Yeah we definitely weren't into Everitt after the draft camp. I remember they said he was kind of full of himself.
They asked him about his weaknesses, and he said kicking which was one of his strengths. The feeling was big brother had coached him to give answers which would improve his draft-ability. Think we ruled a line through him as a result.
Think we were into Frawley at PRE draft night. But obviously the Polak trade made the need for a defender less urgent.
I remember them saying too that Selwood would be a great get, but may not last to 8, and would need his training workload managed his whole career due to a degenerative (knee?) Condition. Geelong have done that bit well.
