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.

Please answer my question re the team and how do I pick manually. I was on some automatic if ranks thing last night-if I want to switch to manual-does that mean I just put the players name in and it will take that player?

Next year I suggest we make the time limit on drafting to 5 minutes. Would then get it over with in two nights.Great game and thanks JA.

I think you' right 5 minutes would be much better.

Re drafting, you may need to change your drafting preferences to "manual" for the option; when my pick.

Thanks mate- you have done a stirling job but I think I have sung Silent night 30 times whilst waiting for my pick and I am still goin. Next year hey? Well done my friend -excellent job.

Can we switch to 5 minutes tomorrow-I will be in Manila- dreaming about the slaughter by High Tower in the opening game. If we didn't have the auto for SO LONG we would be marching through.What does others think?

Still happy with Byrnes though.

If anyone knows they're going to be away from their computer then setting their preferences to auto pick would speed things up.

I think i can change the time limit during the draft, so if it's not moving quickly I can change it. Might [censored] a few people off who thought it was 15 minutes though.

just do it, if people havnt made there pick by 5 mins or 10 mins, there not gonna make it, and it just auto picks anyway, we're into the 7th round not as if we're gonna miss out on that "star" player, although someone did shark pettard on me lol

Yeah I agree Scarlo.

It's not like people need their full 15 minutes, if they're taking the full 15 it's pretty much been because they haven't been around it seems.

I agree. Just make it 5 minutes.

I agree. Just make it 5 minutes.

1 minute if you like- no 5 is right.Go for it JA

I agree. Just make it 5 minutes.

Okay unless I get a reasonable objection before 6:30 I'll drop it to 5 minutes (if I can change it).

Change it ASAP - This is crazy

DAMN YOU MAD MELBOURNE! now i gotta think up two new selections, pettard and mzungu were gonna be mine this round!

You wouldn't have treated him right. I'll at least call him by his real name B)

(Off everyone else's bandwagon, really unsure how my team will go - leaning towards not very well!)

Posted

My computer never ever works when I really want it to.

For the third time, I'm still happy with my auto-selection, I was most likely getting Walker anyway...

took a couple of risk's, i think watts will actually score quite well but mcintosh is injured until rnd 4 with barlow also injured for the first 4 rounds.(also i had to have a melbourne player in there somewhere!)

Barlow is a gun,

On averages he's the number 1 ranked player from 2010.

Tail end of the draft now.

If you're done for the night and are checking out, please set your prefernces to auutopick before you leave, this way the rest of us can be done quicker.

someone happy, but also a bit frustrated, to see the preference picks i got, although it means that the players i had ranked higher, were taken and i would have probably picked them anyway

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
