*Also please note, that in the case of Academy bidding, any player bid on inside the first round (i.e. Owens) cannot be matched by their respective club (St Kilda). Jesse Motlop is also a special case, wherein if he gets bid on before Pick 40, due to zoning, he can't be matched by Fremantle either

[Gee Class Loco]

I’ll do Hawthorn if u like

 

[foodles05]

I'm happy to do it but know absolutely nothing about the victorian kids. Like literally watched them at the U/16 nationals and have never seen any of them play since haha.

 

[Shadow89]

TC, you can have Freo if you like (another decent hand)

 

[Shadow89]

I’ll do Hawthorn if u like

Hawthorn it is!

...Psst I know it'll be tough, but you actually have to pick decent ones for them, not sabotage them with useless kids

Sounds to me like Adelaide would be a perfect fit for you!

 

[Turbocat]

TC, you can have Freo if you like (another decent hand)

fine..

 

[Shadow89]

fine..

Not happy with Freo? Can go Sydney, WC or GWS as the three other decent hands (just thought Freo was the best option left available )

 

[Cameron_Jezza]

Can I do GWS

 

[Turbocat]

Not happy with Freo? Can go Sydney, WC or GWS as the three other decent hands (just thought Freo was the best option left available )

Freo is fine. all good.

when do you expect to run it?

 

[Shadow89]

Alright awesome

Reckon I'll give people 'til the end of the weekend, and then I'll start it from Monday night? Probably end up giving people 2 teams, given there's only 8 of us so far

No rush on people responding once we start it (no 30 minute limits or anything)

 

[Shadow89]

Can I do GWS

Yep all good, GWS is yours!

 

[year of the cat]

Happy to do North. Only time in my life I’ll get to read out the first pick in a draft.

Done!

P.S. to be fair, it's the only time anyone associated with Geelong is ever gonna read out the Number 1 draft pick

 

[Vdubs]

Happy to have Essendon or Carlton if free

 

[Shadow89]

Happy to have Essendon or Carlton if free

Both are still free, so choice is yours!

 

[CleverCount]

Sounds fun to me! I’ll happily do the picking for the Eagles if still available/needed ofcourse

 

[Shadow89]

Haha are you actually an Eagle's supporter, because I love that

Yep Eagles are still available, and you're more than welcome to take them

 

[CleverCount]

Haha Ofcourse I’m one of the very few Eagles supporters over here in melb who proudly walks around in my Eagles attire and you can always get a “yew” from fellow Perth transplants

I dont mind doing a 2nd team if you need it but only if we dont have enough people i dont want to stop people getting a go.
