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

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.

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res
