Whenever cafegerat decides on a pick 1.

So other than 3 players from @TrevorBix - the spreadsheet is basically good to go.

Come on cafe let 'er rip.

Gonna take a stab at:
Jon Griffin, Jesse White & Brandon Matera

I am actually hesitant to send the spreadsheet at all yet given one of the top scoring available players from last year is David Mackay who @TrevorBix is currently not keeping.

I have sent him an email to confirm his keepers.

As I said earlier, I would like to have a quick look at all available players before I make the pick. I still have 13 hours don’t I? :wink:

So the spreadsheet won’t go out until tomorrow morning - blame @TrevorBix! Everyone should be able to see everyone’s keepers on UF - but it probably won’t tell you too much.

Plenty of time. I highly doubt you are going to grab one of the non-keepers.

It’s done, my apologies! Combination of travel and new website has put me out of whack.

Thanks mate. Who did you cut?

Welcome to the Yambags, Essendon’s own Andrew McGrath. Very hard decision to make but the B status won me over, maybe a bit of bomber bias too. Melk texted.

Spreadsheet will be out by 9am

Good pick saladin. That’s who I would’ve chosen.

enjoyed pick 4, but also quite a tough call. A ■■■■■■ tough call actually.

The top three were fairly straight forward. But after that it became a case of trying not to second guess/ find a reason to talk myself OUT of the next selection.

I went with Bowes because his scoring in every comp is outstanding. His Neafl elim final against seasoned bodies was impossible to ignore… Dual position already, and Eade has signalled a role off half back as well. Certainly in the frame for Round 1, but i decided this was not a key factor. Like Hopper last year, this is for the next midfield era. My preference was Taranto. Bowes as a goal kicking mid is similar , albeit different in style. If he plays early i can send Steele to the midfield if needed so he helps team balance as well.

Hopefully ive picked a Rolls Royce.

There’s some great kids on the board. Enjoy the 1st round, guys.

@TrevorBix must be struggling with the concept of 20! There are still too many in his squad. He has dropped 2 and added one meaning his squad is now 22.

Bix - don’t forget you have your 2 traded players that must be counted.

You guys are all bastards. I think I know who I want to pick though - I’ll just have a quick look at the spreadsheet before I pull the trigger

Very happy with Brodie, really liked him before the actual draft and his performance against us a couple of weeks ago just locked him in in my mind. Thought he was a good chance to get through to five and frankly would have been pretty jammed if he wasn’t on the table because I hadn’t really thought too far ahead of him. I reckon he’ll play plenty of seniors this year too. Very happy

Flicked back and forth several times. Finally nailed it down to he and one other last night. Decided Bowes was the main target unless you guys pulled a rabbit. Hoped you’d pick early before i changed my mind again!! Lol.

He’s a scientist. Numbers mean little.
