Err, about next Tuesday. If I were you, I'd forget the coverage as they won't be discussing out picks at all. They only discuss the top 10-20 and then start talking s**t for the rest of the night. They don't even cover the later picks outside of a scrolling message down the bottom.
You can't be talking about Macca and Co ....surely not....lol

Question for anyone out there - has anyone seen training and particularly The Cannon. Does the Cannon still function > 50 metres or have the injuries taken their toll?
 
I don't have a colour coded chart of players to tick off as the night progresses. That's it, I can't Draft night like this. This is uncivilized.

I still love you Draft night!
 
I was hoping we were finally over the Daniel Flynn failed experiment and went back to the international well for some 203+cm American as a Cat B rookie that we could throw into the sanfl for development.

Having pored over many 3 minute clips and read lots of phantom drafts there are a range of players I would be happy to see us pick from:

Butts
Walker
Starcevich
Kreuger
CCJ
Domic
Narrier
Worpel
Wooller
Baker
Moore
Farrell
Meek
Houlahan
Ross
Ryan
Day
Martini
Jones
Banfield

I'm sure I have forgotten some and will learn to love those outside my list.

Surprise me Geoff! Good luck! :D
I'll have a Meek Martini with some Krueger Butts on the side.
 
This is agonising
 
When are we going to copy the Yanks and hear the crowd boo the CEO when they come on the stage

Pick 19 – Gold Coast – Charlie Ballard ------------------------------------- Took Will Powell

Start of Rd 2

So in his top 30 picks
8 players were taken in the right slot
3 players were taken by the same club but a different slot
9 others players taken at a different pick.
------
20 players

So of Cal's top 21 draft picks players 18 were drafted by pick 21. 2 players between 22 and 30 were drafted in the top 21.

That's a pretty decent strike rate.
