Title: GWS Draftees and Rookies
Post by: Ricochet on November 27, 2013, 02:57:04 PM
They say, we say: Club-by-club verdicts on the 2013-14 Pre-Season and Rookie Drafts

They say
'We did pick some key position players [in the NAB AFL Draft], but in our first couple of years we brought in a lot of midfielders. We also lost Josh Bruce to St Kilda over the trade period, so we needed to replace him. We think we've now got a good mix of midfielders and key position players, which will hold us in good stead for the future.' - list manager Stephen Silvagni

We say
The Giants know they must start producing wins in season three, and they have put themselves in a position to be more competitive with some strong off-season signings. Lamb's selection on Wednesday was the final move in a mature-age recruiting spree that also netted Shane Mumford, Heath Shaw, Dylan Addison and Josh Hunt. Add draftees Tom Boyd and Josh Kelly and the returning Jon Patton, and put another pre-season behind the remainder of the young list, and there is reason for optimism about 2014. - Mark Macgugan

Didn't know where else to post this, and didn't wanna start a new thread... but Rory Lobb debuts!

yeah, it's great to see. Mohr especially is so important to our backline.
