2011 AFC Drafting Game

[Dirty Bird]

Does anyone else think we should shorten the time limit to 12 hours so that we can speed it up a little bit? This is taking way too long. If you're unavailable to make a pick within that time, you can always PM another participant and give them your pick.

10pm-10am?
if anyone here has a life, that means 1 hour availability max

garh BACCS, if only you made your pick at this time yesterday we could fly through another 4 picks right now (because i know WAG's picks, and he knows mine)

 

[Mego Red]

Fine with me.

Me too.

That's really cutting into my drinking time but i guess it's fine with me. I like my drinking time.

 

[Mego Red]

Who we waiting on now?

 

[WAG]

Who we waiting on now?

Still arms4crows.

 

[BACCS]

It's been 24 hours, shoot your picks through riggy.

 

[Dirty Bird]

My round 13 pick - Brett Ebert
WAG's round 13 pick - Robbie Gray
WAG's round 14 pick - he hadn't decided from his 4 players last time I spoke
My round 14 pick - Nathan van Berlo (WAG wasn't considering him, so it's sage for me to make that pick )

 

[ringo200]

Riggy, don't put his choices up for everyone to see, what if he is hoping for them to fall to his next pick?

 

[WAG]

#143 - Robbie Gray
[FONT=Times New Roman,serif][FONT=Verdana,sans-serif]I'm not surprised Gray has slipped this far, but I am happy to pick him up. If his body can stay fit for any length of time this guy can be a match winner. It is also a nice addition to my WAGs![/FONT][/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman,serif][/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman,serif][FONT=Verdana,sans-serif]#144 Jefferey Garlett[/FONT][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman,serif][FONT=Verdana,sans-serif]After some serious flipfloping, i've gone with Garlett to finalise my forward line. Part of the three amigos down at blue land, Garlett kicked 39 goals in his second season of AFL. I'll be looking for a few more from him in 2011 and to form a formidable partnership with Betts .[/FONT][/FONT]

Yeah, i should get an extra couple of picks in the next round or something !

no, no, 24 hours, no bending the rules because people are impatient

 

[XztatiK]

uuuuuggghhh

 

[Mego Red]

Didn't we agree to change the rules? FFS - we had one pick in 48 hours!

 

[Dirty Bird]

and some people have a life
ams has normally made her pick on time, it's not like we're waiting 24 hours every single time she makes her pick like we had to for MAD afl fan

and look at the times she's online, it's almost always 6-12pm every night

I'm not changing the rules to 12 hours, because some of you are impatient.

[ringo200]

Is it really that big a deal if every now and then we have to wait a while for picks? We still have plenty of time to get things done and we've almost got our 22 picked. I like the rule at 24 hours, it gives more people a chance to have a go at the game.

 

[WAG]

C'mon, it's been 49 minutes since the last pick. Let's keep this moving!!

 

[BACCS]

Pick 147 - Michael Walters

I reckon he is the best small foward left, and showed some genuine crumbing skills late last year, including in a final against Geelong. Will see plenty of game time this year.

Pick 149: David Hille

Sam Jacobs went 55. Hille 149. As much of a Sauce fan I am, that doesn't seem right. Kinda glad I left my ruckman so late now.
Todd Goldstein was very close. If he didn't still have McIntosh in his way he'd be a lock here.

Rebel's pick 150: Hayden Ballantyne

The dirty little staging bastard is the best pure small-forward available. I doubt many freo supporters would put Walters ahead of him. Ballsy pick BACCS!

 

[Mego Red]

They were literally the two players I was considering for my pick. I really though one of them would last to the next round!

Todd Goldstein was very close. If he didn't still have McIntosh in his way he'd be a lock here.

you do know McIntosh's pre-season has been decimated, and he probably wont be back untill round 1-2
So he'll have to take back his spot (hence why if available, he's going to be the first player I take when I have to start filling up the bench)

 

[Dirty Bird]

They were literally the two players I was considering for my pick. I really though one of them would last to the next round!

I'm now happy I didn't reach for Ballytyne
I considered him in the 6th (went with Kennedy) and 7th rounds (went with Milne)
