Mr MysteryGuest is skipped at 1.06pm

C'mon baby!

 

[Mr MysteryGuest]

lol sorry, sorry everybody

 

[Deaneus!]

you're skipped baby! my turn!

 

[Mr MysteryGuest]

I have run out other players I want, so I'm taking someone who might definitely won't play at least 2/3 of the season, but he might come back to play 5-6 quality games which could be handy.
This will be my last pick.

Pick 518 - The Tune Squad select Brodie Smith

Still reckon there's enough players out there that will play more than Smithers but I commend the bold strategy.

yeah but they all suck

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Yeah, I can't see Brodie playing any games next year but, then again, Himmelberg probably won't either. Might get one or two but no more, he's a while away yet.

 

[Scorpus]

I feel like a ridiculous amount of Crows players have been selected now. 8 Crows remain, 36 taken, when we consistently use a low amount of players

 

[Mr MysteryGuest]

I probably would have passed if I didn’t take Smith, so I don’t see it as big risk.

They often go way too early as well. B. Crouch went at #50 when there were better mids (Duncan and Cripps) available. Gov went at #68 and, even Poholke at #365 when there were better options available who will also play far more games.

We're 29 rounds in. We have at worst, a top 5 list in the league. 7 more than league average (considering we have 18 drafters) isn't that ridiculous, especially when every drafter is a Crows fan.
That said, Crows have consistently been going earlier than they should have.
Players like ROB, Fogarty, Poholke, Gallucci, Otten, Himmelberg, Jarman and Smith will likely play less than 8 games.

Lol you think Duncan is better than Brad?

I think it's highly likely 3/4 of the players you listed will play 0 or just a few games. I don't think it's worth drafting those sort of players but maybe others have a different strategy.

On the other hand, only 25 Richmond players have been drafted and they played 38 guys last year

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Based on last season he was (although Brad was still good). Should've been AA over Selwood.
