    Protest dismissed. Pick 30 was naturally mine and then I took the tired old Buddy off your hands with pick 31.

    What's the complaint @picket fence?

    Might be worth noting that as the draft order wasn't based on merit (or lack thereof) but rather a coin-toss (which scored you pick 2 and Oliver), I took the suggestion to follow a four-down and four-up pattern for greater equability. Such that adonski, who came last in the coin-toss, earned pick 4 & 5, and myself pick 3 & 6, through to WERRIDEE, who had to wait until pick 8 to follow up his #1, but then got 9 as well. Is there a specific breakdown in that order you think may have occurred?

    Also, everyone is still miles off a team-sheet, as we all get side-tracked with normal life. The selections to date are as follows (from memory, the two trades I've been involved in are the only ones made to date):

    WERRIDEE) Gawn, Wines, Boak, Neale, Langdon, McLuggage, Andrews

    Picket Fence) Oliver, Walsh, NicNat, McKay, Stewart, J. Cameron

    Skuit FC…..) Trac, Martin, Greene, Buddy, De Goey, C. Cameron, B. Smith.

    adonski …..) Bont, Hawkins, May, MacRae, Lever, Whitfield, Fritsch, L. Jackson.

    After seven 'rounds', adonski has an extra number because I sold him my 11 & 14 for 5, and you have one less because I kindly traded J. Cameron for Franklin and a pick 31 sweetener.

    Now that we're into the back end of the best 22, some new fantasy drafting rules;

    (Yes, everyone has other lives, and I've been as slack as anyone here to date, but we should get a move-on).

    A poster-club shall forfeit their natural selection if not made within 24 hours of the previous pick. 

    The poster can jump in at anytime after that forfeiture to make their selection. 

    Whoever posts first between the forfeited pick and the next selection gets 'right-of-way'.

    To countenance the advantage to @adonskiand @WERRIDEEin having bookended picks;

    After a 24-hour lapse the next in line can make a selection, at which point the clock restarts. 

    When a selection is made, tag the next person in line using the @symbol and poster handle. 

    Exceptions can be made if excuses are furnished in advance - trading is preferable though. 

    These new rules only take effect once all contestants agree and 'like' this post. 

    Happy drafting everyone. Looking forward to setting up a poll and making the case for my list.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
