While your reporting things Jackattack, Sam Fisher remains on my ranking list even though he has already been selected, not sure if this means that he could be owned twice as i have moved to auto selections due to work tomorrow afternoon/evening

My next pick has just been put on the veterans list

from pick 1 to 32 is a long time between drinks :)

Therefore-Why would you want extra time.I had a pick within a second each time. All be it- I stuffed up the whole thing.JA told me to get on at 6 Melbourne time. Did not understand how to operate it. Didn't realise phantom draft was an accurate thing.O well. Least got a pick. But definately would not have taken Jolly, first up.

I'll say...

IT says I have 19 hours to decide my next pick.

I think I will wait.

Gee I know it is a sleepy hole up in Canberra- no wonder you take so long to pick.I'm in Malaysia and it took me one second- instantaneously.

...and Jamar selected makes it easy. Was originally favouring Jamar over Mumford though.

I took Mummy last season as a reserve player, after he didn't even get drafted. He ended up outranking Jamar, and was probably the second best ruckman/forward as opposed to forward/ruckman (eg Ryder/Kreuzer). Jamar will get you your 30 hitouts and will win it for you assuming no-one else has a Cross (always got 6 extra hitots as third man up) or a second ruckman... but he didn't give you anything else most of the time. Aaaah Ufooty...

dappa dan, you are an awful man, i had hill penciled in right then

He was more or less an auto pick (I had them ranked only for the first 100 or so and for the most part it was as Ufooty ranked them)... but yeah, pleased with that!!!

In the post previous to this one you said you screwed up your most important pick...

Maybe you should take some more time...

Plenty of time to work out who you're going with for your pick. Big advantage the way I see it.

Backs - Broughton, Gibbs, Fisher

Mids - S.Tuck, Corey

Rucks - Goldstein

Forwards - Sylvia

There looks to be some solid teams being built so far.

Went by auto means last night, because I knew I'd miss the first few hours. I was happy to have landed Ablett at pick 4. Actually I tell a lie, I was ecstatic !

By the time I got on last night, all my pre draft selections had been taken. I'm topping up again, because it will be the same tonight for me, that and the fact I don't wish to hold anyone up.

Interesting concept and happy with my picks to date.

Why didn't 45 get Grimes ?? :)

PS. eth38 - Browny will be ok. After his early season form you may even approach me for a trade for him..:)

Is that right that the draft starts again in 3 hours from now?

Correct.

rpfc's pick times out around 5:00 (roughly).

I tried to make it 5:30 but the site didn't give me the option for half hour increments.

Don't be so modest...;)

I'll pump up your tyres for you..

Davey & Jurrah as well...

Your side is by far the best and will be the benchmark.

I would personally prefer Scarlett's team.

Some very wise picks in there, in terms of Ufooty at least.

EDIT: Dappa will be tough to beat with Sandilands.

I wasn't online- I am in Malaysia- I notified Jack Attack whom suggested I come online at 6pm. I had done a rough draft pick- just highlighting some of the players whom I was interested in .When I came on at 5.59 my picks wee done 2 of them. Auto something- then I realised what had happened. You have developed a good list- but I can assure you I would not have picked Jolly 1st up- would have been 3rd or 4th pick.That's lfe but hurry up tonight.Your first pick should take no more than a second.O well good luck to ya- I will know better next year. I can tell ya - it is frustrating when one takes so long. It is nearly the end of the earth.

You haven't done too badly yourself- Range Rover and you will give him a run for his money. I will go for the wooden spoon and extra draft picks for next year.

Need help seriously re this game. How I have read it we pick 11 players. 3 back, 3 forward, 1 ruckman 3 centres and a utility.These make up the team of 11 players.We then have 5 emergencies and 5 more on the bench -whom we can rotate etc..trade draft etc -Is that correct?

PLEASE ADVISE-THANKS

I had my eye on Jolly, I think you have done well to pick him up.

His late season form was great, early he was useless so his average stats for the year probably bring his projected ranking down a bit.

I had him as the second best ruck available.

You draft 21 players, and select a team of 11 (+5 emergencies) from those 21.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury.

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
