Message: [QUOTE="Sproj, post: 3451611, member: 8423"] Well: Pick 1 - Swallow - still at the Suns Pick 2 - Bennell - Retired but was at the Suns until being delisted, later picked up by the Dockers Pick 3 - Day - still at the Suns Pick 7 - Caddy - Traded to the Tigers in 2017 (after 6 years, pretty decent amount of time at the Suns) Pick 9 - Prestia - Traded to the Tigers in 2017 (after 6 years, pretty decent amount of time at the Suns) Pick 10 - Gorringe - Traded to Carlton in 2016 and was then delisted end of that season, so basically a bust Pick 11 - Lynch - Was captain and traded to the Tigers in 2019 (after 8 years and while the Suns were a basket case) Pick 13 - Tape - Played at the Suns his whole career until delisted in 2016 Pick 39 - Taylor - Played two years at the Suns and then delisted (not uncommon for a player picked in the 30s) Pick 49 - Gillbee - Played three years at the Suns and then delisted So 4 of those 10 went elsewhere, all of whom were after several years. How many first year players at NRL clubs are still there 6 or 7 years later? The draft is not perfect but this is nowhere near as bad as some would like you to believe. [/QUOTE]
