Draft Night

[Sintiger]

They only do the first round on night one so you should be right.

Probably 27 picks ….5-6 hours ??

 

[The_General]

I'll be at the club thingy.

 

[Bill Haverchuck]

Will be in Hawaii so most likely be asleep and miss it

 

[caesar]

Does anyone know if there are drinks on at the club? Reckon I’ll need a few to get through the long dry periods between picks

Of course the bar will be open.

Nup, its an international standards meeting. Bunch of old men arguing about words.

Ive contemplated flying back to melb for the night

Do it... do it...!!!

Should run a telethon in conjunction with it if that's the case - "Davo from Dandenong pledges 5 bucks if Collingwood takes player X with their next pick...."

Norf would be keen on that

 

[Steely Danzig]

The telethon would be for them.

 

[turk-d-tiger]

Going to the zoo.

Seriously will join the nuffies at the club including some of PRE's finest.

say hi to lids

 

[Tigga94]

Most likely about 3 hours after start time

They’ll have to welcome every draftee to country

Watching it at the club. Most of the events I’ve been to at the MRC have involved us losing inter-state games, whereas this is a night we can’t possibly lose, right?

I’ll be sitting on the back porch of my new old home, mortgage free at last (at 65) pouring over every comment and rude thing mentioned on PRE and watching my Jack Russell trying to dig under the back fence. Don’t let me down fellas. My drinking game on these occasions is to have another sip of Stella every time I hear the words “Just waiting on the decision by (sic)….”

I hope you’ve got a fair bit on ice mate. You’ll need to be comfy by the end of the first round you’ll be speaking Belgian.

We can’t lose on the night - or at least we won’t know on the night
But give it time ……

Hope you have a big fridge

Just make sure you aren't using "surprised he was available at that pick" or its close cousin "we rated him much higher in the draft". You'll end up in hospital with alcohol poisoning this year.

 

[FitenFitenWin]

Yeah I deliberately avoided those - I’m close enough to extinction without pushing my luck Mr Lee.

It was just before the 2004 draft that I joined PRE and the predraft analysis, anticipation and anxiety reminds me of the good old times.

Geez I hope I haven’t jinxed it!

 

[DuD_Delist]

Have organised a draft night with all my mates.
