2013 draft picks were good today

Post: # 1690989Post parkeysainter »

Billings, Arces, Dunstan from the 2013 draft.

They have copped alot of crap but lets face reality. These KIDS are still only in their 4TH year of AFL football and they were all very good today.

Each of them will be around for many years and develop into even better players when they reach the mid 20 year old mark. Better consistency will come also.

People can disagree but they were well picked players in that draft.

I thought Sinclair was good too.


Rugby League would have to be the stupidest, most moronic and over rated game of all time.

Billings may have had a better year than Bontempli this year.

Did you see The Bont yesterday. Won the game for the doggies, pretty much on his own.

Yep. Sinclair has turned the corner this year.

When you add in another couple of even younger kids in Gresh and Steele who were good today also....hell, they will get better and more consistent also as they get more games into them.

If Acres could stick some velcro on his mitts he'd be unstoppable.

So true. Acres still fumbles too much and can be frustrating making the odd stupid decision. But he's still so very enjoyable to watch. He's just one of those players and provides something different.

Yes. But he was taken in the 2014 Rookie draft.
