    No probs Len - all good. Though given the news that Maister is now out 8 weeks with a hammy done on the weekend, I'm suspecting Jen might like Pick 75! Can't understand - he did his hammy on Sunday night, they could've said something a bit earlier so Jen could perhaps delist him .... damn you St Kilda.

    Morning guys......up as early as I could, and then computer snafus trying to log in. First pick......could have realistically gone in about 4 different directions, still unsure as to whats the right choice, but thanks to Chris & TiB for their advice. Sooooooo bloody confused, wish I had traded the pick now :) 1st Pick = Aaron Mullett

    Think Andy's snuck in with a good pick there. Campbell Brown has looked rejuvenated this year, even at his age.

    Sorry Chris. For some reason thought Darraweit was anthak. With pick #7 the Warriors take Jason Johannisen.

    dmandrews has picked a good one. McBean has huge wraps on him as a ruck/forward, has been dominating at VFL level and is only a kid right now. Richmond officials and fans are giddily excited about him. As a Richmond fan I had him on my list of rucks that could be considered in this draft, which given he's played about 8-10 VFL games, shows how much potential he has. Unlikely to play this year - though, that said, he is our form big man at VFL level right now - but has a massive amount of potential. A real smoky pick in this draft, but one with a good strong basis in form.

    The pick is more for the future and fits the need of the Devils in gettinga young Ruckman. McBean has been performing well in the VFL,kickingat least two goals in his last seven matches.McBean has got good mobility for a 202cm player is only 18 and has been picked as the successor to 29 year old Mark Jamar as the Devils number 1 ruckman.

    wow, good pick TiB. There are 91 players to be selected all up over both drafts, and I started with a shortlist of 98 players, but I didnt have Johannisen on it at all... but after looking him up, he seems to be a great selection. good one. Weird to see someone go in the top 10 that I hadnt even considered though. Weird for me at least. everyone else probably considered him :)

    Looking forward to my pick coming up. There's quite a lot of decent options in this pool. The top 4 played out exactly as I would have expected, but theres so many more in that next tier that are similar types.

    Sorry for the delay folks, had a sleep in then took ages for the laptop to fire up!!! (plus I didn't realise Andy's 2nd pick was so soon - his message from 4 days ago said 23 was his 2nd pick but that may be before he traded)!!!
    Onto business so I don't hold up everyone else - next cab off the Melbandy list is........ Pick #11 - Ricky Pettard (Richmond)

    After some tossing and turning, Wagga Wagga have come to a decision to take, at pick #12, Cameron O'Shea (Port Adelaide), Defender.
