nice draft last night team - sorry I left without a goodbye but it was kinda late here. TiB, I see you chose an Essendon (Hibberd) player and I got a good Port boy (the Sarge) - perhaps we could put the first trade together? back to the muster
Oh nooooooooooooooooo Just went in to set my list for the draft at 830pm tonight. WOW.....Soooooooooooooooooo stupid sNoZ
lol, I did expect you there sNoZ, you have some great trade targets to list though, wouldn't be hard to re-balance
Great draft last night, pity the chat feature doesn'tallow for more participative banter... having to refresh all the time takes the dynamics out of it.

It did a bit, but massively better than the cb one where the chat just didn't work, and still doesn't I think.. Yeah, CB obviously didn't pay VS enough to have a working chat feature in their game Enjoyed last night's draft, although couldn't really participate in chat coz of eating tucker at start of draft then trying to catch up on crossing drafted players off my list so I knew where I was at for targeted players. Reckon I nailed at least a third of players I wanted and expected to be available at my picks - not 100% happy with quality of some mids & fwds, but at least I ended up with a pretty flexible starting squad!!!
See the CB talk is creeping back in here. Guess I will just have to tolerate it since you have a dysfunctional chat. Suggestion: how about making this thread the main source of banter on SC Draft? Rather than creating a new and more obvious one, we can fly under the radar here. Given recent events, I am a bit sensitive towards others suddenly realizing we are having fun. I enjoyed the hell out of that draft. Am sure BigLance would have enjoyed it too. Len is right that the double picks for first and last are kinda nice, but nothing seems as slow as 2 minutes when you are waiting for 19 other dibs. I finally had to leave before the last pick and saw there were a wealth of MIDs coming up, so figured I would get something reasonable on auto if I left MID to last (Kane Cornes). But had to laugh this morning when I checked the free agent list - you have to go down about 30 places to find a scrawny MID. And sorry about Devon Len, he will of course enter season 2013 on-field (nice forward line the Misfits have). Noticed only about 3 of us picked an EMG for each line. Guess the choice is do you want cover or do you want something to trade. Also noticed that Bandit's Tippett theory went out the window fairly early. Overall I thought the entire SC Draft process was pretty smooth and I like the visual set-up for your eventual team and the flexibility with DPP. It is a pity the Admin does not have control over the Waiver, otherwise we would give Simon and Breust first crack. It was like a horror movie watching the way the dead and fatally wounded were slowly pushed to the top of the list. As a purely academic exercise, would be interesting to list the draft order on here and then compare it with the ladder at the end of the season. Lesson: set the bloody alarm clock and make sure you are at the draft table.
I swore loudly a couple of times last night as my picks got sucked out just when I thought they were going to slip through to me. Thanks for upsetting me, in no particular order, over: 1. Jarrad McVeigh; 2. The Frenchman; 3. Chris Mayne; 4. Pearce Hanley; and 5. Jonathon Giles. You know who you are and I will remember!

I share your pain Chels. Rich Moloney The Frenchman Leuenberger (Don't know why I had a Brisbane bias) Tippett wouldhavebeen taken on the way back by sNoZ if I hadn't of grabbed him TiB... he had two cracks before my next pick. Hopefully he pays dividends second half of the season
Yeah, I think we can comfortably call this thread home Terry, the cb one has it's own thread now, I think it was raised here again as a comparison more than anything else Draft went really well for mine, though I did end up 1 or 2 good mids short and thus my elite fwd/def line can be pillaged to a small degree by those overstocked in mids. I completely forgot that Terry and I have man-love for the same GWS guys and was certain Smith would be available 2 picks later, bit of a bugger that... by the sounds of it the only deeply desired guy I nabbed was Mr Greene
