Brad Green and Cameron Bruce were picked up in the 1999 draft. I was wondering who the others were and if anyone out there knows the actual order of picks. I know Bruce was a late pick but I can't remember where the others sat in order. Thanks anyone!

Trades:

Troy Longmuir to Fremantle for Pick 19

Steven Powell from Footscray for Pick 35

Mathew Bishop to Port Adelaide for Pick 42

Pick 19: Brad Green

Pick 20: Paul Wheatley

Pick 42: Michael Clark

Pick 50: Mathew Whelan

Pick 63: Shannon O'Brian

Bruce was from Melbourne High Old Boys wasn't he?

Yes, but Nugget is right also. Bruce (along with Peverill incidentally) were on Melbourne's supplementary list in 1999 and played very well in our reserves.

Many thanks Nugget. We didn't see much of Michael Clark,Shannon O'Brien (who?),and Steven Pitt did we? One trade that was bad was Mathew Bishop for Clark.As we all know Bishop was a great defender in the strong Port Adelaide sides. Also James Cook was a bit of a flop. I thought Paul Wheatley was around this time but had forgotten Matty Whelan. Just goes to show how high number drafts can be so valuable. eg Bruce- Twice runner up B&F, and now B&F. Also remember Dean Kemp of WC being in the 70's and what a great player he was. We haven't been too lucky with our EARLY draft picks recently ( with a couple of exceptions of course). Let's hope that this year will be vastly different. Once again thanks for your research.

Bruce was originally a supplementry listed player and the club made a decision between him and Peverill on who to draft.

For prvious drafts I use footywire.com, very comprehensive and you can do searches by club or by the year of the draft.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.
