    For years I've picked players in the draft who've had a run around in the seniors. Walters, Edwards, Ross, Newnes ... and if I haven't shied away from newbies on draft day, I've traded away picks that could've been used on them.

    The jig is up this year. Shallow draft pool and all the players of the type I'd normally take are gone. And I can't continue to recycle guys.

    So, project players maybe. Building blocks maybe. The person who eventually runs this team after me doesn't want a stack of recycled older types to delist.

    So to that end a project - Marcus Adams, D/F, Bulldogs. And perhaps more projects to come.

    The Misfit's recent ruck strategy of Ryder or bust is clearly a bust.
    Given the price of ruckmen it seems a good idea to grow my own, so we are going to grab this young guy and stick him in a pot out back for a couple of years..

    Pick 66, Matt Fynn, GWS Ruck

    The Nuffers have Wood, Sexton, Palmer and Hunt in the squad already. There is no way we could leave out this guy, just on his name alone...pick 68, just one short of the magic number, the Nuffers select Jake Long F/M Essendon

    Don't reckon there is much left to help me this year, so picking a kid for 2017.

    Pick 72 - Brent Stanton

    Project Number 3, but for entirely different reasons. Kid can play. Pick 74 - Jack Trengove, Melbourne Mid.

    I genuinely hope he can get back and play a bit. Deserves some good luck.

    My last pick for this draft, and another defender it is.

    Lots of gossip from some of my Port friends about this bloke.

    At 81 the Spelunkers take Riley Bonner

    I see you've taken the inactive picks out of the draft list. Better like this i reckon

    Well I was all set to take Bonner as a project (get stuffed Bandit! ;)) but now I'll just take this guy for depth instead, since it looks like he might get a regular game this year:

    #84 - Matt Dea

    He's injured and we won't see him for a while but I'll stash him away now and cross my fingers he turns out ok.
