Boy Wonder Bundy, you've done it again

Post: # 494265Post barks4eva »

Rendell read out the wrong number in the draft and the AFL broke the rules by allowing Adelaide two bites at the cherry :roll:

It's easy to see why Thomas maximus refused all attempts to install Matthew Drain into our football department in 2005 and instead insisted on giving Rendell even more tasks :roll:

Afterall it was Rendell's decision to draft Brooks, which boy wonder bundy and Thomas Maximus decided to give up pick 6 and 31 for :roll:

It was also Boy wonder Bundy's decision to draft Ackland and Guerra :roll:

Don't ya just miss the dynamic duo?

What a fair dinkum bunch of cabbages

Mores to the point why did the AFL allow Port to keep the pick when they had specifically read out the rules that if you make a mistake you forfeit the pick.

This is amazing and show that it is always amateur hour at the AFL :roll: :roll:

Can anyone categorically say or post something that says without doubt that an incorrectly read out number means a forfeited pick?

I did listen to them read out the rules before the start of the draft & that is what they said!!! I think it would've been a tad harsh though!!!
But they are the rules!!! :? :?

The hosts of the draft were certain that in the strictest sense of the rules, incorrectly reading the players number, name or club means a forfeited pick.

Demitriou questioned the number after the following pick by Collingwood (?) and Rendell corrected the number asking if the pick remained. Demitriou stated it did and asked Collingwood if they wished to change their pick, they didn't and the draft continued from there.

AFl have rules, they just interpret them to suit their agenda in any particular situation - see Bakes, see Sirengate....etc, etc.

Agree...would have been interesting if the error was us not adelaide. My guess is we would have missed out.

I don't think I've ever replied to one of b4e's rants, but seriously, don't you get tired of sniping at those you don't like instead of celebrating with those you do?


Still waiting for closure ... if you get my drift.

It would have been a costly mistake had the AFL decide to invoke the rules of the draft.

However, common sense did prevail, which is a suprise when the AFL is involved!!

Ackland's first year for us was amazing. Have you forgotten already? He was great. Go watch the highlights DVD he is on. Guerra had some good matches for us too and is now a first 22 player for Hawthorn, who had a better season than we did. I don't blame them for grabbing those players at all. Albeit, their second seasons were average for us but you can see why they drafted them. Ackland has been ok at Carlton, and I highly suspect that he might just up the anti this year. We all hate Ackland cause he deserted us, but if he was that much of a bad player, why would we care that he left?

If collingwood had read out the right player and number, i'm sure the afl would have let them have it, leaving port with nothing.

B4e I'm begging you, for your sake as well as ours, get yourself a pet, read a book, go for a walk, just PLEASE find a hobby besides filling our forum with your vicious sniping.

I think you will find it will do you (and the rest of us) the world of good.

Perhaps B4E could buy a horse and ride off into the sunset reading the post reply's to his threads until it is out of service area then at last he/she would be at peace with the Saintsational forum.

Poor bloody horse :wink:

B4E does have a point though :lol:
