This is round 2 of the Carlton Board Draft voting process. 8 teams have already been knocked out, with 8 remaining. The 8 winning teams of round 1, now face off against each other in round 2.

You should all know the drill by now, but if you don't, take a read below...

Hey guys.

Like last year, 16 of the Carlton board posters participated in a draft game, whereby just like an ordinary draft, each poster had a pick in each round on each AFL player which was on a list before the national and pre season drafts, and on an AFL list after the delisting periods.

Each of these posts has formulated a team, and now we want the Carlton Board to determine which of these teams is the better out of the 16, and to determine who is the best Carlton Board Drafter.

Each team will be put in a poll, just like this one and each poll will knock out one team. The polls will continue until there is one team remaining. I will try and space out the timing of the polls so this board isn't overflowing with them. I have refrained from naming the owners of each team as to not influence the votes. Each poll will close at the end of a 72 hour period. So here we go.

--------

be a good game. hard to pick a winner. B for my mind just

 

[BlueBelle]

Team C for me. Better midfield and forward line

 

[HBF]

Team C for mine. Better midfield.

 

[Carlton Kid]

Hard to see Team B stopping Black, Burgoyne, Dal'Santo and Aker delivering to Fev and Hall. Team C for mine.

That's what i was thinking pretty much. Midfield too strong.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Toss up this one. B has the better defence and I give them a slight edge in the forwards as well (considering the whole 6). As pointed out though, C has the better midfield and Cs forwards will see more clean ball than Bs based on that.

 

[Cruiser23]

Yep, Team C for me also, very good balance in that midfield.

 

[Kramer1]

Was tempted to go B until I got to Kane Johnson and Nathan Jones. No good getting the ball if you can't do anything with it. C it is.

 

[DIG]

Team B has stronger rucks, bench, forwards and defence. B's forwards won't need to get the ball too often against a defence with only one decent defender in Rutten.

Hall has no fitness for CHF, would be like Blues with a one-man forward line in Fev.

I do like team C's midfield, but that's not enough to stop B imo.

I went B
