Official 2007 Buddy Draft

no probs... enjoy your journey! I am very envious... :o




inferno's choice doesn;t affect ThePope at all - His Holiness has till 12.45 tomorrow (should be able to get mass and a spot of lunch before his time is up....;) ).


:)
 
Well I guess I'll take Saint Peter of the Bells... isn't going to be nice to have a captain and a spiritual leader/ex-captain who are both happy to be in those positions!

So safe to pick him then?? He won't come after me for believing you? Although you did mention in a PM that you knew Rumble would go before your pick...

Capt Pump - Darren Rumble?? Yes??

:)
 
No worries - done. :thumbsu: First rookie - and in the Top 20 also. :eek: We'll expect a few progress report from your bro to keep us informed of how Rumbler is going!



TP3_Freo's first choice has been snapped up, but next choice is there... Heath Black! :thumbsu:


Dugrene has till 3.40 tomorrow (Monday)... :)
 
IP, considering our lack of posting last year regarding our buddy draft players how about we implement a rule that promotes a bit of thread starting.

ie;
If your buddy plays 2 senior games or more you must begin at least one thread, otherwise inactivity on your behalf will result in him being passed onto the rookie listed Big Footy posters.

It's just an idea, do with it as you will......
 
great idea... there are some who grabbed their buddies and ran last year... never to be heard from again.

But I bags not being the one to police it... :eek:

;)


But I do agree - if you grabbed a spot and have a buddy at the expense of others, you really should post occasionally, talk him up, report anything relevant... all the "buddy stuff"- you can't just ignore him... he's your responsibility on these boards ;). :thumbsu:

BTW - this is not just my thing... it belongs to all of us. :)

If it's ok IP, can I take my pick now?

I have a feeling bushie won't make the deadline.

If yes, I pick Dean Solomon.
 
IP I'll get in early for mine.

Whoever is left cheers:)

yeah well to be fair, we have to give bushie till tomorrow morning...

But I do think you're right... poor bushie probably won't make the deadline... even after he "sucked up" (his words), got the first spot on the rookie list and was dead keen to get himself a buddy... he's probably way out bush somewhere, away from technology... then he'll get back and see he had his chance on the main list, but then somehow went from #1 on the rookie list to #5.... :(

But Sollie is yours at 9am tomorrow if bushie doesn't get here...


and duly noted funky...



Also - how about some suggestions of what we have to do as "official buddies"... surfsup has got me thinking.... does anyone else have any grey matter at work, or is the Ashes too absorbing that there's no room left for any other thought?? Come on - what are our buddy responsibilities for '07, after we eased ourselves into it in '06??
 
Apart from reporting on their buddies game each week Their isn't much else we can do and its a bit hard to say anything on the rookies or injured players.Maybe we can predict their next game stats,impact etc..schammer 22 disp 3clear 4mark 1 goal 4 tack

I.P. can you put whos picking and thier times because I know purple_ daze and hes next I think.
Got it now
 
Bushie did say he was off in his cockpit and wouldnt be back for a while. So it's my go:)

With MJ still available, he's mine ! I think I've got a future Captain as my buddy. I dont expect too many problems talking him up in '07. If he has a couple lean quarters I'll be making sure we all know how good he is.

He wont be a gun. He'll be a whole bloody battalion :cool:
 
purple daze is next - he's got till 10.20pm tomorrow.

then surfsup...

and either bushie or yello mit will slot in somewhere soon too....

If we have Non-Performers then obviously the rookies can have first crack at them, but what do we do if we have more NP's than rookies? Can you stick up your hand for another? Maybe even nominate someone that is already taken who you wouldn't mind, that way if someone knows that their buddy is a wanted man it might put the pressure on you to perform, otherwise you might find yourself losing your buddy.

Thanks DBT and IP, very happy with my buddy. I think this post a month back clearly signalled my intentions for The Rumbler.

Sadly for Sir Robbie, I expect The Rumbler to be promoted to the senior list pretty early in the piece. Expect updates...oh yes.

"Rumble by name, Rumble by nature"
