2017 WB Phantom Draft

[CaptainMurphy]

Hoges64
Essendon's pick

Hoges64 you better make a pick because next on the list is the guy I want and I really don't want to give him to you

 

[CaptainMurphy]

Hoges64 15 minutes left, come on mate

 

[Gollo]

Hoges64 you better make a pick because next on the list is the guy I want and I really don't want to give him to you

Then don't bother. If you feel he's an interesting selection then just go with the next guy on the list after said player. Shouldn't be your fault that the drafter takes too long. I'm still annoyed that ducksonthepond took Mutch by default.

 

[Hoges64]

I know a number of my supporters want me to take Ben Long, but I think Long at low 40's is reaching, and I reckon we'll be better served with Brandon Parfitt.

Thommo333
Geelong's pick

I considered that but I felt it would be cheating to my own advantage.

It is annoying huh.

 

[Thommo333]

Geelong select mature aged defender Luke Ryan

Gollo
Adelaide's pick

 

[Gollo]

Pick 44: Adelaide Crows (bid)

Jacob Allison (Brisbane Lions Academy)
H: 194
W: 79

Bio: Tall, athletic, productive utility who had a terrific 2015. Penetrating kick, good contested player.

Adelaide want midfield depth, however Allison offers a risky selection which could majorly pay off. I see him as a tall, contested midfielder in the future, and his athleticism and skills could make him one of the steals of this draft.

LittleG
Do you want to match? With no remaining picks with points value you'll go into debt, with 165 points coming off your third round pick next year. I guess try to make the decision you think Brisbane would.

 

[Yojimbo]

Geelong select mature aged defender Luke Ryan

Moonee Valleys finest, good pick.

 

[Dav1d]

I'm impatient now

 

[Gollo]

I'm impatient now

So am I. How long are we giving LittleG to make a decision? He was last on at 3.29pm.

 

[CaptainMurphy]

Yeah I'm not sure. An hour maximum, but should if be less time than that?

 

[Yojimbo]

He was so busy trying to jag a Gold Coast academy kid he plumb
forgot they had their own academy.

 

[Gollo]

Yeah I'm not sure. An hour maximum, but should if be less time than that?

To be honest, considering they don't even have the required points in this year's draft to match the bid, should Brisbane even be allowed to match? This is a mock draft with no ramifications to next year's, so if you were allowed to go into deficit, any academy club could match all bids. Deficit literally means nothing this draft.

Yeah it is a bit strange I suppose, hence my advice to him about trying to think what would Brisbane would actually do. You know what, executive decision, time's up, Allison is yours.

 

[CaptainMurphy]

Pick 45
Syndey
Brennan Cox

Getting Cox here is perfect, and makes me feel a lot better for taking Scrimshaw over Logue. Sydney need tall defenders, and even if they didn't Cox is good value here.

The man himself VitalDread is up with Melbourne's pick

 

[CaptainMurphy]

I'm off to the pub but will be on my phone.

 

[Dav1d]

I'm off to the pub but will be on my phone.

Hope you spill beer on your pants

 

[Yojimbo]

Dedication to the Draught yes, but sadly not to the Draft.

 

[VitalDread]

Melbourne select Hamish Brayshaw

 

[Dav1d]

Wizard17
Your time is now

 

[Turtle3]

Melbourne select Hamish Brayshaw

Arrghhhh was banking on him sliding further down the draft

 

[VitalDread]

Arrghhhh was banking on him sliding further down the draft

Really glad he dropped this low
Handy pick up
