The Official Buddy Draft 2008

🥰 Love BigFooty? Join now for free.

I've made an adjustment to the draft order list. Dockers_bengals and Gaspode have let me know that D_B will have limited access to BF for awhile, and that Gaspode will be selecting for him at #35. They have volunteered to double up and so when Gaspode picks for D_B, he'll be adding his name to the same buddy. I hope no-one has an issue with this as it is "departing from the rules" a bit... but it seemed like a fair thing to me so I have just gone ahead and changed it on the selection thread. :)
 
Well knock me down with a feather. Who would've guessed NF would take Brock. ;)

I hope with the luck of gaspode that my new buddy wont suffer the same fate as Schammer did last year being out most of the year. I'm also surprised he lasted so long

As he said ^^^^^^^^ though as my first draft buddy ever, I'm looking forward to having my buddy over for tea :)
 
Thought I'd put down my reasons for choosing Crowley.

He's always been a favourite and I love his on field arrogance especially against West Coast when he specially acknowledges the Hungry Jack's cheer squad.

He was in blistering form before the knee injury against Ireland and didn't have as much of an impact as I'm sure he'd have liked last year. By all accounts he's training strongly and should come out firing in 2008.

So heres to a good year from Crowley

So does that mean that we now have a place left open for someone to join ( Yellow Mit), whom I think missed out in registering for whatever reason, he/she is a regular poster and if a place has opened up I reckon that it would be a quick and easy process to put them on ther list.
 
Fine by me. :)

Although technically a spot hasn't actually opened up - it's just that they chose to double up on their pick immediately, rather than pick individually.

It means that there will be 18 double ups, rather than 17. No worries.
 
come on poeples... let's get this all done and dusted!

Dunn
Pratt
Duff
Connelly

these guys all need a buddy - they are still on the shelf!


Anyone? Anyone? Anyone?

Nice offer NF, but I reckon we'll be okay. You'll have your hands full with Brock (even sharing him with Big Kev), so you better be careful in offering yourself around... ;)


I've had a few PMs from people wanting to join up, so we'll let them get themselves a buddy, then in a day or two, if there's anyone left, I'll just assign the guys who are yet to make their AFL debut to those that haven't picked... It'll be sorted, no worries... :thumbsu: :D ;)
 
I would like a buddy, but after reading through the thread I am confused as to who is left and who's turn it is. So I will be happy to take whoever is offered as a double up, or maybe if someone could let me know the options left, otherwise I will reside to the fct that I will be buddiliess for 2008.

The two guys in bold (Pratt and Connelly) have no buddy at all. The others have all been selected and you would be doubling up.

Go for it. :thumbsu:



After frigate is done I'll allocate the rest of the buddies and we're all done. At last... ;)
 
At risk of abuse, but maybe those who haven't had the respect to you IP to actually appear and participate should just miss out. We don't really need to have more doubles just to accommodate those who are MIA.

How hard is it to make selections or give IP a list of choices or her choice if you're going away?
 
I will take 13. the Prattster. :thumbsu:

Done. :thumbsu:

Fair call. I'm going to give Connelly to Shaymuhz cos he's a semi-regular; and Yello Mit an have Ryley Dunn cos he was the very last player added to our list across all drafts in 2007.... but anyone else who may have missed out will have to send me a PM followed by a cheque. ;)


The 2008 Buddy Draft is now complete! :thumbsu:
 
Now that the draft is over it's time to stop fooling ourselves...






Chris Smith > Byron Schammer > Brock O'Brien
