Does anybody think Marcus Picken (delisted by Bulldogs) is worth selecting with our final pick?
He would of course be insurance for the backline in the event of a horror-run with injuries. I beleive we passed on him under father-son rule in 1997, and chose James Wasley instead to give us some run. |

From what I have heard we will not use picks 64 and 80 and I highly doubt we would waste pick 35 on Marcus. There is better talent than him in the Pre-season draft also |

Why wouldn't we use our last 2 picks? Pre-Season Draft is looking a little boring at this stage, just a lot of hacks. _________________ "Every time we witness an injustice and do not act, we train our character to be passive in its presence." – Julian Assange |

Well for starters we only have 5 spots left on the list and 6 picks so 80 becomes irrelevent. Then if are are going to take a player from the pre-season draft which from all reports looks very likely we need to pass on pick 64 which would be a very low percentage of picking up a decent kid from there anyway in a shallow draft. |

If we pick up Marcus Picken we may as well book our September end of season trip now! _________________ Buon Giorno |

Hang on, I'm not totally sure how it works. But wouldn't Picken enter the Pre-season draft, and not the National Draft (usually the kids draft)? That means we won't use those picks, doesn't it? |

If we are to use a pick in the pre-season draft rather than the National we would use picks 17, 32, 35 and 38 and pass on pick 64 which becomes pick 15 in the National draft (effectively around 7 however). |

i think the rules are that delisted players cant go into the preseason draft only the national. preseason is a draft for out of contract players only |
