What do we do now?

Wait for tomorrow lol

Am keen to see what surprises there are tonight though

 

[TBM]

I know we've said we will, but surely there's no need to re-select Schoenberg.

Waste of a list spot with the arrival of Draper, ANB and Peatling, on top of the development of Dowling/Curtin/Edwards/Taylor etc.

 

[GreyCrow]

So, we've officially had a good offseason.

Finals is a minimum pass mark

 

[pjcrows]

Saints pick the "general defender" at Pick 8.

 

[Danger Zone]

Good pick there, rate this kid. Just looks like a Saints player too.

 

[119others]

All went to plan. Now the fun begins.

C4[2]Yo`DooR

And many thanks C4 - mate you nailed it AGAIN (and weren’t a double agent - not that I ever suspected that haha)

A hot flannel would take that mo' clean off.

Could Tauru slip through to Port?

Just the first round tonight?

Pick 9 - Leonardo "Leo" Lombard (Gold Coast)

 

[Danger in Texas]

9 from 9 for Cal, now

 

[FullyBigKPro]

Draper just looks like a future captain doesn't he, expect him to be ultra professional and be a total gun.

God its good to have a gun top 5 elite mid, being an Adelaide boy is just such a bonus.

Twomey nailing it
Was why I was pretty sure we'd take sid

Fox Footy torching Essendon for trading out a pick when their guy didn't get selected ahead of their pick

Pick 9 - Leonardo "Leo" Lombard (Gold Coast)

Steal of the draft. Incredibly well rounded player that I had #1 rated

They get him for three picks in the 40's lol

Essendon's pick (which is now Melbourne's) hasn't come yet lol

 

[whattagun07]

Or that other Melanie slapper?

Mel B or Mel C?

 

[Bayno82]

As people have said only way we can get back in is if we screw over Schoenberg or Burgess which even if ruthless we might not have salary cap space to do it and the pr nightmare

Yep, you hold and then trade it out on draft night - plenty of takers.

Couldn’t work that one out.
Pretty dumb error by a rookie list manager

 

[Danger Zone]

Fox Footy crew don't realise that a team can make two bids in a row. And also that clubs are less likely to bid earlier if it doesn't matter as much.

 

[Crow till I die]

Thank goodness we didn't get cute and look to trade back a couple of spots thinking Draper may have slid - its just been 5 best mids (as per the phantom drafts) went in the first 5 picks.

 

[Scorpus]

Leonardo drops an F bomb

 

[Eddie Murphy]

Bit unfair. Saints bidding on Kako wouldn’t be a reach, and they may have very well done it to screw Essendon over had they held onto the pick.
