[JBs-Hawks]

Il grab Ryan Burton

[kilbluff1985]

Dragons with pick 20 take Harley Balic

[Nige]

The wait until my first pick is getting shorter now that we've hit round 2. This is great!  ;D

Grope Lane is up again for back to back picks at 8 and 9.

Pick 8 is a simple one and we were actually surprised he is still available. Grope Lane take Aaron Francis.

Sorry PK. We are still discussing pick 9. Give us 10 mins.

Nice pick, best defender in the draft at 8 good work.

TDOG will be happy took him with pick 8 in AXVIII DT rightly or wrongly lol

[Rids]

Wrongly ;)

Hmm.

I am aware it's our pick again.

Doing some last minute research. Got a big list of guys left I still want and have narrowed it down to two. Pick will be up soon

[Pkbaldy]

Wrongly ;)

What sooks... im a mummas boy, but i reckon I'd get over it pretty quick if i had the chance to play AFL.

Agree mate. Safe to say this kid wont be seeing much footy at Freo unfortunately.  Ross doesnt like playing kids at the best of time. Any excuse I reckon.

?? Well that's not right. If kids are good enough/ready they play, doesn't matter which team they go to, even Freo

[Memphistopheles]

Okay we need a defender so we'll take Tom Cole.

Took some time on this one to pick between a couple of options

Pick 22 - Winchester Werewolves - Luke Partington

[Ringo]

and I keep marking them of my list,
