was a bit of a stalwart at Geelong and the 'best of the rest' after Ablett, Stoneham and Brownless left. Then we got the mighty Kent Kingsley

and Menschy started to fade into the background....

REB

Same, plus I reckon he he'd be the coolest dude in the AFL, I like his song "diamonds on the inside" and his rendition of "sexual healing" kicks ass over the Marvin Gaye original.

No doubt there are 100s over the years who didnt achieve what they could have due to a number of reasons. Who would be the players you think 'wasted their talent'?

"Colin Sylvia has reportedly been arrested for possession and trafficking drugs at The Blackburn Hotel in the East of Melbourne."

Dont know if this is in the wasted talent or unlucky injury wise but Matt Magurie pulled the pin yesterday due to on going concussion symptons. He played 99 games for the Saints till he busted his leg pretty bad then played another 71 for the Lions after signing 1 year deals for 6 years straight.

If he didnt bust his leg could of been a 250 game player at the Saints but alias not to be.

Freo coaching staff may have been wrong when they said he didn't get enough of the pill.....
Possibly not the "possession" they were on about....

Lads, lets just put this one on ice until we find out more information. I'm sure there's something in the pipeline that's not just smoke and mirrors.
