Adelaide Crows draft game

[Mad Dog]

....I'm good to go as soon as we get a sixth.....and you other 5 want to assume the "prepare to be destroy-ated position"





ps....I assume there's no time limit between picks as some of us are in and out.....and not always around......

and how do we decide who goes first ?...could be critical.....

I just hope the boss doesn’t come back for the afternoon, he asked me what I was doing Thursday as he was reading over my shoulder and consequentially found some work for me to do.

Who goes first? Well I originally had it as who nominated to participate (me, you, Gets, Kimi, FP and then 6th) and would take it in that order.

Yes, this draft could take a few days or weeks to complete. Just post your selection when it s your pick and keep checking it for player already drafted. I will update the original list so participants know who are left and who is remaining.

Just post you’re selection with the number (pick 35) and name (Tyson Stenglein) of player drafted and I will collaborate the list already on line.

i second that ps re no timeframe...
perhaps a post count decides the order, although that would probably work against me?? highest post count first pick etc etc??

I was going to give you a shout out Warrick but forgot. Sorry mate.

* I pinched this for the BL board as it looked like a fantastic idea but saying that no one ever has an original idea in the world any more

 

[Fred Phillis]

having seconded mad dog's 'no timeframe" clause...i now wish he'd hurry up, anticipation as to whether tom gilligan or ashley fernee goes as no.1 is building

Nah couldn't care less. I suggest you go with 5 people because it takes a while a complete (and we only had 4). That is, unless you really do want it to last the summer.

You could also mix up the order of the draft to make it fairer for all, i.e. an example:

team 1
team 2
team 3
team 4
team 5

team 3
team 4
team 5
team 2
team 1

5
1
4
3
2

4
5
2
1
3

2
3
1
5
4

Note: ill delete my posts once you get started.

I had fergus Watts as number 1

 

[Mad Dog]

ok - I'm about to tee off.

do we need to nominate positions - or do we position the side after our 22 are selected.

Surely the teams need to make sense "positionally" so as a suggestion....is it possible to build a team so that everyone can see who has what positions yet to fill.

ie - my first 6 choices could be forwards.....then obviously this would narrow my choices to non-forwards.....

....or am I just overcomplicating it....

.....thoughts ?

....and then I'll make the first selection

 

[Mad Dog]

btw - I will sticky the thread until we're done...

 

[Gets!]

Someone please let Romani Negri slide to 3!

 

[Fred Phillis]

FWIW: I think positions should be nominated...eg: A Saliba (rover)
but a player's position is up to the discretion of the drafter, ie you could have bickley as a centreman, back pocket or whatever

 

[Mad Dog]

I agree - ie - Chris Groom CHF.....

thoughts C98, Gets, Kimi

??




btw - Groom isn't my #1 pick.....

 

[-VC-]

Ooooh, I'll be sixth!

Build a squad first and then once you have your 22 spend some time, putting them in to positions.

 

[Mad Dog]

Build a squad first and then once you have your 22 spend some time, putting them in to positions.

well that makes sense in a way because as a selector......if you don't have your mind on positions then your side will turn out crappola anyway.....and wont be voted best.

...I'm happy to go either way.

 

[Gets!]

Yep I agree with Go Sarge. Build the squad (you will roughly know what you need), then after the picks, position the team.

 

[Mad Dog]

Ooooh, I'll be sixth!

Vic Crow are you in ????

 

[Mad Dog]

We may as well get started and the 6th person can go last.

As soon as you are ready Mad Dog – you are on the clock.

Round 1

Pick 1 – Mad Dog

Here we go

Pick 1 – the great man

(2) - Mark Ricciuto





btw.......heckling and sledging is encouraged within reasonable bounds.......

......so suffer in your jocks everyone.....

 

[Gets!]

Pfttt Rooo....what a dud

 

[Fred Phillis]

surprising choice indeed
