I did a 12 team draft over the last week or so but I cannot seem to find where the draft picks have gone. If someone can tell me where to get them from I will post them.
It's one of several useful features they thoughtlessly removed in last year's refresh. If you want a record of your picks you have to copy them yourself before the draft ends.

Just to confirm, do we have unlimited trades right up till the bounce of the Geelong vs Hawthorn game? Of course all other teams will be locked out by then though.

As my team comes to completion I again lament the demise of key position forwards as far as their fantasy footy relevance. I wrote a small comment about Gunston a little earlier and arguable he is in that bracket, and that brought the thought again to the fore for me. It could be said that making the fantasy game into 20 midfielders and 2 rucks is lacking something.
Whilst it is fair to say that Swan, Lids, Gray, Martin, and co play a bit forward, they are not forwards in the sense of the word. My call to the fantasy game makers is to consider bringing back the relevance of Hawkins, Cloke, Roughead, Westoff, Petrie types in fantasy by not having so many M/F's. They are almost a totally ignored bracket of players. Just my brief thoughts.

Question? How do i add a pick to my profile?
Click on 'Settings' on the top right.
Then in menu on left side click on 'Edit Avatar'.
Then upload a pic. You will need the pic to be small, trial and error till You get the right size, off memory has to be 75 by 75 pixels.

His exact quote is this:

“I’m finding that with the rotation policy staying out at the ground longer is more beneficial, So if I can rest forward and take some marks and kick some goals, it adds a different dynamic to my game.”

He'll rest up forward and kick more goals. "When used as a target inside 50 the team retained possession 81% of the time - ranked number 1 of the top 150 targets inside 50 and 7% higher than the next best target."

I think you can address it without touching positions. As the game has evolved, possession counts have gone up while scores have gone down. But possessions don't win games unless they lead to scoring shots. Ergo, perhaps goals should be worth more in SC terms.

Yep, and you could bump up contested marks and marks inside 50 as well.

When a good fwd kicks 5+ goals they generally score well anyway. Jjk last year kicked 10 or the year before and think scored 180+ they can't do this every week. Think fwds are fine the way they are. They are just not consistant enough to warrant selection. But think should be more of a genuine line selection ex full Foward must be a full Foward or at least play there. If it starts going this way it becomes really hard and teams become a lot more cookie cutter than already. If they took Gray, Goddard, Bartel, lids, dusty, swan from the fwd line would prob make the game alot more difficult and less predictable
