Title: Anyone interested in doing a phantom draft?
Post by: one-eyed on October 27, 2011, 03:05:11 AM
With the draft just 4 weeks away, anyone interested in doing our own phantom draft in the lead up to it?

We've done one over the past couple of years and it was good to read people's thoughts on the various kids and where they might end up. You don't need to think you need to have great knowledge about the kids available. It's just meant to be a bit of fun and there's plenty of resources (I'll post links to them before we start) around to help you out.

Anyway just post here and the club you'd like to take if you're interested. The more the merrier (up to a max. of 18 )  :).

I wonder who will be game and be busy with all of GWS's picks? lol

Good luck tiga with the Tiges. In the past whoever had Richmond needed a whip and chair to handle OERites' responses :lol.

Expect the following replies for pick 15 tiga....

"You have no idea!"

"He's a dud!"

"Thank god you're not our recruiter!"

"No way will this kid go before [insert other poster's favourite draftee]"

"Have you actually seen any of these kids play?"

"Are you on drugs?"

"The guy who does the BF phantom draft has that kid at pick 76 so you must be wrong"

"I've watched this kid's 15 second youtube video clip and he can't play"

"Did Plough/Spud/Miller/Greg Beck select that kid?"

"I've seen this kid play seniors once for [insert local country football club] and he didn't get anywhere near it"

"Remind me not to value your football knowledge ever again"

"He's just a [insert one of JON/Tambling/Schulz/..../Banik/Lounder] clone!"

"If Richmond picks this kid up I won't be buying a membership next year!"

 ;D

LOL MT. Just as a heads up, I'll be using pick 15 as a speculative pick on a young Ruckman. I heard Gus has a younger Brother coming through ;D

I personally like the ""I've seen this kid play seniors once for [insert local country football club] and he didn't get anywhere near it" response. I think Ill be using that one when Tiga fires the first shot at 15. I think Ill be going with "the guy who does the BF phantom draft has that kid at pick 76 so you must be wrong" for Tiga's selection at 26. Finally I think I will conclude my analysis of Tigas selections with "Have you actually seen any of these kids play?" with our 3rd round selection and that should just about cover it.  ;D

A death wish tiga  :lol

I think there was a movie on TV this week based on Gus and his younger brother rucking together - dumb and dumber lol.



Still 7 spots to go. We won't bite  ;D. If no one else wants to join in we'll ask ppl to double up with two clubs.
