Team List Best KPF we have developed since drafts began?

[707]

This was a talking point today in a conversation I was having. Drafts began in 1986? from memory so that's more than 30 years.

Who is the best KPF we have drafted and developed in those 30 years? Plugger, BBBH & Buddy ineligible.

Mick O'Loughlin.

Warrick Capper?

Warrick Capper?

If 707s criteria is since drafting began in 1986, I doubt Capper would be eligible. He started with us in 1980/81 as an U19 - he wasn’t drafted - and was gone by 87. All of his development was pre-drafting.

In fact, if 707s criteria is the last 30 years - which he stated - technically Capper becomes as ineligible as Plugger, BBBH & Buddy, as we recruited Wiz from Brisbane within the last 30 years

The cupboard's been pretty bare for various reasons, mainly because we've poached them, or they left for greener pastures

I can't think of anyone off the top of my head who surpasses Sam Reid, might have to do some more research!!

Ryan Fitzgerald.

Lewis Roberts-Thomson. Premiership-winning KPF in 2012.

Cupboard is fairly bare eh? Sam Reid may just be the best in 30 years, sobering thought.

Micky O I'm thinking more of a third tall rather than a KP.

Micky O played alot at FF.

Played HFF before he filled out.
