Ok, assuming we end up with picks 1 and 3 what do we go get? Pick 1 ( Scully) pick 3 (Trengrove, Lucas, Butcher) I think we should get another quality speedy midfielder, cuz lets face it all top teams at least have 2 gun midfielders in there side.

Geelong- Ablett, Bartel

Saints- Montagna, Hayes

Hawks- Mitchell, Hodge

Dogs- Cooney Griffen

Pies- Pendlebury, Swan

Blues- Judd, Murphy

Thoughts??

    I think you missed out a couple... lets say at least 4 gun midfielders in the top teams, even more.

    Geelong- Ablett, Bartel, Selwood, Corey, Chapman, Enright, Kelly, Johnson,

    Saints- Montagna, Hayes, Dal Santo, Goddard, Ball, Jones,

    Hawks- Mitchell, Hodge, Bateman, Sewell, Rioli

    Dogs- Cooney, Griffen, Cross, Boyd, Higgins,

    Pies- Pendlebury, Swan, Davis, Didak,

    Blues- Judd, Murphy, Gibbs, Stevens, Scotland, Simpson

    Either way, the general consensus now seems to be that we'd get a midfielder anyway, ie. the best available.

    Well Trengove recently was BOG a few weeks back, and then again this weekend in the SANFL for Sturt. Wouldn't mind taking him with our no.2 pick.

    Its between him and Morabito for no. 2.

    I'm starting to think Lewis Jetta will go a lot earlier than anyone expects.

    He looks to me like a better version of Stephen Hill.

    Im too nervous to talk about this until r22 when we have secured the priority pick...

    "AFL recruiters have heaped praise on Prince Alfred College gun Jack Trengove saying he could go anywhere in the top 10 of this year's National Draft. "

    Thanks for that.

    Trengove: - "I would like to stay in South Australia but, in saying that, I would not mind the challenge of playing with an interstate club," he said

    Remember that Blease & Strauss will be virtually new draft picks next year. That makes 4 new mids all with massive potential, and best of all, all great disposal skills.

    Look at the Cats they have a heap of A grade midfielders with some average tall forwards, we will have Watts, need 2 elite mids.

    Both players will play most in space, maybe can step through play "inside", if we're lucky.

    But we need elites who can play/step through traffic with the pill,,,, & kick well.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
