I have a lot of names for you right now..... :veryupset :frustration

But I know.....

a) I'll make a ass out of myself sharing them
b) I respect your brains and like you
c) I am being selfish as I can't get him in my bench
d) sponsor him in name on PRE and financially through a coterie so I'm being possessive ;D

Oh....and more to the point...

I'm relieved no one has picked my number 1 option yet. :upside

are you before me - I reckon we want the same bloke.

you better not.
 
I am going to take Kyle Reimers - ESS.

I rate him highly, across so many stats been a great Rising Star and had my eye on him keenly since I took Jack, I just took Jack for structural need more than anything (needed a shutdown/hard as a cat's head energetic back pocket). Overall Reimers will be a better player.
 
Ok - going against who I wanted here, but this player just shouldn't be left.

not sure I really need him either with B. mcLean in my team.

But his name is to big and noticeable in a game like this. I will pick my want next pick


I choose J. Carr

It was between him and Jamison for me. I hate the guy but he can play.

A close call then! :) :phew

I rate him highly, he was one I always wanted but thought he'd get right through.

Was actually considering him before Watts but to me I needed more depth in that area.

He is a gun, and I love his attitude. Reckon he will be a beauty, great pick.

Two of my favorites have been taken before I thought they would be.

Travis Boak and Kyle Reimers.

A bit too young perhaps

re Kyle Reimers

I am going to leave that one right alone.... :hihi

I will merely say as the spokesman for my club....

"We are delighted to still find Kyle Reimers available at this pick, we rated him much higher...yadda, yadda, yadda...(you've all heard it before >:D )

re Kyle Reimers

I said I love his attitude on the footy field checkers..... :hihi

I'll leave his off field antics to him. ;D
 
Power, Sam.

Averaged 18 touches a week last year along with 3 tackles. Came of age and looks like he may get better again this year. Really good get.

Must admit he flew under my radar, they are impressive stats, though I will say...he has always had trouble putting his seasons back to back. Which is why I didn't investigate him.

First time he has had major game time and played 22 of 23 games. Laidley used him as a run with type but he is also pretty creative on the rebound. Will be coming into his prime this year.
