LFFL LFFL Draft Discussion

S T E A L for Skooks.

Simmonds? Gun ruckman?

Try banged up veteran pile of dog terd. I was thinking I may take him as my 2nd ruckman in Round 19.

Simmonds is average.

Skooks ya did well with cloke. Was hoping he would sneak through to my next pick. However not to be.

 

[amos]

Simmonds will go alright. No worse than anyone else in the avalanche but I doubt he'll touch his 2006 form. He gets a crapload of marks and kicks the odd sausage though. Add another 25 point ruckman to the pile.

 

[BlueZippy]

In 2006 Simmonds averaged 18.4 hit outs and 1.2 goals per game. He probably wont do that again but he's the best ruckman available.

He's better than Josh Fraser who went a lot earlier than him...

 

[macca69]

Simmonds is certainly worth a punt this late.

He dominated LFFL in 2006.

 

[Doug_Hondo]

Simmonds is 196 cm too short now.... wont get enough hit outs and not too mention has a few over hanging injury concerns....

 

[High Ryder]

gun pick Skooks.

Where is Dumes the angry bast**d

haha

Simmonds is averaged eh?

Well he somehow managed to average 35 in 2006. Sandi averaged 35 last yr and Skooks took him in the first round. Simmonds = STEAL. He had a broken ankle and a ****en pulmonary embolus, forgive him if he didn't repeat his AA form from a yr prior.

Will he repeat 2006? Unlikely, but if he is a shadow of his former self then i'll have got a steal. Considering i have Fev + Lloyd. I dont NEED Simmonds to become truly elite again. Of course if he does, then look out.

Sandi averaged 36 excuse me.

Simmonds will average 30 AT BEST.

Most likely 25 playing only 15 games.

Yep very average. Hes to short, kicks the occasional goal and thats about it. Make no mistake he would have been a good pick in a few rounds time, but i think you took him to early.

BTW Sandilands is the tallest bloke going around. He will score you 30 odd points in hit outs. You are relying on simmo around the ground.

I wasn't aware that Simmonds had shrunk since 2006.

 

[amos]

I think it happens when you get older, FL

 

[rizzo]

I wasn't aware that Simmonds had shrunk since 2006.

06 was a stand out year. at 30 you would think he has well and truly past his best. The question is with Simmonds is can he get around like he did in 06? How will his clots in his lungs go. Its all second guessing.

But ay, its up to you taking him this early.

Where is Dumes the angry bast**d

F*** you dude.

You trying to make me angrier. I just had to take Ben Hudson as a ruckman, it don't get any worse than that.

Wated pick, Dumes. You could've got a spastard like that 5 rounds later. Worst pick of the draft so far.

now we have to wait for another slow person on Broadbridge

I paniced.

Can I change it?

 

[dumesny1]

There must be a rule where you can change your pick before the next bloke makes his selection.



If there isn't surely Skooks can create one.

He could call it the "dumbsny Rule"

 

[amos]

There's not. Skooks has been unbelievably anal about this rule since LFFL's inception.

Fair enough too. Noone is holding a gun to your head when you type in your pick. You need to be sure of it when you press Submit. After that, bad luck if you get buyer's remorse.

 

[macca69]

Dumes, Xie is a coach that's right into games like this. Still, once 6 hits, i'm invoking the three pick penalty to him.

As for the top 12, it should've been;

1) Mathew Pavlich
2) Dean Cox
3) Nick Riewoldt
4) Jon Brown
5) Jimmy Bartel
6) (Yet to be picked)
7) Kane Cornes
8) (Yet to be picked)
9) (Yet to be picked)
10) Brendan Fevola
11) Lance Franklin
12) Aaron Sandilands

So who are the 3 'yet to be picked's Amos?

 

[David Villa]

Next someone will take Crawford and we'll have the suspended midfield of Hawthorn complete. David Villa, probably - loves the Hank.

Well, you got that right. Greatest human being in the world bar David Villa of course.

Simmonds is a 'meh' pick. If he's not injured he's probably worth pick 45. Not a steal though.

And **** you skooks...
