Draft day

Adelaide gone early on Tom Doedee - ex basketballer, stunned the commentators on SEN for picking him so early.
 
What's our next pick number?
Bit confusing with all the clubs bidding on academy kids.
 
What's up with North's T-shirts. And the Hawks seem to go out of their way to hide brown and yellow.
 
great way to disguise concession picks for the new clubs. GWS pick 3 first rounders.

Obvious. As long as they have enough picks on their list to use later.

The AFL is a flipping farce. Richmond is effectively made to pay for unprofitable clubs to take draft picks and premierships from them.
 
Roili must be thrilled took us 3 go's before coming to us.
The bidding system sucks dogs balls.
Where's our academy??

Not only do they get them they get a 20% reduction. It's crap

I concur, its crap, why do we always see the need to follow some convoluted borrowed system from the yanks is beyond me. And after reading Emma Quayle's idiots guide , well I must be an idiot.
 
Our next pick is 48, mainly due to Sydney having to use multiple picks to get Mills.

I don't mind the system, I just wish teams like Essendon did their homework on the Academy players to make GWS use more points to get their boys.
 
The AFL is working beautifully - no introductions for 3 players! *And the audio's not working properly either :rofl
