Crows have talent to look forward to now!
I think the crows recruiting has been poor in recent times. The crows persued Carey and gave up pick two. crows recruited meeson, angwin, gibson, pieffer, bode (though was good). James fantasia is now gone even though he picked up tippett, sellar (jury still out) and mackay the others were not good. I know the crows didn't have high draft picks but he could have done better!

Now from just one season the crows fan's have something to look forward to with improvement from tippett, sellar, mackay. Also there is Moran, Dangerfield, Otten, Jacky, cooke, Armstrong and Kite. There is definately some talent in this group.

The forward line once a weakness mabey a strength again since the likes of Modra and jarman and robran. The crows forward line now looks potentially dangerous with the likes of Tippett, Sellar, Gill, Hentshel (how good was he before injury), Jacky and Jericho/douglas.

Have your say! What do you think of the new talent? what do you think about the recruiting over the years by James Fantasia? What are the crows prospects in years to come? Discuss it all!

We desperately need Gill back at CHF - so that will be the end of McGregor.
Fanasia made some good and bad decisions - taking McGregor over Pav was bad, but he wasnt to know at the time.
I would like to see Sellar in that need now and give tippet more of a run in the ruck.
I think Dangerfield will be an awesome player and that the decsion to take him over Ebert was correct. Not sure about Jacky though - he should be alot faster for his size.
The main thing we need is speed - although our midfield has good players like Reilly and Knights - we need more fast players. I had hoped that stiffy was going to be released into the midfield this year, but that hasnt happened.

i agree with jacky he doesn't seem like those indigenous players that are quick evasive and kick goals!
