"2009 Official PRE Draft thread'

T29, Tannerz & Checkers...more so the first two, you guys are on straight after Kurtyzy again, if you are in a position to, it would be greatly appreciated if you could PM your second picks once you do your current ones if you can't check in regularly later. Kurtyzy is locked, loaded and ready to go.

Just in the interest of keeping this moving as efficiently as possible.

Thanks guys.

Kurtzy's picks will be going up at 6.15pm.

To add to it - I think in a game like this to get a big man out the way is a huge worry you no longer have to face - until you need to get the back up - which is very very much later.

would have hated getting to round 5 or 6 and still searching for a ruck.

which brings me to Simmonds lasting thought he was a stael also.

Haha.

Taking Simmonds was an act of desperation. I had a list of acceptable ruckmen and all of a sudden they were all gone except for Simmo. I went looking for someone else and all I could find was Josh Fraser. When Checkers took Fraser with the pick before me, I realised how lucky I had been.

I was a bit like that with Cogz, not a bargain such as yours by any means, but in as much as I was looking for a potentially elite inside midfielder with a strong body and considering the magic injury fix brush is painted over him, I thought he was ripe for my selection.

It wasn't until I got a little PM from someone mentioning him as a aside ( :hihi they know who they are, not anyone playing this) that I reconsidered him stronger. Like Leysy I'm a big believer footy brains and strong bodies are more important in the midfield than athletes/fleet footed players. There are obvious strengths to fast players, and every side needs some, but they are also over rated a little in my opinion and by no means does every midfielder need to be "quick".

I'll be around.
 
Unfortunately it stops as the 4 to 5 other players on Tannerz list have been taken.

I am out of options, but I may recall he was keen on JON.

The bargain of the draft is still out there IMO.

I know of one certainty and a 2 or 3 depending on view points/needs. I don't need any of the types I have in mind as a priority, but am becoming increasingly agitated/tempted as they stay available lol.
 
I've tried to contact TB and left a message for him on his phone ( left it about a hour ago), he's had the option of leaving a list this week each day, knowing he can't come on, so we will keep moving as he is obviously not fussed. He can take his picks at anytime.

Tannerz has till 7.15 then over to Bobby.
