Bloody hell....IanG was on only 20 minutes ago - what with DD sitting on Maddy's selections, and Phanto hovering still, we coulda really given this a kick alone! so good to cya IanG mate! ;D

 

[checkside]

Hmmm you're making it tough for me Checkers...I'm going to take that as a Kelly for Tannerz. ;D

Wow, that turnt out bad. This is what happens when you get no sleep.

Luckily I just woke up so can type now.

Andrew Walker from Carlton. I need some run off half back and he's just about the only one left.

 

[checkside]

How many times do I have to tell you? I'm not going to tell you other peoples picks, client confidentiality and all that.

Besides, you did a good job last round of jumping in early, what are you whinging about again!

 

[U2Tigers]

Can I just try to update myself -

Does Scoop still have a catch up pick - due to taking Brown.

Does he know he needs to take a catch up pick?

Amon Buchanan

He did a drive by on us, he's on and off too quick for anyone to tell him everything.

He should know...his been told on the main thread Brown's gone and his pick is not filed in on the master list.

Think he bounded off skipping in the delerious belief he'd just picked a premiership hardman backman at Pick 200 and something, without realising he's already been picked rounds and rounds ago by an astute Tannerz. If DD was doing his job properly......... >

Phar Ace points Phanto to a group of shovels in one corner and says "Take your pick will ya!" I gotta drive to Brisbane.................. ;D

Oh there he is..........Mr Buchanan, splendid pick that!

Just your pick thanks, stop holding everyone up. >

 

[Phar Ace]

He might be getting on a bit but still picking up his 400 plus possies per season, but without the Captaincy he'll get a new lease of life - no not Kane Johnson, even better, Adam Simpson

 

[Scoop]

Mulligan.

Chris Masten West Coast.

 

[Dyer Disciple]

You have two picks Scoop, Cam Brown was already taken.

 

[Scoop]

Pearce Danyle.

 

[Dyer Disciple]

Nice picks at this point Scoop, especially Masten. I think that kid is going to be something special in the midfield.

 

[U2Tigers]

I've changed my mind - was going a different type of player but.

I'm a huge Van Berlo fan as Pharace stated before.

however I rate this bloke better -

the Crows I am envious about - They have Knights, Van Berlo, Vince, little Mackay coming through.

already have Goodwin and Thomson and a few others. The Crows have a very good midfiels.

But If injury didn't ruin his last 2 years i reckon this player would be ahead of all of the names I mentioned first - including Knights and Van Berlo.

I pick Brent Reilly

( hoping my pick i had for this one lasts to my next pick)

 

[Scoop]

Agree on Masten. I think Cotchin took a lot of the hype but Masten was super impressive early doors. From all reports he is flying on the track and looks just about ready to become elite.

I am going to go with Paul Wheatly from Melbourne.

Amazing how much this guy gets overlooked. Like TOT I was looking for a half back flank and was ooing and ahhing about walker and one other but this guy ws on top so i am happy.

Averaged 24 possessions, 6 marks and 2 tackles a game this year, came 13th in the league for kicks a game (and he uses it, always finished high in the long kicks to advantage)...he is a half back flanker who at 27 gets better every year to the point he racked up most of his bests this year. (Cracked 30+ possessions multiple times with his highest 36).

Bargained on people not rating/noticing him...his long kicking from half back to advantage will be very nice.

great pick up - he was very good in a poor side - he will always get a heap of the ball in that side - and he uses it well, shame about some of his teammates.
