AFL Dynasty Draft

[pothead]

I will take grant birchall to play off half back he is only 23 and can set up good play running out of half back

[Hulmie]

I'm going to go ahead and choose Hayden Ballantyne he is in the top 3 small forwards in my opinion he applies so much defensive pressure in the forward line, and is just a great crumbing player to have around in the forward line.

I like Birchall and was hoping he'd slip further :(. 2 more off my shortlist.

My pick will be up a bit later. Will let Boomz know when I do mine :).

My next pick is a young Gun with a Great Boot. Considering I've got Hurn at Half Back, doesn't hurt if he can kick it to this young man who might soon surpass his kicking skills! He is Daniel Rich and will be playing in the Centre for me.

He's a courageous player and is in his third season where he is only getting better and better. He's a very solid all round midfielder and will contribute straight away as well as getting better with experience. Won't be long before he starts contending for the brownlow.

P.S He is one CF I'd take over Beams. One more is still available but debatable with Rocky and Unknown but Rich clearly over Beams for me.

[Boomz]

Nice Pick HP I thought about him earlier.

I'm gonna take Tom Bellchambers 8)

Very good tap ruckman who is our main actual ruckman this year and is in great form. His around the ground has improved a lot and he will only get better. Still 21 too.

Will put Clark as FF & have Belly as my main ruckman.

B: ---, Frawley, Gwilt
HB: Goddard, Grundy, ---
C: ---, Mundy, ---
HF: ---, Cloke, Sidebottom
F: Lecras, Clark, ---
Foll: Bellchambers, Priddis, Martin
Int: ---, ---, ---, ---

need some time for my 2nd pick.

[Maca24]

Good picks you 2!
BIG BELLY! haha love the bloke, great mark.
I chose rocky over Rich, but they were the best mids I could see.

[Justin Bieber]

Boomzie told me to choose Jarryd Blair for him as his internet connection is slow :(. Off to a flyer this season and proving to be a valuable small forward for Pies.

[Justin Bieber]

It was either a FF, HFF or a Pocket. Might go with Dixon's meantime mentor in Drew Petrie.

Don't you love a guy who fools around at practise? :P.

Petrie is a great FF/Part time Ruck for the near future (4 seasons likely) and have Smith and Dixon to be his protege's in both 8). Allows me to potentially play 3 talls up forward and alot of goal kicking power :).

Sorry Maca, knew you wanted him but couldn't bring it to pick my other picks over him.

[Justin Bieber]

My team so far:

Backs: Broughton, Chaplin, ---
Half Backs: Hurn, Taylor, ---
Centre: Hill, Rich, Rischitelli
Half Forward: Chapman, Franklin, ---
Forwards: Dixon, Petrie, ---
Rucks: Smith, A. Swallow, ---
Interchange: ---, ---, ---, ---

Midfield is nice and young and Effective so I like it. Backline and Forward line looking good for me so far. Thoughts?

[RiOtChEsS]

good picks fellas... this draft seems to be keeping a reasonable pace :D

[Hulmie]

Ok well I'm going to go ahead and choose Scott Thompson. I feel he is so underated as a player. He's 28 so he has a few years left but he adds a nice bit of veteran experiance to my midfield.

FB - ? B.Lake ?
HB - J.Adcock N.Brown ?
C - D.Wells S.Thompson B.Stanton
HF - S.Johnson M.Pavlich C.Sylvia
FF - H.Ballantyne J.Kennedy ?
Foll - ? J.Selwood D.Swallow
I/C - ? ? ? ?

[CrowsFan]

Thought he had already been picked, which is why I didn't pick him :(
I should learn to read the draft!

[RiOtChEsS]

Maca is usually pretty quick to update the page 1 list...

when im doing my pick/write up i usually open 2 tabs one on page 1 and the other on my post ;)

[Boomz]

Updated side with Blair included 8)

B: ---, Frawley, Gwilt
HB: Goddard, Grundy, ---
C: ---, Mundy, ---
HF: ---, Cloke, Sidebottom
F: Lecras, Clark, Blair
Foll: Bellchambers, Priddis, Martin
Int: ---, ---, ---, ---

Have a few players that can play FF so Clark could end up starting on the bench :-X Belly is a superior tap ruck...

[RiOtChEsS]

got some stealthy pockets BOOMZ :o
