Hot Topic Essendon Board Draft Game

So being the silly season is now officially on us I thought why not get one of these up and going.

The premise is relatively simple any player you pick must be on an AFL list for the 2019 season however you get that player at their peak. So the obvious example here is Garry Ablett Junior, should you pick him you don't get the injury riddled still good but not great player he is now. You get the peak of his powers brownlow winning superstar.

Registation is open until next Monday morning at 9am when the draft will start. You get 8 hours to pick your player with a time limit black out from 10pm to 6am, all times are Bendigo time. :D

For those that don't know what a time limit black out is if I made my pick at 8pm the next person would have untill 12pm the next day not 4am. (I think I've worked that correctly).

Players.
1) Boncer34
2) Harro92
3) Stopher
4) BrewerSmackViney
5) Mercuri Rising
6) Pweter
7) Orasia Fantazio
8) IsDONisGood333
9) Akiva

I'll have a go, I always have a read through these kind of things but never have a crack!

Why?

Isn't building a list inclusive of taking guys at their relative stages?
