I just want to take my last pick so I can be finished with the draft :(

We are moving on aliir aliir

Russia can pick whenever they want

Teia Miles for Croatia
And we are done for the draft

With pick 34 we'll finally take that backup ruckman! Playing as a KPF this season, eeeeeeasily best 22 at his club, giving Ryder a chop out in the rucks. Come on down, Jackson Trengove!

Now Rico amd I are loving the punty nature of this pick. Its no secret that key position fwds take a long time to develop, but we feel we've got the ability to invest some time into this kid. Two averages in the 50s in his first two seasons, exactly the same as one Buddy Franklin in his first two years ;) Come on down the Bashers Buddy understudy... Paddy McCartin!

Aaaand Bashers are done!

Zip messaged, will update OP when I get home

I never got a message to say this had started or it was our pick. The only message I saw was the message Holz sent yesterday at 2:30pm when I logged in 5 mins ago......

Anyways, will need to try and chat to Nostra who hasn't been online since 21 Feb. Pretty disappointing that we have been skipped after waiting weeks for it to start.

Jake Barrett is on Zips list. Try again mate

OP error, my bad

Holz · February 24, 2017, 11:52:11 AM

I apologise for the confusion everyone.

Nost and Rids have always been fantastic in the euros and across the boards.

Really its my fault for starting the draft soo late.

Just a reminder Rids and Nost are co-coaches. As are Ele and Rico

Rids · February 24, 2017, 11:55:18 AM

seriously.....

The guy we would have taken was taken last pick as well ::) ::) ::)

We take Tom Lamb if he isnt on anyone's list.

Svalbard will go with Short for our last pick

He's just turned 21, played 16 games last year... a little short (pun intended), but he's young enough that hopefully he can get a couple of cms on him still :P

Ticks our box as a defender, hopefully he can add a couple of points to his average and be good depth for us this year :)

We pass on our remaining picks

Scrads · February 24, 2017, 02:31:45 PM

Wolves will take Darcy McPherson.

Holz · February 24, 2017, 03:07:20 PM

Fun fact i moved up to rookie 8 to pick this guy up. I wanted him all along last year but took Cooney in the rookie knowing i could take this guy in the essendon top up. Was worried he wouldnt last so as i said traded up.

no brainer at this pick.

welcome back to the team.

the next guy i wanted to draft, been injured but like what he can do
