Hindsight is a remarkably accurate tool. Your vision is clearer and you never make mistakes. Pity it is useless, unless someone out there has a time machine.In hindsight, I should have picked Hrovat instead of Thurlow.

No worries. I wasn't sure of the cutoff date, so I did have 2 January guys on the list I sent. If they aren't elligible, so be it.# 69 - Carlton (Beowulf)
Michael Close - North Ballarat / 194cm / Key Fwd
* Beowulf took this selection bc the kid you gave me as first preference isnt eligible. '95 babies are a no go my friend. Let me know if I have it wrong but not to matter nobody has him so you will be clear on him if I have it wrong.

Snoop Dog, Khan Haretuku is 198cm, at least.
Nichevo. Hopefully you smiled, looked towards your unused time machine and thought... "Naaaah! Not worth the effort!"Thanks for that lecture on hindsight, not sure what I would have done without it.
# 66 Port Adelaide (Toadvine)
Khan Haretuku - Frankston Dolphins / Key Fwd / 191cm'ish?
*Toadvine will send write up thru in due course
# 61 - Sydney (raymann)
Jordan Bourke - Morningside / 193 / 83
Also a former St Kilda NSW scholarship prospect, rookie listed for one year then cut by Ross Lyon who didn't believe he'd make AFL grade. 199cm sounds about right.Khan is a ready-made CHF who plays for the lowly Frankston Dolphins. He is around 197cm at my guess (just checked 199cm on the VFL site) and does extremely well considering the Dolphins starved forward 50, kicking 30 odd goals so far this season.
A hard worker who leads well and has shown he can kick goals in clutch situations, He has also displayed some ability to go in the Ruck. Still has some work to do in terms of body positioning and over head ability but at 22 he best footy is well and truly in front of him.
# 63 Gold Coast Suns (Offsider)
Offsider wasnt on for a few hours so in order to keep rolling we have taken Chris25 next available. If Offsider comes on soon then we can change if he wants someone else.
Todd McKay (176cm midfielder - South Adelaide)
The forgotten man from SA. He played as an underaged kid in the Championships last year, and he performed well. And he took that form back into the SANFL with him, making his league debut and playing in some finals. This year, McKay played the first five games in the South Adelaide league side and was arguably their best clearance player. But in the 6th game, he hurt his knee and is still on the sidelines. He is a nice kick and runs hard, although it is his contested game that is the highlight. "Chris25 writeup"

I had the same 2 players as you in reverse order.I like Warrell and he was the other I was considering with my pick. He is another inconsistent performer as well though.

I'm glad Close was still available: the rest of my favourites have been dropping like flies.
The reason I chose Close was his versatility: he is big enough to take some ruck work, while mobile enough to move around the forward line. His skills are OK, but I wouldn't say they stuck out like Whitfield's. He can take a nice cotested mark, even pack marks sometimes. He usually plays in front, which I also like as a forward.Michael Close
Nice selection. I had him on my list for the Swans. Played very well in his only VC game v QLD. Would have been the regular CHF for VC if he did not get injured in the QLD game. Good size, nice skills, good contested mark. Can also ruck a bit!
