    With my second last pick I will take a kid that Clarko this week said to look out for, when Clarko pumps a kid up there must be something in it!
    Touted as a first round draft pick GWS traded him away a pre selection pick and now he ends up at the Uglies.

    Pick 41 Hawthorn FC Jed Anderson
    Pretty much sets up my midfield for the next 10 years:{)
     
  2. As Far Kew are up after chels, can I quickly get confirmation I should still be picking for them?

    The Waikiks have decided to strengthen their forwards and take a bit of a risk. Hopefully this player will star alongside his younger mate Jamie Elliott.
    Pick 43 Brent Macaffer Cllimgwood

    It was Terry's intent that BB would conduct the draft for Far Kew, likely or unlikely there has been no handover of team.
    That said, it might be prudent to read the PM bb :)
     
  8. I am conflicted, so I replied to you Chris with a couple of names if you can ask her about them

I gave BB a name, but you are right - its been stated clearly that BB drafts for Far Kew until the handover is formal. BB - I got your mail and if you are drafting on Jen's behalf for now, the first name on your list of two - your first choice - should be the one that is drafted.

  11. In that light the Far Kew interim management are very pleased to welcome to the club a former U18 All-Australian defender and first round AFL Draft selection,
    #43 Matthew Watson - Carlton
    At 195cm and 100kg Watson has been groomed for the centre-back role at Carlton, and with his booming left foot and excellent disposal it is little wonder he is slated to take the kick-in duties for the Blues. A minor injury and subsequent surgery (broken finger) in 2012 saw him restricted to only 8 games, but his 65 SC average showed he is already capable of standing up in the AFL. A certain 10 year player, we look forward to watching his career with the Frogs

    Just to be clear, so everyone knows, I sent a name of a player to BB, but BB had two other players mentioned in a reply to me. I've replied to BB saying that, in accordance to the intentions of Terry regards the draft and handover, BB should be making the choice, and to choose whom he thinks is best (in other words, the first option on the list). Again, Lenh is spot on and despite Jen supplying a name of a player, it shouldn't have been passed onto BB because until there is a formal handover, BB is picking on its behalf.

    To be honest, that line in my comment was completely redundant, bb is taking the picks, he can listen to the pope if he likes :)
    CR is up next, he should be on within the hour if running to normal schedule..

    It is not a problem. But it was a potential problem. When there is an exchange of PMs between chris88 and BB, discussing potential draft picks on behalf of a third party, who is yet to join us. When BB is an astute judge of horseflesh and chris88 himself is still live in the draft. Let us hope this doesn't give pause for second thoughts.

    Was tossing up for about the last 10 or so picks after Dan Nicholson went between two blokes. And then Watto got picked the pick before mine, making the decision easy on me. Good thing I had settled on this bloke anyway...

    Pick 44 - Jordan Murdoch (Geelong)
     
  18. In the interests of full disclosure the first name was Watson, the second was Rhyce Shaw

    worthy pick up BB. It was with a heavy heart that the Lefties recently delisted him, but someone had to go. Was half tempted to re-draft him with my last pick but his face wasn't on my dice. He'll prolly go Kaboom this yr just to spite me :) Good luck at the Frogs Matty!

    While consulting the Vatican on draft selections is not against the ORFFA rules, you might have a hard time of it while the position vacant sign is hanging on the door.
