Re: Pick 30 - Jake Batchelor

Has a hot spot in his foot apparently. Hopefully it was caught early enough that he only misses a few weeks.

Unfortunate that his logical replacement, Dea, appears to be injured as well because he didn't play for the Burg.

According to the commentory team last night we haven't been able to draft decent footballers to complement our core of Martin, Cotchin, Lids! ::)

They are probably right to an extent though WT.

If we hadn't wasted so many later picks in 2005-2010, we'd be in a much better position right now.

We didn't need stars, just serviceable players. Too many of these picks went missing in action.

After a deplorable 2005 draft and 2006/2007 under acheiving, we seem to be getting right since haven't we? 2008 onward has been OK?

Was surprised to see Batch's height stat at just 188cm - same as Lids. Thought he seemed taller than that.
 
Re: Pick 30 - Jake Batchelor

Completely remarkable (considering he has only played six games ;D)!
