Is CLG Pat Smith's latest alias, or just his protege?

All I got was, "Well it's only a practice match"
Mind you that was countered with,"Yeah I know, but don't yer have any PRIDE"

Apparently both West Coast and Geelong showed strong interest in him in 2002 Draft but both clubs after various meeting and correspondence let him slip through their net. It was after that draft closed Lethal offered him a spot on our rookie list.
Westener this could prove as devastating as letting Simon Black slip through back in 1997.

Bit the same as saying we shoulda took Polak but we got Sampi instead. The best deal there won't be realised until well into their careers. Polak would be terrific in the Eagles team but, hey, I'm not complaining about Sampi, he's a terrific young footballer.
I sit back pretty satisfied with the draft. We got one of the all time bargains with Dean Kemp at(I think) 113. And didn't the Vics squark about the concessions etc, etc re Kemp and Brett Heady, but they were both legit draft picks(Heady at about 84). A recruiting coup.
McDonald might have been alright but I suspect we have done reasonably well also.
And for your info, it would have been nice to get Black but then he wouldn't have been a part of the terrific Brisbane story. Que sera sera!

And I'm really happy Blackie is "...a part of the terrific Brisbane story."
