Good get, to sit in the goal square.

If you needed a full forward or where desperate for a ruck by now he's a ok, otherwise a little early. Still very raw for mine. I had him on my list for later as a consideration, I like him and was a big fan of him in his draft.

Who is this 'Edcock' you're referring to? Is he any good?

Tiger dog mate, you're too intelligent to get into a conversation with Pharace, he'll suck double digit IQ points of you with every reply, I'm learning very slowly it's best to nod your head at him and smile and say "Ok". He wanders away eventually and lectures street poles.

Do those street poles wear orange, bang drums and sing a song by a former beatle?

That officially exhausts Cpt's priority list, won't get past him now until he comes back on. I'll Pm him to kill you Ian get another list to me........

Just looking at the order list now, looks like tomorrow could be another fast one if we get a list from Capo in time.

Just mentioning so people know their picks could be up quick, once 11am comes (Tigermad has till then) we should be able to fly 3/4 way through the round at least very quickly.

Those who might have trouble checking in tomorrow might want to strongly consider sending a preference list so they don't miss out.
 
Much belatedly I will take

Carrazzo, Andrew (really good to see such is the hate of the old enemy that a guy who is 9th in the AFL for possession gets picked in the 140s)
 
Excellent gets at those picks. I've been aware of Carrazzo but couldn't justify him over the midfielders I have.

Ellis ya beat me to. :hihi
 
So that brings us back on track and up to date. No outstanding picks.

IanG has until 11am to post his next pick.

People in glass houses................. ;D.

I pick Stevie Baker from the Aints. Past time for a run with player.
 
Xavier Ellis is an excellent pick, and was on my list as my 2nd HBF'er.

As it is my pick, fortunately, my 1st HBF'er is still available.

Jared Brennan (BL)

That's a hard one...I'm a big fan of both, but Brennan is awfully inconsistent. Think I'd rather Ellis, though when Brennan pulls his finger out he's better.

I have Pharace's pick, just giving him an opportunity to post it himself/change his mind...

Yes, Ellis reads the game extremely well and his marking & kicking is excellent.

Brennan's best is still better than Ellis, although Brennan has been playing for longer.

My thinking with Ellis is that if you graph his rate of improvement it's going through the roof.  Also you have to love a player who plays the best game of his short career in the GF.

Sad that in real life he has a nasty hip injury.
