If I was drafting on name I'm not taking Powell-Pepper. That name has bust written all over it.

that's how I felt about Bontempelli :P

McCluggage has the best name. not even 100% sure how to pronounce it but I'm guessing it's Mc Clug idge

My thoughts exactly, I thought Aish was going to be the next gen freak we were looking for and the Bont was going to be a flop. And you're right on the pronunciation of McCluggage (Well at least in the commentators eyes).

Ainsworth is probably looking at around pick 10 or so, scouts get scared when it comes to height... It's stupid I know. Look at Caleb Daniel, top 5 talent wise, goes 3rd/4th round...

Brodie is an absolute freak though, no doubt he'll go in the top 5. Only thing that scares is his combine results probably wont be the best but, GV breeds some really good top end talent. Simpkin would be top 10 easily too if he didn't break his leg, way too damaging by foot, they're really missing him in that side.

Wow vic country would be showere without Brodie McCluggage and Ainsworth.

Those 3 boys are scary good. All top 5 worthy imo

See their games the other day? 29 touches, 20 odd and 3, and 4 goals in a quarter respectively

hang on they did this in a quarter?

annoyingly i can only see stats not game time.

Nah man, only Ainsworth, Brodie and McCluggage both got those stats for the whole match however Ainsworth went nuts in the third quarter, kicked 4 goals.

Blasphemy! Bont has a name like Kouta which screams gun.

McCluggage also has a good one.

I don't trust anyone with a hyphen. I'm trying to actually think of a good one with a hyphen. David Rhys-Jones is about it. Pittard only started playing well when he dropped the McMillan. LRT kept it but wasn't a superstar. Instead you have dudes like Will Hoskin-Elliot, Jay Kennedy-Harris, Che Cockatoo-Collins and Dillon Viojo-Rainbow.
