Also don’t have to worry about fitness!

“Can you run?”
“One way, yes, then I get a bit pooped”
“Congratulations - welcome aboard”

Any idea why players are forced to nominate and by a due date? Why can’t they be drafted in like the old days?

“and please come join our leadership group”

Nah, that’s only for those who have elite ‘standing still as the ball is kicked out from a behind’ skills

They only have to learn Plan A, so there’s that.

When is the actual day the draft is happening?

Monday, I believe.

Well, that gives us time for Zerrett to go off in the 2nd qtr tomorrow with a limp, the club medical staff to assure us on Monday that it’s a twinge and he’ll be back next week, and us to miss the deadline before we realise on Thursday that he’s done a hammy off the bone and will miss the rest of the year…

“For sale: baby shoes. Never worn” isn’t a patch on “Spot available: Zach Merrett’s. Hamstring torn.”

Can you imagine if we just read out ‘H.Hocking and J.Merett’ as our first two picks. Blitz wouldn’t survive.

l have heard that name mentioned as being of interest to Essendon in the local media here. Make of that what you will.

I knew this was coming.
