those are the sort of questions you never want answered. but probably. normally the hookers would be flying off the board...

It's a wasteland.  I just picked Lucy.  While I'm not happy with that pick and especially so early, it means I only need one more edge and there really isn't a lot going on, especially with so much uncertainty on positions this far out.

I think locks going from 2RF to MID has really altered the position values in draft. Usually you can wait on 2RF and pick up value in the mid to later rounds. But with edge it’s looking fucking grim.

I’m honestly shocked that Macca, Mahoney & Friend are all still available.

I was part of it, but I was shocked ARey, Hunt and Wighton got picked before Munster. Thinking Hunt may have been selected as hooker, though?

Yeah, I don't know what to do with edge possibilities. It was a position I'd bookmarked (alongside others) but Friz was the last one I had any interest in and he got snapped up in the last pick before my last go. Part of me wondered how long the draft will last, and if it'll make it to TLT, lol, where I could make my edge picks then. Unlikely? I thought so too.

DPP swayed me towards him just over Munster.  We'll see.  I see him having a decent year back in his preferred position, coach he likes and playing with Macca again.  More a gut call.

Teeth Eater wrote:

Yeah, I don't mind it at all. I was reasoning I might just get a bit more consistency from ARey too. Just looks odd to me on paper, that guys like this go before Munster.

Yep friz was definitely the last of that edge tier. He and Murray a few picks earlier could be crucial picks.

I think it's just the format.  I like the ARey pick too mate.  Picking Lucy over some of the guys still there is a forehead slap moment but a few that have no edge players yet could struggle later on.

Honestly couldn't tell you, mate. This is the guy who just picked ARey. I regretted it as I hit enter amidst a few hectic hours of home life. Should have waited a few more mins, and I could have given it a few minutes of thought.

Is Watson your hooker? I don't mind it. If everything goes according to plan and speculation, dude could be one of the highest scorers of the season.

It's such a long way back around to our side of the pick, I am not sure he'd have still been there. So hard to tell what everyone's thinking.

General question - when you see your name come up in the draft, in the snake format, is it a preference to either be at the start or the end (1st and 2nd and 9th & 10th)? Seems those turnarounds where you basically get two pics in a row is a sweet deal. But I don't know if it just seems that way because I'm not part of it.

I probably wouldn't have picked him but if he starts mate, you're laughing.  DPP too.

Was going to take him. Rather Watson due to play style why I grabbed him before
