Yeah I'm real disappointed I had to settle for rivers over hunter

I notice the sarcasm, but this wasn't having a dig at your pick, it was defending mine.
Rivers hasn't been able to get out on the park, Hunter has, therefore Hunter has been the better player and back at his peak Hunter is more important to my team structure than Rivers.

 

[Headless]

After we finish all the drafting I think we should do a write-up on our teams, eg who can play where, why the team is good and a general game plan etc.
Is that a good idea?

Agreed, definitely a good idea.

 

[whelan=legend]

Trent Cotchin.

Up and coming superstar of the competition... Personally would have him in my team before Palmer any day of the week.

[CaptainDavey]

I resent that w=l

Max Rooke
Nathan Jones

 

[whelan=legend]

I resent that w=l

It wasn't meant as a jibe at you, i think Cotchin will be a better player in the future, even though Palmer is better now.

My bench seems to be shaping up at the 2007 draft haha.

Edit. Oh shit it's my pick again... let me think about it

 

[whelan=legend]

Grant Birchall

I've got two players I'm thinking of atm, hope goalsneak makes it easier for me and picks one

Was just wondering how it's going to go, I was thinking:
Draft our first 22.
Draft 3 emergencies to each team(the uneven number won't matter as it's unlikely any of them will be in the final 22).
48 hour trading period(where teams can trade players for players, but they must retain a list of 22 or more players, eg. Franklin could be traded for two players as long as the person trading the two players has more than 22 players after adding Franklin to the list).
Teams then cut their lists down to a final 22 players and name them in position.
A write-up of each team is done by the person selecting the team(including where players will play, game plan etc).
Votes are cast for the best team(I'm thinking 6-5-4-3-2-1 and you can't vote for yourself).
And possibly a poll for anyone not participating in this draft as for who the public think has the best team...

Chris Knights

 

[Beats]

Currently on my bench I've got a midfielder, and a HBF who can run through the midfield.
I figure my defence is rock solid at the moment, however it could use a bit of class and pace, due to this I'm going to select Graham Johncock.

FB: Daniel Pratt, Dustin Fletcher, Tom Harley
HB: Craig Bolton, Adam Hunter, Jason Gram
C: Brett Deledio, Brock Mclean, Ryan Griffen
HF: Jason Akermanis, Matthew Richardson, Matthew Stokes

I have 2 players in mind. Really hope nobody takes them and I can grab them both...

 

[00Stinger]

Just to add a great tackler and hard in and under player to the midfield I will go for Jude Bolton

Is the other one Lindsay Thomas?

Nah mate, but was tossing up between those two for a while.

 

[Bails2008]

Will Minson- Need a second ruckman. May not be the best ruckman left but can go forward and kick goals and have Ottens so gives me an option as a third tall forward.

Adam McPhee- Again going for a player that can play multiple roles. Gives me a player who can play forward, back and on the wing. Can be frustrating but at best an All Australian. This is a team balance selection. Was out of him Miller or Brennan and think he is the best of the 3

[Beats]

For my final selection for my starting 22 I'm going to choose a player who I'd love in Melbourne colours, even if it will probably never happen.
He is an excitement machine with pace to burn who mainly plays through the midfield but is also able to spend time up forward.
This year he was a little down, but he has won a rising star among other awards.
Danyle Pearce.
