21st Century draft - full 22 edition

[Guardian Hawk]

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Sphynx is up.

 

[ArdentEagle]

Good thing you didn’t pick up Harley Reid

He just had 29 possies and 10 clearances while being targeted all day.

Kid goes alright for his first year

 

[Purple7x08_24]

Captain/Coach?

Will be my captain

 

[Lingsface]

He just had 29 possies and 10 clearances while being targeted all day.

And the guy he was playing on had 36 a goal and 14 score involvements.

 

[Lingsface]

Ooh, good pick. I was thinking about him for one of my next picks.

So you're saying I kill you eventually?

Tippett is extremely underrated tbh. Averaged a touch under 2 goals/game and 10 hitouts a game mostly playing as a combination of forward and ruck.

Yeah he was a handy player just winding you up.

 

[Purple7x08_24]

I'm curious. Would this work for cricket. I'd love to do a draft for that.

I imagine it would, though I stopped following cricket back in 2005 when the ACB pushed Steve Waugh out

Have done it many times

 

[RUNVS]

Also I have 3 players who I am thinking of for my next 2 selections, though my next 2 selections are not for ages so I am just hoping they are around then

I am however pretty happy with how my team is shaping up.

 

[Purple7x08_24]

Have done it many times

Yeah I just did a quick google search and found it. Your first pick would be mine in Warnie.

I wasn't sure about the whole historical thing. I'd prefer to have it capped from 70s or something.

Its getting to the point whee nominations might be personal. I'm wondering if anyone would have snapped up Adam Simpson.

I feel like there will be a ton like that. I've still got a few interesting picks to come that people have probably forgotten about.

To be honest I think people who know the B grade players of other teams best are likely to make a killing here. People who rely too much on the players of their own team are going to be at a disadvantage.

Was definitely in consideration

Good pick. I imagine if it's capped at 70s. Bradman if not. Viv 3.

 

[eth-dog]

Sobers or Kallis 1. Both are legitimate stars with the bat or ball. Plus no Bradman rule is generally the go.

 

[Guardian Hawk]

He was legit one of my wingers for speed. I definitely had him for next round.

Yep, me too.

Sure he did... Fyfe was his direct opponent most of the day mate.
Serong and Brayshaw really got the better of Teo, Kelly and Culley, especially half way through the 3rd onwards.

 

[ArdentEagle]

I left a few players with Purple

 

[whatwhatsaywhat]

i was tempted to fill out my flanks, but i worry that one of the toughest, most relentless, focussed and determined inside mids i've ever seen would be off the board by the time my next pick comes around, so i'm going to plump for him here and select jack viney to maintain my brutal, relentless, physical attack around the centre contests

alongside lewis and hodge, alternating at half-back and ruck-rover, viney gives great defensive mid coverage as well as a sheer force of will to win the contest

i maintain that if he'd played in a good side for the course of his career, as opposed to a good side for the last three years, and had a better run with injury he'd be regarded as one of the best rovers the dees have ever had

Team update, been a few days and qualification of a few picks:

Sheezel - Why not get one of the best teenagers to ever player the game, a 19 year old currently averaging peak Steve Johnson and Robbie Gray

Byron - Fantastic footballer both forward and back, people forget how good he was as a HFF in his first 2 seasons at North also. Just a ridiculous highlight reel.

Yeo - If you are going to an Olympus type battle with the best of the best, I want someone who I consider to be one of the best two way defensive mids of the last 20 years. Just an absolute beast inside and someone that can also nullify the oppositions best with his defensive work around the stoppage.
