I like the rules as they are - what I don't like is constantly getting blamed for what my ute does.

The 'protocols' of snaring a ruckman in the first round (and basing your selections on numerical averages of players in certain position) was something which I challenged last year with the Hooley-Dooleys. Although I missed out on the final series, many of my theories proved to be useful ones.

For instance, I grabbed Josh Fraser late in the selections because of how I know Malthouse likes to move the ball up the ground. Josh would pick up the odd ruck tap, but it was his positioning as a marking link on the wing that secured a lot of points for the Hooleys. There was also the fortuitous injury to Bomber big man Hille which brought the Dooley Paddy Ryder into the foreground for a great deal of the year. I avoided the ruckman in the early rounds (they're all white fellas anyway) but ended up doing alright over the course of the year.

There can be many surprises and unexpected turns in the present set up - for what it's worth, I like it.

Nelson, for your information, I've heard Mrs HG make distasteful remarks about how Mrs Nelson's bottom looks in certain clothes - she may want to reconsider the veracity of opinions about my ute before the draft order is set.

I have just emailed 2009 Player stats to all players from whom I have received a confirmation email.

Still waiting on Number 29, Superswede and Blockerhall to send an email to [email protected] confirming your intentions.

My hot-arsed wife (in certain clothes only) will assist with the drawing of the draft order tonight.

Wow when I start to look into this properly I can see how it is going to take ages to sort through the draft.
As I said in my email to you Nelson I am unfortunately working a 12hr nightshift on tuesday night that I cant get out of, luckily it looks like being a very slack night and it is a job that allows me to sit infront of the computer all night if nothing to much goes wrong and can give the draft 95% of my attention.
If things go pear shaped though........
It's pretty hard to compile a list of players for someone else to select for me incase that happens (if I'm in this I want to pick my players), so if Davo or anyone would still like to have a go they can take my spot.
If not I will still give it a go.

Jesus H Frickin, dude, the last thing the DuFFLe needs is anyone taking it seriously. Just jot down your best rucks, then a few decent all rounders and a couple of mark hungry nancy boys. Once you know where you are in the draft order, plan a few selections based on who you reckon will still be available. By the 3rd round or so, the red will have you so relaxed you won't care who you draft but you'll still be able to laugh at anyone choosing an Ooftit.

Davo, if you want alvn pple's spot then say so now and email me.

This, unfortunately, is the draft order.

i - Polly
ii - Hypen
iii - Slammen
iv - Rabbit
v - Nelson
vi - Docker_man
vii - Bizkit
viii - Mellors
ix - Clive4life
x - Matty T
xi - Blockerhall
xii - Mercury
xiii - Oos
xiv - Number 29
xv - Davo
xvi - Superswede

Probably the worst draft I've seen in a long time. But I guess the number one pick could be anybody!

Draft night is Tuesday 6:30pm in the Dockerland chatroom, be there.

Number ix. Right in the middle.

I can see i'm going to need to use all my DuFFLe skill to get me out of this Kerfuffle.

What are the chances of sandi being around at pick ix?
