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...

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..:)

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.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
