Nah, I realised now Rico must have been referring to Ben Ross. I was thinking it was Seb, hence my comment.

Josh Cowan

Also think a change of clubs means this guy won't be used as an under-sized key defender, and might get his hands on the ball

Ahhhh goddamit. Thought he'd slip back to us in the rookie draft.

Yay,

someone took him. Top stuff Purp. I feel a few avoiding the spoon should have picked him up though, almost did at 41 for Dillos but they needed defenders more.

We considered him but our defenders are more thin than our fwds hence we took Ted Richards instead (who averages the same as JPod).

I saw that, was a very good pick that one.

wish dillos had a few more late ones as he would have been a guy I would have targeted. Just couldn't pass on number 16 in the draft.

Thanks Holzy, I really wanted both Ted (for immediate scoring) and Tayte Pears (as I think he has a lot of potential) so stoked to get them both! :)

Not sure if he can fit back but has been trialled up forward. Hopefully gets some games here and there but hard to displace the Bomber defence, unless Fletch is rested!

Very nice picks Purp, especially late. Pods/Fletch are great depth for the short term, I was actually considering Pods because could use the forward depth boost, and think you guys could use them well with your midfield strength ;).

Cheers HP, I hope I don't have to play Pods though :P

If Fletch keeps up his 80 average, which i was surprised he had, he'll play some handy games for me. They are also just mere picks in the 90s, I doubt there would have been future young guns to pick anyway, so thought I may as well :)
