With pick 108 in the 2019 ORFFW preseason draft Manildra Football Club welcomes McKenzie Dowrick (Brisbane) View the Manildra Mystix current squad at http://tooserious.net/forum/threads/manildra-mystix-orffw.90316/ @Jason you are up with pick 109
It has been a strange draft for Adelaide players, 6 picked in the first 26 selections, then their next player taken at #59, then a whopping 50 picks later 3 players in a row selected from 109 through 111 matching the 3 selections in a row for GWS players earlier in the draft.
Pick 112 - Ashley ‘Sharpshooter’ Sharp Pick 113 - Matilda Sergeant I hope they were both available as I went off the FA list... true stabs in the dark these ones
I am 99% sure both were available @stripey On behalf of all of us in the ORFFW I wanted to thank you for stepping in as the 8th team owner at the 11th hour. We have drafted quickly and taking 15 picks in 7 days without time to prepare beforehand has been a big ask.
With our final pick at 114, the Katanning Krushers complete our list with Daria Bannister, North Melbourne. @dmandrews Thanks for letting me join your comp, I've thoroughly enjoyed the draft and hopefully have put together a competitive team. Good luck everyone and bring on AFLW 3.O!
Pick 115, Sophie Van De Heuvel, Geelong @Jason Well done, everyone on moving through the ORFFA W draft so swiftly. It will be very interesting to see how the 2019 ORFFA W season unfolds. The Lake St Clair Devils were close to selecting two defenders with their first two picks but this changed when @FreoDockers selected Kate Lutkins at pick 10 with the selection before our second round pick and we didn't end up selecting our second defender until pick 51 and will now have three players battling it out for the D2 spot to support the LSC Devils D1 and club captain Chelsea Randall.
With pick 117 in the 2019 ORFFW preseason draft Manildra Football Club welcomes Ashleigh Riddell (North Melbourne) View the Manildra Mystix current squad at http://tooserious.net/forum/threads/manildra-mystix-orffw.90316/ @Anthak you are up with your final selection - pick 118 - and can finally unveil your mystery selection By the way the Kangaroos appear to be covering their praccy match on twitter https://twitter.com/northaflw?lang=en
Now, for the moment TTH has been waiting for... *drum roll* With pick 118 of the 2019 ORRFW draft, the Pomona Nymphs select... Anna Teague from Geelong. A former Brisbane player, we saw her play a great game last season in just her second game at this level. A fairly experienced head now at the newly formed Geelong team, she will hopefully hold their defence together and step up from last year’s output. And that rounds out our team. @That KI Guy is now called to the podium
I do recall that discussion, I had a list of 5 for the last pick, she was on it, top 2 on it are still available
The final AFLW numbers were 15 - North Melbourne 14 - Carlton 13 - Brisbane, Fremantle 12 - Geelong, Western Bulldogs 11 - GWS, Melbourne 10 - Adelaide, 9 - Collingwood Added to the Mystix quartet of Blues and Belles awesome foursome of Roos were the Termites, Falcons and Belles reaching 4 Cats, Dogs and Giants respectively as they completed their sides. Most if not all ORFFW coaches would have selected 3 players from one or more AFW clubs so it will be interesting to see whether they benefit or lose from teams over/under performing in AFLW v3.0.
