Local boy and childhood Crows fan Sid Draper was desperate to get to Adelaide at pick 4, and went out of his way to ring Matthew Nicks ahead of the draft.
Speaking on Roo, Ditts and Loz, Draper unveiled his bold play.
SID DRAPER:
“I just wanted to get my point across that I’d be more than happy to play for the club.”
Speaking to Crows legend Mark Ricciuto, Draper said he was over the moon to land at Adelaide.
