@ajsadauskas@afl the worst part about Cornes isn’t his hatred of the Tigers, or his irrational vendettas against certain players, or even that he’s basically just a clickbait machine. It’s that he’s *still* an All Australian selector FFS!
@ziltoid101@ajsadauskas They cleared out the experienced players and opted to bottom out. That only works if your clump of low draft picks turn out to be generational talent, like Hawthorn (Mitchell, Lewis, Hodge, Buddy, Roughy) and Richmond (Martin, Cotchin, JR8, Edwards, Rance). Even then it’s no guarantee (see: St Kilda). Time will tell I guess.

@ajsadauskas @afl You only get Mitchell/Lewis/Hodge/Franklin/Roughead once in a lifetime.
