[matt_bas]

With initials like that, you're underestimating XO's flavour. He's definitely a bit spicy and a little exotic!

Now I'm definitely off him. Wtf is that.

 

[squashface]

I was going to bid on a Briggs but to be honest, it's not really a position of need.
To keep the game moving -

Brisbane pick 36 is Jacob Kennerley
Outside midfielder who can run all day and has nice skills.

Plays like - Gaff

Full right up for all picks on the weekend.

squashface - Come on down!

This guy was next on my list, good pick.

Won’t be long with my selection.

Pick 37 Fremantle: Luke Foley

After missing out on last year's draft, Foley has increased his output and influence with the ball to be considered the fourth or fifth rated West Australian in the draft. In 2018 he averaged 17.3 disposals, 7.7 tackles, 4.7 clearances and 4.3 inside 50s. He is seen as a consistent inside midfielder and should help Fremantle to replace Lachie Neale.

The Stid Essendon is up!

187 CM / 81 KG Inside Mid

Write up to come.

I wonder if Luke Foley will slide after his recent controversy.

Googling only ‘Luke Foley’ to find his stats proved to be a mistake on my behalf let’s just put it that way

It was a smart move to grab him before he grabbed you.

Gets enough touches, effectiveness is questionable though

What happened? Does it involve a tent?

Sounds like there may have been a tent at the front of his pants.

(It wasn't actually him, it was the NSW Opposition Leader of the same name).

Brisbane pick 39 - Marlon Pickett
I really wanted a good HBF and I got one in Pickett...Just picked him over Greaves.
He's plug and play, ready to take over from Hodge.

Quick with good skills and a hard tackler.
Will lead by example, very happy to land him.

WCE_phil - Time to bring the music.

* Not sold on Tom Berry

 

[WCE_phil]

Im out and about sorry gents. Once i get home i'll get it sorted.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

How dare you have other things to do on a Friday night

 

[WCE_phil]

St Kilda select Jack Ross.

My write ups to come at end of draft. An inside mid is not necessarily what the Saints need but I really like the look of Ross. Late in the year played some great football and has power at the contest that caught my eye.

 

[new breed]

Its Obeanie1 time !!

Obeanie1

 

[ArdentEagle]

This much delay from Obeanie1 can only mean one thing.
A 10 stage pick swap proposal is coming up.

We can do pick swaps?

It is quite uncanny you chose this as TBH I work with numbers and statistics a lot.

I also tend to look outside the box a fair bit and look at alternatives rather than than the obvious solution.

Pick 41 Richmind select Will Hamill

Thinking being a utility / half back who can look to add depth for the likes of Houli and Griggs who are not getti g any younger.

Position: Utility

Size: 185cm, 70kg

Bio: Hamill has the capabilities to play anywhere on the ground, but looks most suited to playing as a defender. In defensive 50, he has the capabilities to break the lines and rebound the ball at speed. Hamill is a decent kick of the football and can mark well overhead. Was part of the Dandenong Stingrays’ TAC Cup premiership.

Combine Result
Half-back Will Hamill has been renowned for his pace and came third in the sprint, but also ranked highly in the agility, vertical jump and YoYo, showing he has a good pace and endurance mix.



Versatile medium defender who can also play on the wing and up forward. Strong overhead and can break the lines with his speed and uses the ball well on his preferred left foot. Averaging 16 disposals per game for Dandenong in nine games this year and represented Vic Country in two matches in this season’s NAB AFL Under-18 Championships.

Another reason to have another later pick. Eagles need a half back. Nice size, pace, agility and can mark and kick.

Falco your up.

St Kilda select Jack Ross.

Just how many Jacks can St Kilda pick?

I like it...I'm a numbers man too, I also think outside the box a bit but that's due to a misspent youth for which I'm still feeling the repercussions.
