2018 LFFL Draft Discussion Thread

List done so get on with the damn picks

 

[fightingfury_88]

Bang! Gaff, Selwood and Viney! 3 2017 Cheetahs picked in a row!

 

[sr20]

Shortlist of 6 with 6 picks in between my picks. All 6 taken. Happy days. Best i take a list of 7 next time.

 

[WAG]

Surprised Seb was still on the board tbh. One of the better outside mids in the league I would have thought.

Yeah, you're a prick. I hoped he might sneak by through to my next pick.

 

[sr20]

Yeh he was number one OM on my list, then Gaff then Murphy.

 

[Pie 4 Life]

Poor Gibbs' trade must have been rejected in LFFL world.

 

[Danoz]

2 ******* picks he needed to last Jordie. Haven’t you had enough time up the top? Dammit.

 

[Pie 4 Life]

My three preferences were J. Roo, Gibbs and Ebert. At least my choice was made easy I guess?

 

[Pie 4 Life]

Both Beams and Sidebottom were in my next cluster of preferences, so they're about right ChickenNuggets it all just depends on coaches preferences. If they've carried over midfielders they won't pick them in the first couple of rounds, if they've carried over talls they generally will. Everyone has a different strategy, there's no one way to win as evidenced by the variety of premiership coaches over the years.

 

[WAG]

I was going to take Beams with my last pick if Seb wasn't there so you're absolutely around the mark to finish 3rd, however we really need to wait for amos 's draft analysis before we can really be sure of anything

 

[Jordie_tackles]

Beams was there, been a bit injure which swayed me slightly, would have had to be heavily considered from here though.

 

[ChickenNuggets]

Yeah ok makes me feel a bit better. Wasn't sure if I was getting a bargain or getting bit in the a$$ but looks like I'm on the right track at least. Now let's see if my next preference can get through 20 odd picks again haha

By mid-draft often your picks probably will, after the absolute top picks are gone and we're down to the final say 5-7 rounds it really becomes preference about who coaches think will improve to contend for a starting spot.

 

[Pie 4 Life]

I thought if there's one bloke likely to benefit from the extra boost to marking... it's probably Jeremy Howe.

 

[WAG]

Ahhh fightingfury_88 you campaigner. Thought he would slip through.

Ahhh fightingfury_88 you campaigner. Thought he would slip through.

Ironically I was going to pick him a few rounds ago if I didn't get the Zorko/Ebert combo for utility/tackler. Surprised he lasted this long, thought he was a good get with good potential.

 

[Jordie_tackles]

He was the last elite tackler

 

[Jordie_tackles]

And sorry had a obstetrician appointment with the wife which held me up!

 

[Pie 4 Life]

Damn it WAG I was hoping everyone would go mids Wanted Witherden at my next pick!

 

[Pie 4 Life]

Sam Docherty gone for the year with an ACL. Unlucky for BW . Unfortunately can only LTI at end of the draft and pick someone else or carry him for the season and carry him over.

 

[WAG]

Ouch. That hurts.

No Gibbs or Docherty for Carlton now.

 

[BW]

Ouch. Surprised there isn’t an in-draft rule that you can replace a LTI in draft, doesn’t benefit the whole competition to effectively knock a team out of contention before the season even starts, the more even a comp the better......but life goes on
