Post subject: Important Query regarding this year's draftReply with quote

I haven't written the pies off just yet. Infact with a little bit of luck and spirit I think we can still sneak into the eight. However, if worse comes to worse and we finish poorly and get some good picks this question has to be asked.

It is my understanding that this year's draft age has been raised either 6 months or a year. Wouldn't this imply that this was possibly the worst year's draft to have the top picks in? That we are only getting hacks that didn't cut it last year or a few good players that decided not to nominate last year?

My father and brother work within the TAC structure with the Calder Cannons, and the draft this year isn't going to be as strong as what people think. The top 20 players will be standouts, so each team theoretically will pick up a decent player, however the depth will bottom out after picks 30+, thats the opinion floating around the TAC anyway

Nath sounds good to me, we should have three picks inside the top 20 by the end of the season.
