OER PHANTOM DRAFT

[tigersalive]

Infamy, I notice you only have one team, would you like to take over duties for the Richmond draft picks?

Infamy, I notice you only have one team, would you like to take over duties for the Richmond draft picks? 

He will probably want a repick done of the Tiger choices 

[Infamy]

Nah thats fine, I'm happy with my one team
Chuck just took my bloody pick, I had the post typed out and ready to go for Gaertner too
So now I need to think of someone else, I thought taking him with my next pick was going to be a bit of a reach as it was. Spewin'!!

Difference between him and Bradley is Gaertner is one of the fastest kids in the draft at 198cm

back to take my pick in a bit, need to pick someone else

[Infamy]

35 - Matthew Deboer 187cm 85kg hard running midfielder from WA. Big bodied and wins plenty of the ball and is the prototype height for a midfielder these days at 6'2". Can't see him falling this low in the real thing.
Melbourne now have an elite key forward, super quick midfielder who is good defensively, versatile kpp who can play forward or back and now a big bodied clearance midfielder.

Next up is Ball!
36. West Coast

[Ball!]

36) West Coast - Dan Hannebery 182cm 75kg

So far we have NicNat, Walters and Johnston

A ruck,  KP foward and a small foward/mid

Time to bolster the midfield. Hannebery will play alot of WAFL next year but will slip into our best 22 in '10. Absolute steel here. Would have also liked Pearce but he might survive till the next round

[Chuck17]

37. Fremantle Jarrad Redden 202cm 88kg ruck

With Warnock having left and Sandilands about to turn 26 in a couple of weeks Harvey has said a ruck option will be looked at in the draft.

[tigersalive]

Pick 38 - Port Adelaide - James Strauss -185cm, 82kg

I decided to go for the bottom age midfielder that has a great engine and is very talented in traffic and is just as confortable and able to run past and receive the ball with a good kick on him.  Will complement the plethora of outside mids at Port Adelaide with his strong ball winning ability.

TA have another go. Dan Hannebery was picked up by Ball! for the Eagles.

[tigersalive]

Whoops.   

Ok all fixed.

39. Geelong - Paul Cahill (192cm, 80kg)

Gone for another tall in South Aussie CHF/FF Cahill. Clean hands, athletic and quick on the lead and can kick a few goals.

[wayne]

#40 Carlton - Nick Heyne

We got a KPP with number 6, I have tried to cover another deficiency with #40.

Fev needs help in the forward line and Nick Heyne can slot into a forward pocket and eventually a HFF.

He's a good grab and a smart player.

[tiga]

Crikey!!! waited ages for pick 30 to come up now all I get is the dregs

Sydney Swans Pick 30.....Jim Boogie or an autopick.....no I'll take Steven Motlop. No idea why....Probably because I've hit the hard bits at the bottom of the popcorn bowl.

Worst pick 30 in History!!!  Might turn out to be a gun!!

41. Brisbane

[Fluffy Tiger]

0k Voss has taken mids so far so it time for a Big as a project player. Most of the ones I had in mind have gone in the last few picks so

Pick 41: Brisbane    Andrew Browne

At 202cm 106kg this kid is huge already and who knows what he could end up at. As I said its a punt and a project but it just might pay off big time.
