Join Anthony as we try to rank Collingwood's best draft steals since 2000. This is going to be difficult... Follow Pies Footy on Instagram - / pies_footy
Yep. Josh is probably one of the best and most underrated (due to the constant comparisons to his brother) players. If you watch his work ethic week to week, it's hard not to say that, maybe, he will be one of the best Collingwood players of the era.
I know the video is draft steals from the year 2000 and a pretty good list by the way but I thought I'd mention that just 12 months prior to that Collingwood drafted Ben Johnson with pick 62 in '99 draft and played 235 games and obviously part of the 2010 premiership, what a hell of a draft steal that was and what a good player he was.
@@PiesFooty yeah that'd be interesting as well to see what you come up with, keep up the good work mate you obviously put a lot of research and thought into these videos
@@stevemcglashan314 &@PiesFooty Slimmer pickings in the 10 years prior, but Neon Leon (34) in the same draft as Ben Johnson, Farkyn Tarkyn and Mal Michael from rookie drafts... And you may remember a handy bloke at pick 90 in the 1992 draft - by the name of Scott Burns
@@kaiberberich1 yeah great pick up, imagine that a future captain with pick 90! Nathan Buckley said Scotty burns was the best player he played with at Collingwood, that's pretty high praise.
Such a great video!! I had no idea some of these great players weren’t higher picks in the draft! Crazy!!! Always learning interesting facts in your videos!! 🙌🙌
Can’t argue with your number one although I reckon Shaw could have been higher. Often wonder whether Swanny could have made it through to 2018 if not for the freak injury, he would have been going on 34. Such a smart footballer would have been more than handy as a permanent forward in the GF.
Pretty cool vid probably should have excluded father/pick ups as Shaw and Cloke would have gone higher on the open mar 12:17 ket. Perhaps you can offset this with draft disappointments, Ben Kennedy (pick 19) just didn’t make it or Broomhead (20), Freeman (10) and Scharenberg (6) bad injury runs.
Definitely some unfortunate stories there regarding the aforementioned palters you highlighted. I will look into a video like that for sure! Thanks Todd.
This one I’ll need to look into some more as I know GWS put a pre order on him to some sorts before he was even drafted. I’d need to wrap my head around it!
Not the best players - the best draft steals... Otherwise a certain Scott Pendlebury (pick 5) would be numero uno !! Actually - Pendles could still be on the list - he was a steal .. even at pick 5 !!
