^I assume you are two hours in front of us over in NZ because the live streamimg starts at 6pm over here in OZ (AEST).

I believe the draft begins at either 7pm or 7:30pm over here so you should be tuning in by 9pm over in NZ to be sure you don't miss anything.

6. Scharenberg (If not Scharenberg then Aish)
10. Lennon (I want this kid so badly, he's going to be the steal of the draft)
65. Conlon

I'm actually feeling rather nervous about this draft. It's so crucial we get this right. I'll be gutted if we can't get Lennon tonight. He's going to be a future superstar. A lot of phantom drafts have him going to either Richmond at pick 12 or Collingwood at pick 10. It wouldn't shock me if he went higher than pick 10 though.

They did a live cross to bucks on ten news and when the reporter asked him about Aish he got that mischievous grin on his face that he often gets.

You can read that howver you like I guess but I'm starting to feel we are going to go for Aish over the berg.

In Hine we trust.

I bet that grin just meant, "wouldn't you like to know."

All I am confident about is that whoever we get, they will be touted as the steals of the draft, regardless of who it turns out to be

SEN, ABC, 5AA (if insane)

All available at the click of a button on AFL site though it might be better to stream via there own site (assuming that you don't have to switch over to afl.com at 7pm).

i guess. i still can't really get over what appears to be daylight robbery going on. no team in the top 8 should be afforded this luxury.
Sounds like you feel guilty mate :)

The system has been contrived and it is what it is. Our staff is making the system work for them and doing it really, really well.

The playing field isn't level and we are running up hill. Exploiting the "vagaries" of the system is the only way we are going to be able to compete against our dark overlords.

A core group of players including these two guys, Grundy, JT, Broomhead, Adams, Kennedy, Williams, Seedsman and Witts are going to wreak a decade's worth of destruction on opposition teams and it was assembled while we played finals every year.

Can you imagine what type of supporter you'd have to be to think Bucks wasn't on the right track?
no conscience on this one. i just find it laughable that we have done so well.

Scharenberg/Aish
Aish/Salem

But really, I won't be disappointed with any combo - ok, slightly disappointed with Scharenberg/Lennon (I want a mid, not two flankers).

As a recruiter from one of the clubs said yesterday, this is a very even draft over the top 12 or so, and I'll back Hine and co to pick the two that best fit into our side.

My top 5, in order (ruling out Boyd, Kelly, Billings):

Bontempelii
Aish
Scharenberg
Salem
Lennon

Twomey reporting confirmation that its between Scharenberg/Aish at 6 Salem/Freeman at 10.

With two midfielders named as the choice for pick 10 I suspect Scharenberg is our target for 6 8) with Aish the back up plan should he go earlier than expected.

Disappointed that we probably wont go for Lennon though if Scharenberg isn't available at 6 he's still a chance for pick 10.
