    Now the nervous wait for pick 4 after trading away pick 1. Wish I could be as confident as Danny Ainge that I’ll get my guy!

    @Tracey - whenever you're free, fire away.

    Any chance you are a cats fan @Jen ?

    You must have been spewing with Cunico's ton on the weekend when it is the week you want him to score a 50 and scare off all the other coaches ahead of you.

    I was gonna pick Murray with pick #1, so I’m pretty happy to get him now at 4.

    I was actually picking out of three guys for #1 and I thought at least one of them would likely fall to 4... as it turns out, all three were still available at 4!
    Maybe I’ll get one at 9?

    @TheTassieHawk - yes I am a big Cat fan.

    It was great to see him play so well for the team but not for this.

    FYI

    Mid draft trade.

    Lefties send Msd pick 55 and their 5th round psd pick to Cockies in exchange for msd pick 29.

    is it possible for someone to show on the spreadsheet in the OP which MSD picks are currently a "PASS" subject to those picks being traded of course ?

    the reason I am asking is I am requesting for people to sms me a few picks out from mine and I suspect a lot of the later picks won't get used

    Yeah I reckon this is something Len normally does.
    Unfortunately he is busy on an important business trip.
    When I say busy, I really mean drunk.
    And when I say business trip, I really mean tropical junket with Ally Fowler and Molly Meldrum.


    Not sure anyone else is cleverer enough to pull this spready together.

    Happy that I got Cunico given my favoured choice for pick 8 - Logan Austin - has been smartly snaffled, a really good pick up.

    Pick 8 now a toss up between about 6 players. Reckon you might be set for a good pick at pick 9, Ant!

    Yeah Cunico hadn’t even entered my mind, despite watching the Cats game this weekend, I didn’t even put 2and2 together that he was a FA.
    Excellent pickup and worthy #1.

    Sam Murray was my preference of my short listed players mainly because he’s a defender and I’ve currently got a long list of injured defenders:

    Harry Taylor
    Pearce Hanley
    Grant Birchall
    Bachar Houli
    Rory Laird
    - all currently injured, but some are due back soon.



    I’ve still got several quality players on my short list and will just pick best available now that I was able to get a defender straight up.

    I think this is one of the deepest mid season drafts ever.

    Agree 100% Ant. At least 30-35 players on my non short short list.

    I did get one at 9
    Surprisingly both my other #1 considerations were available at 9.
    So I had a tough choice.
    Ratugolea was the one I thought would be more likely to slip to my next pick, but he was also the one I wanted more, so I just picked him anyway.
