The Herald Sun has evaluated North’s Draft track record, scoring the club six out of ten from 2010.

Here’s what they said:


No.1 picks: None

Best bargains: Brent Harvey (46, 1995), David King (46, 1993), Andrew Swallow (43, 2005), Byron Pickett (67, 1996), Corey Jones (60, 2000).

Biggest busts: John McNamara (4, 1988), Chris Lindsay (6, 1986), Robert Pyman (6, 1992), Dylan Smith (6, 2000), David Trotter (9, 2003).

2012 selections: Taylor Garner (18), Ben Jacobs (37), Mason Wood (41), Mitch Wilkins (47), Daniel Currie (56), Taylor Hine (61), Sam Gibson (76 RE), Aaron Mullett (81 RE), Majak Daw (103 RE).

Past three years: Little exposed evidence to judge the Roos recruiters, although those who know say Shaun Atley (17, 2010) will be a star. Kieran Harper (27, 2010) was on the rise before suffering third-year blues in 2013.

Their verdict (from 2010): 6/10
