Probably should grab a fwd, but instead I've gone for another one I'm hoping can avoid the vest: 104. Brad McKenzie, MID, North Melbourne

Pretty good excuse when you are off studying up the Hun to see which moo cow you should pick. Think you nailed it with Harper too. I see everyone else is down to seeds and stems again
'I am going to take a flyer on Keiran HARPER from NM, love his talent, hope he can get it together.' Well done Jimbo, I hope he works out for you. A real talent who has not yet shone. Have to 'fess up and say he was on my list and two picks away from becoming a Waikick player.
.........and with the #127th & final pick in the ORFFA 2014 Pre Season Draft, the Hoppers welcome ~ * Billy Hartung, Hawthorn Mid

Well done everyone! Great draft. Massive thanks especially to Len of course. Excellent job well done Len.
As we're into stats here, just for interests sake, I've compiled some data about how quickly teams took their picks in this draft. It isn't indicative of much at all, but it's interesting Firstly, there were 3 times in the draft where teams had 2 picks in a row. Venus Bay at 27 & 28; Foul Bay at 51 & 52; and Waikikamoocow at 66 & 67. For the purposes of this analysis, I've merged these double picks into 1 for each of the 3 teams. So, the quickest pick was not 0 seconds! It was actually just 1 min though! And it happened twice. Charlie's Opening at 29 and Lovely Banks at 69. the longest it took any team, was Iron Knob at #90 with 17 hours and 54 minutes - so close to the 18 hour deadline Iron Knob was also the longest average too, taking an average of 7 hours, 41.5 min per pick. The quickest picker, by ave, was Waikikamoocow, who averaged just 5.8 min for each pick (just 4.6min if you include the 0 for the double pick). Here's the order of all teams. Name; picks; ave Waikikamoocow; 4 (5); 5.8 (4.6) min. Charlies Opening; 5; 18.2 min Foul Bay; 3 (4); 23.3 (17.5) min Marble Bar; 5; 24.8 Nunnawading; 4; 32 min Birdsville; 6; 33.2 min Lovely Banks; 5; 42.8 min Whitsunday; 4; 49.3 min Cradle Mountain; 6; 49.5 min Larrikin Lagoon; 5; 1 hour & 2.6 min Darraweit Guim; 4; 1 hour, 17 min Gundagai; 6; 1 hour, 30 min Venus Bay; 6 (7); 1 hour, 32.8 min (1 hour, 19.6 min) Mt Beauty; 4; 1 hour, 37.8 min Gariwerd; 6; 1 hour, 40.3 min Wagga Wagga; 6; 4 hours, 6.3 min Powlett Plains; 7; 4 hours; 46.1 min Iron Knob; 4; 7 hours, 41.5 min

Gundagai's ave was around the same time it took them to take the first pick of the draft There were 5 times where it took more than 10 hours. The most picks in succession to take more than 1 hour each, was 4, from #8 to #11. It took more than 22 hours to make those 4 picks. The most picks in succession to take less than an hour was 10, from #44 to #53. It took just 2 hours and 34 min to make those 10 picks.
'The quickest picker, by ave, was Waikikamoocow, who averaged just 5.8 min for each pick (just 4.6min if you include the 0 for the double pick).' I guess that means I spend far too much time online - an occupational hazard of being retired. Or is that a non sequitur?
