    During a draft, I think as long as you check TS at least twice a day then it's nearly impossible to miss a pick regardless of Timezones. I know it's 9pm to 3am for me so sometimes I may not get on in morning or until arfternoon when busy but always around.

    Patience should be a given if it gets to someone and they're offline because it's night there, there's still plenty of leeway. Draft has been running well so far. Hardly notice we have new members who "ain't from around these parts". :p

    Main thing with the twelve hour limit is to ensure that if we do reach an impasse there's at least two picks a day before it restarts after a bottleneck. There was a time there we were in literal danger of missing start of season, so it needed the deadline change. If it gets people worried and checking more often, then great, more site hits for Walesy :D

    Was considering to re-draft him too. Just not sure I want my shortlist just to end up being "Pig offal". :p

    His numbers at TAC level are outstanding, the hold back is that as a 91kg "over ager" he may have been beating up "lightweights".
    All reports I've seen since draft suggest WCE got a bargain.

    That said, NFI on Terry's source :p

    His numbers are as impressive as his brother at Freo (who went at Pick 2), but he is 20 and ready to go. Wet Toast have a number of recently retired mids, so there is opportunity. A gnat's foreskin behind Brayden Ainsworth at the moment.

    Thanks @Len even on draft night all the commentary was about the feel good factor, nothing about his actual football

    Thanks to you too @TerryinBangkok for your insight.. Ainsworth looks a little out his depth at this stage imo from what I saw today

    If Freo had drafted him there would always have been some thoughts floating around about him being the pony to keep the racehorse content. The fact that he went to WCE serves him better and demonstrates his draft-worthiness separate to his brother's story.
    He was one I had hoped might last to 96 tbh, will serve the weagles well I am sure

    Heads up, after tonight I am going to be offline until around 10pm Sydney time on Tuesday.
    Highly unlikely I cause a hold up but if so it should be short.
    Whom I pick is wildly variable at the moment so a list isn't doable this far out.
