12 is a good number!

As said before, 12*22 = 264 players, but there's almost 700 players in the league!!
I agree. Everybody should get good teams out of it. Won't be great if everybody chooses only the best players. Then the 2nd and 3rd tier players don't come into play.

I'm second!!!! :D. I'm so happy :'( *tears of joy.

So is it current form or peak? Just need to clear it up. Will do research tonight since I have homework now (Procrastination >:(. My evil enemy >:().

Well, I'm hoping its "peak" in the sense we're assuming players aren't injured. But it would seem weird to be able to pick say, Leon Davis, and mean it was only his 2009 season ;)



So after some deliberation. There are many, many great players out there. However, you've got to ask yourself which position would be put at the most vulnerable if you passed on it? Well, the answer to that is the ruck.

So..

#1 Pick: AARON SANDILANDS



I figure that once Sandi goes, and he would have gone in the first round, that #2 pick for ruck is significantly less than he.

Over to you HP, See you all at pick 24.

Sandi a suprise early. Would of chosen Cox ahead of him at his peak but that's just me. He was a beast.

Pick number 2 goes to........................................... Chris Judd. No explanation needed here. He is arguably the best player in the game today and has been top 3 midfielders for a long time. Also brings someONE to the after parties ;).

Yeah. Should elaborate, Cox's "peak" right now isn't all that good in my view. Over his career sure... Not sure how everyone else will be picking their team, but I'll be picking them on the best they can be currently.


Judd's a great pick at #2 btw. Reigning Brownlow medallist


And over to Pyro at #3....

Hawka

No massive rush :)
Yeah.

Judd probably didn't deserve it this year but I'm going back a few years ago in his West Coast days where he utterly dominated with Kerr and Cousins.

pyronerd

ill take Brendan Goddard at number 3
