Had this guy pegged since the 1st round, but knew he'd be under the radar.

How long to leave it? I may have even pulled the trigger too early.

Pick 111 - Ben Reid - Collingwood

No I'd say your timing was pretty good actually.

Come on eth!

I agree. I don't necessarily think he was floating under the radar either. I think he's fallen at the pick at where he probably should.

It is all subjective and they will fall upon where entrants needs are. The rules of this draft ie. one player from each club also dictate or influence where they fall. It's an interesting concept.

Black Ops strikes again

We used 2 GB on Saturday and I had cricket in the morning, watched the cricket in the afternoon and stayed over at a friend's that night. Black Ops contributes, but it isn't all me :P

Question:

Are we picking players based solely on a shot at a hypothetical 2011 flag, or are we creating a side that will challenge for a few years after that as well? ie. With the last six or seven picks youth and/or experience becomes a stronger factor ...

Whatever floats your boat.

Whatever floats your boat.

I agree.

I've picked a team to win a 2011 flag, but with an eye to the future.

Which is why I haven't been keen on blokes like Scarlett, Brown, Black or Bock.

Fletcher is an interesting one. Made the AA squad of 40 this year and remains the only unpicked player from that group.

How long can that gadget man keep going!

Pick 114 - Wildcard pick - L. McPharlin (Freo)

The Master's Team:

FB: _____ Grima Hurn

HB: ________ McPharlin _____

C: Thomas Thompson Hill

HF: D. Swallow Henderson Monfries

FF: ______ Franklin ______

R: Jamar ______ Griffen

I decided it was time to take my second key back. Tossed up going for a more natural full back N. Brown, Carlile, Dawson, Thompson or any other good defender - Tarrant, T. Williams, C. Bolton, Grundy, Gibson. But at the end of the day thought Grima is versatile enough to play full back and McPharlin just has an edge of class on most of those.

I've picked a team to win a 2011 flag, but with an eye to the future.

Which is why I haven't been keen on blokes like Scarlett, Brown, Black or Bock.

I've picked a team to strive for a flag in 2011-12-13-14. Looks as though we agree to disagree regarding Bock. I'd be staggered that at 27 he is considered finished. And I doubt very much Scotty Clayton would be of the same opinion as you E. Must be subjective.

Round 12

Pick 117 - Travis Varcoe - Geelong

B Glass

HB Montagna Moore Grimes

C Cassisi

Nice.

I hope Bennell ends up as good as Varcoe. Similar starts to their career, small glimpses of real talent, but a lot of nothing games.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
