Just waiting on a VC/C from Theseventhhamster and Dory_77

This could set him apart in the nuffy contest.

Can I name Brad Green as captain from someone else's team?

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

I should have grabbed Fev instead of Curnow, my one real regret.

Was discussing with TK this morning, I think it was more of an advantage to be drafting 10-14 with an early pick in the second round. Im pretty sure my first two picks would have been Brown and Richo. Shattered hamster grabbed Richo a couple of spots before my pick in the second.

Almost had both, ended up not selecting either but very, very happy with Lloyd and Tredrea.

My spine is absolutely ****ing shocking lmao.

Maybe looks better to some people with Hogan at FF and Ballantyne in the pocket/Ben Brown

on the bench, but not me.
Hogan's lucky I think, still catch him doing the look at the umpires and sook, infuriating.

 

[Dory_77]

I'll have Glass as Captain and Ricciutto as VC pls

Lions are an excellent club to win the nuffy award for, so many champions available.

No shade intended Les or anyone else in that range, just saying they would have been my guys. Didn't strokes for different folks.

Sorry, A11 - already writing up an essay about why Lloyd and Tredrea were the correct picks.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Have people overlooked players just cause they didn't like them even though they were great? My irrational hate of Lloyd and Nick Riewoldt in no way reflects that they weren't great players. I'm just weird like that, had quite a few "no I won't be drafting him even though he's good" on my list

I reckon I went the other way - like I judged players I really liked harder almost.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Riewoldt, Lloyd and Tredrea were absolutely better than Richo but I liked Richo more coz of the entertainment of missing easy goals, taking hangers, kicking the impossible and the hissy fits he would throw at his teammates.

There were a couple of times where Jack Riewoldt absolutely seemed like the right pick. schmuttt taking him was a weight lifted off my shoulders.

I've also noticed a certain coleman medalist has been completely ignored.

Maybe Tex with the O'Loughlin pick, but I also wanted a more mobile second tall to go with Hawkins, so it was a bit of both.

Giving away a free and fifty when he thought he won the game v. Essendon was an all-timer.

Reckon O'Loughlin was the better call there regardless.

I took Rance despite hating him, I think there is a place where value and team need tips the scale over if you hated hem when assessing other options at that position.

Steam coming out of his ears for the rest of the game mumbling to himself. The one with first year David Rodan in the goal square was good for a laugh. Plenty of other times he used to yell at teammates for not kicking him the ball on the lead.

Two Coleman medalists I reckon. Also Chad Warner was picked for a moment in time about 6 rounds ago, immediately dumped and then ignored since. All Australian and future Dee Dan Houston still on the bench too. Can probably think of a couple more before it's my turn I reckon

Mascot-level pick

Isaac Smith, Charlie Cameron, The Scott Brothers, David King, Nick Dal Santo, Robert Murphy, Daniel Chick, Tom Papley, Taylor Walker, probably a few others I missed.

Wow, I didn't realise you had such a strong opinion of Scott Cummings

Toump made a good point about his face, **** Warner, current day campaigner.
