Live comments regarding the PSD

[rgauci]

Thought it would be interesting to have a thread where we can post immediate reactions regarding the PSD and rookie draft while it happens.

I'm guessing Freo's first pick to be Alex Howson, followed by Matt Taberner.

Good on Bret Thornton getting a gig at GWS, and thrilled for Sam Colquhoun to get a guaranteed gig early on - There'll be a lot of outside players from this draft that aren't nearly the kind of ball user he is.

 

[The Smaller Warrior]

Stoked to get Colqy

 

[mrpez]

Damn you Freo, Hannath was meant for us

 

[HFF]

Tippett officially a Sydney Swan.

 

[rgauci]

Don't know much about Hannath at all

 

[Andronicus]

Is there a chance someone can post a full list of who has been chosen? Trying to find one on my phone.

Is the AFL website seriously down?

 

[Sin City]

Draft tracker has pooped itself, new AFL website sucks

The Draft Tracker looks shot. Twomey is still updating.

Mature age ruckman from SANFL. He is training with us in Darwin at the moment. Awkward...

I'm having trouble accessing it too so it must be.

This is why they get the big bucks....

I can't find anything about this draft.

lol; leaders in technology

 

[Pessimistic]

Bloody finey on SEN prattling one and on about Kurt tippet - does anyone not already know that story ?

 

[The_Answer3]

The whole doing the draft via teleconference shows how the AFL treat this. Nothing on the website, tracker down, no decent coverage.....fail

To be fair it's the only player he'll know for the entire day

 

[Donners]

Damn, I was hoping someone would swoop in and take Tippett.

 

[Underdog]

Haha Kane Mitchell - sucks to be you Port

Now that there's Free Agency, it's pretty much obsolete.
