2009 Draft

Due to the draft cut off age being moved from 30 April 1992 to 31 December 1991, the 2009 Draft has only 66% of candidates compared to last year. In 2009, teams get first crack at players who were born between 1 May 1991 - to 31 December 1991.

Therefore we have to be smart and not see pick 34 this year, as equivalent to pick 34 in 2008.

The 2009 pick 34 is equivalent to about pick 50 last year. I think the Dees will only use 4 draft picks this year.

I therefore suggest we trade either pick 18 or pick 34 for a decent player in the age brackets that we are developing. Blokes like Mitchell Thorpe or Ben Reid from Collingwood might be a chance.

If we have a smokie we'll still be able to snap them up with pick 50.

Then hopefully we can get a gun out of contract player our PSD pick 1. I think players will be keen to come to Melbourne now as most of the hard work has been done. Success isnt so far away.

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG after a dismal performance in Gather Round to face the reigning dual Premiers Brisbane. What do expect to see from the Dees today?

    • PREVIEW: Brisbane

      They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.

      The Demons return to Melbourne and the hallowed turf of the MCG where they face dual reigning Premiers Brisbane on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      Melbourne’s much vaunted finishing power evaporated at Adelaide Oval on Saturday afternoon, exposed for the third time in four years by its Essendon Gather Round hoodoo.

      From knocking off a Premiership contender to getting embarrassed by the winless Bombers who were on a 17 game losing streak .... Welcome Back MFCSS.
