Keeper Lg. 2017 List Management

If it does give him a clearly poor auto pick, he'll be allocated Jack Scrimshaw being the highest-ranked player in the real AFL draft who is currently undrsfted.

If someone was drafting for him as a proxy that's most likely who they'd select for him anyway. Also how it's been handled in the past.

Does everybody even know the draft started yesterday? I tagged everybody re the trade deadline, but I don't believe all were tagged re start date..

 

[Jordie_tackles]

Thought it was pretty clearly muted as starting this weekend

 

[Rockford]

I guess at the very least richcogs is aware of the deadline, as he liked the post I tagged him in yesterday afternoon to advise the 3pm deadline. Saying that, just over a days notice really isn't a long period of time when one is busy with other things, so I don't know if the 3pm deadline today is fair to all.. I understand that there are arguments to say it is fair (it has been 3 months since the AFL drafts etc), but that is just my opinion.

I guess we wait and see what happens, hopefully it is a moot point

He should be aware of it based on the above.

 

[tenderwarrior]

That was re trade deadline. Not draft start date

 

[Rockford]

Draft start date had already been announced at that point. And you get an email from UF.

Unknown caller said we are aiming for Saturday on Tuesday, and that is why the delisting deadline is when it was, richcogs liked hit post after this was announced

 

[tenderwarrior]

Well somebody will need to manually change Richcogs pick before Jimmy or somebody selects Scrimshaw, as the auto pick has gone through!

Update on the selection has been done. Richcogs now has Scrimshaw.

How do we determine the player if it happend again. I think next time he just gets what his auto pick does.

The next time it happens the selection would be Logue.

haha.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. I will give you odds of 49%

If it times out it'll most likely select Bird (unless Daysy_12 has done his rankings). In that case we'd substitute Bird for the highest ranked available draftee from the real draft who, with Scrimshaw now off the board, would be Logue at pick 8 for Freo.

Zim^zuM was referring to richcogs and Pick 22

 

[Rockford]

Haha, ah, now I follow

 

[Jordie_tackles]

I am preparing myself for the full 12 hour timeout TBH

Hopefully not, Daysy_12 has been pretty good in seasons gone by. He may be busy or on his way to the North v Hawks game. I'm not too phased about waiting the 12 hours, it's more Logue as his autoselection replacement (assuming he hasn't set rankings) isn't in the conversation with the best available from a fantasy perspective, whereas at least Scrimshaw was.

I wouldn't say Scrimshaw was the best available , but I guess you could say he was in the conversation if you were having a long chat about it - I wouldn't be surprised to see Logue transform into more of a midfielder, in which case he could be fantastic - not that you would select him based on that hope alone.

 

[Zim^zuM]

MY take for the first round is fair enough to modify and auto pick. Round 2 and beyond is just bad luck. There would have been plenty of time to set rankings after that.

the way things are going, plenty of time will be an understatement

I think it depends who you're looking for. If you're after defenders then Scrimshaw is most likely the best prospect at this stage. I know that one of the managers before him were contemplating taking Scrimshaw.

 

[Zim^zuM]

so was I

 

[Rockford]

Haha, you're the one I knew about

 

[Jordie_tackles]

Logue isn't that far behind pick 10 or in the scheme of things imo

Some would rate him there and I have him on my draft board. To me he projects as a Pavlich type player. Could go through the middle, could play as a CHF. Pavlich started as a back too and I think the Freo hierarchy knew what they were looking for when they picked him. Question as to how Ross Lyon will develop him though, I rate the player higher than I rate Lyon's ability to develop young talent.
