Well, that wake up call backfired. Was hanging out for a ruck Comben being Vic Country as per Brisbane policy, then Bryan who will be a better genuine ruck. Jeremias made me match Cumberland with my earmarked ruck pick at #42 and the options didn't last. Go back to sleep ferris.
BTW good picks guys
Like the Bryan and Comben picks and what has happened here with multiple guys wanting the quality ruckmen here might mean someone will have to go fairly early to make sure of getting them i reckon . ala TDK at 30.
Personally i reckon they both deserve to go higher than this in this draft. Bryan is a very smart, productive ruckman but very raw still. Great athlete too as Ferris mentions. Rucked really well in the NAB GF and against the Casey men on the MCG. Comben is a great Forward/Ruck prospect too. Outstanding pack marker as Red Bull mentioned and once again a raw talent coming off limited prep so far.
There's a lot i'm not keen on this draft about, but there's an outstanding ruck option up top, and these 2 guys as well who'll need some time.

LemmingMaster
Out of interest, who is next on his board?
Whether we go with that player will depend on whether I want a chance at him in a few picks’ time...

loving this thread you dreamers, you hopeless outcasts, you expectant god makers......
The only player left on Lemmings board of 40 is Jake Pasini. Give him Pasini and move on imo. Fair to everyone waiting.

If my turn comes up soon, don't worry I'll be back in a couple of hours.
Pick 53. Callum Jamieson - Brisbane Lions
31/07/2000 | 199cm/84kg | Ruck CLAREMONT/WESTERN AUSTRALIA
Again thanks to AFL Draft Central
"Played in the premiership-winning Claremont WAFL Colts side with 34 hitouts on Grand Final day for the Tigers. He has developed quite significantly this season, and while he is a lightly built ruck who is viewed as a long-term prospect, Jamieson is one of the few rucks in this draft crop who received a National Draft Combine invitation. Debuted for the Reserves side late in the year."
Reckon Lions need a young ruck. Missed the higher rated boys.Jamieson is very raw, but some good highlights in limited minutes at the Championships and is the best genuine ruck remaining short of taking the oft overlooked Jeremy Goddard or Ben Kelly who could count as much as a Key utility as ruck. National combine invitee who will be a very slow burn, not uncommon for ruckmen.

Pick 56 - Brisbane - Josh Honey
17/10/2001 | 185cm/82kg | Midfielder/Forward WESTERN JETS/VIC METRO
AFL Draft Central bio.
A real talent at his best, Honey was a shining light for the Western Jets in season 2019. He wins the ball inside or out and can dash from the stoppages, weaving around opponents to find space where few can. He has the capability of going forward and kicking goals, with a touch of X-factor in the way he plays. Honey is still trying to find his consistency and add more of a tank to help him, but he has some eye-catching traits.
Brisbane would probably be out of the draft now, but will continue for the exercise.
Looking at potential upside, hard to go past Honey, both as an outside mid and perhaps more likely as a forward. Vic Metro again varying from recent policy, but we can afford to be a bit more adventurous targeting potential rather than more mundane depth types.

Cumberland and now Honey? * you Coona Blues.
Honey was the real slider I had on my board. Considered him at my last pick but with few even mentioning him as a draftable I thought I would be safe to watch him slide for a little longer.
I am no expert by any means, but I reckon he's one who could well turn out to be a much better footballer than many are thinking. Has a lot going for him.

Pick 57 Rich: Dyson Hilder
A genuine key position defender, Hilder managed to debut across both the League
and Reserves sides for North Adelaide this year, playing a total of 13 games in the SANFL. He also provided great rebound out of defence for the Croweaters and is one of the better key position prospects in this
year’s draft. Readymade physically, he still has room to build on his game.
Didnt think he would last until pick 57 so i'm stoked i can still grab him here. A ready made replacement for Rance albeit not as agile he reads the play well and has strong hands.

Strange, I had similar sentiments toward you after forcing me to match Cumberland where I wanted Comben or Bryan.
Bit of an eye opener at how quickly draft plans can go awry.

What do we do if I want to bid on a GWS academy kid? Put in a bid and wait for LemmingMaster again?
Or just assume he matches at this point?

Any bids at this point are basically free to match (197 point discount).
LM has three list spots/picks left. I dare say he'd like the option of trying to pick a roughie late in the draft.
In the main BF phantom he said that the convincing talent seemed to run out ~pick 50 but on the other hand he selected for Carlton all the way to pick 87.
Compromise - give him a couple of hours. If no word, assume he matches...?
