The 2012 draft wasn't the deepest draft in recent times, but the first round was stacked with talent.

GWS

Pick 3. Jack Macrae 

This draft was magic for GWS, until they got to the podium. The top three picks gave the Giants first shot at the best kids in the competition and they didn't shoot at 100 per cent. One of the best onballer's in the game, Macrae would have been a monster addition to the Giants midfield. Despite kicking the match winner against them in the 2016 preliminary final, we're sure they'd still have him back.
