ORFFA 2014 MSD Draft Thread

The applicable rules to this draft:

1. It is a requirement that you draft 6 compulsory picks per year, these can be done all in the preseason draft, or over both drafts.

- A minimum of 4 of those compulsory picks must be taken in the preseason draft, that is you must enter the 2014 preseason draft with a maximum of 24 players.

- It is not a matter of how many players you de-list, that is potentially irrelevant as the list size can be traded down or up in the trade period prior.

- If you enter the 2014 PSD draft with more than 22 players you must participate in this 2014 mid-season draft.
2. Each coach will have 18 hours to make their selection, after which time that turn is skipped, if they have not posted by the time any subsequent picks come up each pick will be given at least 6 hours and then also skipped. This rule will be applied with discretion.
3. Skipped picks can be taken at any time, please state in the post that it is a skipped pick along with the standard pick info.

4. Please double check that the player you are selecting is available first. Onus is on the coach to pick an available player, if you pick an ineligible player and subsequent selections are made by other coaches prior to its discovery their selections will stand and you will have to pick from the available pool at the time. Common sense prevails and will be applied by me, as commonly as I can..

5. If for some reason two people manage to legitimately pick the same player, resulting from timing around a scheduled pick and a skipped pick, the post with the earliest time stamp is the one who keeps him.

6. At the end of this draft all teams will have a squad of 28 AFL eligible players.

Official start time is 9pm Melbourne time, Monday 19th May.
All selections are to be posted here in this thread.

This first post will be updated with selections made as regularly as possible.

Strongly suggest you subscribe to the thread (at the bottom of the page) so you get an email when someone posts.

When making a selection please make sure there can be no confusion over who you mean, state the selection (pick) number, and ideally the players first name, surname and the AFL team he plays for.
If you get a PM from me advising it's your pick don't take it personally I send them to all coaches if they haven't made their selection within an hour or two..

Thanks for updating the list Len. Im looking forward to this draft. All clubs are participating and pick 39 is the first to not be needed.

 

so we kick off later today. I think it'll be a 7am start for Snoz.

 

Interesting that everyone has decided to take a punt on 2 picks in the draft, with a few opting for more.

I forgot that y'day was deadline for delistments (as foreshadowed!) and missed the chance to delist another player from my list - I hope that gent earns his reprieve with some good performances.

Best of luck everyone, looking forward to seeing who goes where.

 

Bit surprised ant, I wasn't expecting 39 to be the first skipped pick, though it would happen a bit earlier than that.. 9pm gives sNoZ best chance to be awake, 7am his time, so no excuses

I would just like to reassure you that I am awake. Currently 3rd cup of coffee, so am ahead of Simon. By my reckoning, should be 6pm my time. If it goes quickly, well and good, but if not by 7 pm I shall have to depart and return in the morning.

Loud and clear. A bold choice Simon, may he do well for you. And with the addition of delistments, the list of available players is now officially a dog's breakfast. Good luck with that one if you haven't done your homework (but thanks Len).

 

We finally get a draft time that works for Simon, and it apparently doesn't work for Chris, clearly not used to picking at this end of the gravy train...

 

I'm around, give me 10 minutes

Great pick Simon. Charlie was electric on Thursday night - really exciting and goes in hard at it. He and Walker helped liven up what had been a rather staid Crows forward line.

Mr McGlynn, welcome to the Guim's forward line.

PS - you're needed.

Intriguing, I had not expected to see forwards go as the first two picks. Gives me fresh hope for my preferred first pick. Clairvoyance. You know the next pick will be a forward?

 

The old pencil strikes again. Or was it the pinot?
