Serbia Trade: Rookie 29 + Rookie 43
Norway Trade: Drew Petrie

I bloody hope Rookie picks are worth a lot more than they are in Worlds...know McLean was available as you said but would be interesting to see who was taken at picks 29 and 43. Quite the trade

rookie picks are very valuable in the euro, we only have 14 teams and small lists so there are heaps of good players avilable.

also petrie is a SC player he isnt that good at DT.

check out some of the picks


8. JBs - Shaun Atley
23. Nails - Brent Staker
24. Pickers - Arryn Siposs , i traded him for clancee pearce.
34. Hawka - Brett Goodes
43. Scrads - Majak Daw
47. Spinking - Kane Lucas
65. Holz - Robbie Tarrant
71. Holz - Charlie Dixon
79. Holz - Richard Douglas

I think everyone would agree that picking up the 11th highest scoring player at that pick would probably be the greatest pick in XVs history. I was looking through the list of unpicked playersand just wanted a guy to sit on my bench thought I was a genious thinking he might go up to 80 given he was a best and fairest winner.

roo boys!

I would know, Richard Douglas spent a small amount of time at the Wolves before I though "Nah, Clint Young will do the job...."

i got Matt Jones with pick 63 out of 70 or something in the BXV Draft i would have picked him much earlier but that was my teams first pick in the draft i think lol

nobody knew much about him then but i did thought that was a bargain

not sure why i posted that must be bored

ok ill give you the others but almost anyone would have known cloke barlow and goldy would return to genuine premium status ;)


haha lez didnt. However this was before Hmac was traded.

Yeah I traded him... But that was with Hmac dominating and Goldy didn't get a game at the time of the deal was made.

forgot Euro was DT, changes my comments a little, in regards to cloke and goldy, both far better SC options at their positions.

I must admit i would have given goldy up cheap for DT too, and i would have been wrong but who knew.....

hard to work out what a ruck is worth in DT with the changes so many are worthless, think tom nichols is better than 80% of the premiums so far.....

there were still some pretty decent players left (mostly youth with potential) - euros rookie is quality ;) I think those picks bounced around a bit more, but 29 ended up being hampson and 43 daw.

Yeh ruckmen in DT based comps aren't worth that much. Atm there are 9 players averaging between 80 and 92. Annnd Nic Nat, Bellchambers, McEvov, Maric, Griffin, Giles, Mummy and Sandi are all averaging less than 80.

At least the THUNDER isn't around to cause troubles for your lot! ;D

Nails

Armadillos look similar to Eagles when fully fit. So do the Suns.
