    you say that stkilda drafted recyled players this year. they did not. 2004 was the first year in a long time that Stkilda picked up recycled players. In 2005 Stkilda drafted all young players 20 or less except for michael rix who is 25 and has not played for an afl club. the only plyer stkilda recycled in 2005 was in the rookie draft where they redrafted Dylan Pfitzner. Please look at your facts.

    Hi Sue,
    Thanks for you comment. I guess you are right. There first pick of the draft was a 19 year old but it wasn't until 33 as they traded there first pick for Fergus Watts (recycled).

    The problem with doing this (as seen by the Hawks and mentioned in the show) was that it leaves a hole in your list.

    Also on Rix, he has been on AFL Rookie lists (including the Hawks) so he is really recycled.

    JMTC, I really love the fact that you took time to comment.
