Zam is much more the type we needed to put on the list, I would've taken him over Dumont every time.
Disappointed about Lewis though.

Garlett*

Ask the guys on chat during the draft just how pissed I was we didn't take him

[kilbluff1985]

The leadership group didn't want him last year they prob didn't this year can't bring in a player when the senior players don't want to

Orazio looks like a gun anyway

I guess we will just have to wait and see

The fact Bassett is "a huge wrap for the kid" is enough for me, he saw him play first hand and can obviously pick a talent.

"During his four-year stint at The Parade, the newly appointed assistant coach at Essendon maintained a near-perfect strike rate when it came to predicting which of his SANFL players would be offered an AFL opportunity.

Among others at Norwood called upon by an AFL club during his reign, Bassett foresaw the drafting of Paul Puopolo to Hawthorn, Nick Duigan, Sam Rowe and Jaryd Cachia to Carlton, Dean Terlich to Melbourne and Nick Lower to the Western Bulldogs."

Garlett will never have the dedication to develop enough consistency to be elite I don't think.
