1 & 2. Scully & Trengove

11. Black

18. Carlisle or Bastinac

34. Patrick

50. Grimes, Daw or best available in that order

The Demons could have traded for another top 20 pick off loading a 2 players to achieve this. That would get us a top 20 pick and the opportunity to use Pick 66 or another pick in the PSD. Bastinac will be a great player! Drafting him aswell as not missing out on 2 KP in the top 20 would have been super.

Hi All ... this is my first post on the boards. I thought I'd give nearest the pin a crack ...

1. Scully

2. Trengove

11. Talia

18. Melksham

34. Gawn

50. Thorp

Picks 1 and 2 are sorted so it's really 11 and 18 that will be most interesting. I went the U/18 carnival to watch a lot of these kids and Talia was a real standout from where I sat. Classy tall with great decision making and poise. Can play both CHB and CHF and will develop into a quality AFL player. I hope we don't pick Ball when it comes to the crunch at 18. He doesn't want to play for us and I believe there should still be an excellent prospect available who will become a long term gun player for the Dees. I like Jake Melksham if he's available - the guy is a Dal Santo clone with equally sublime skills. At 34 I think we should take a punt on a young ruckman and of those available I like the look of Gawn. Could become the next Sandliands tapping the ball down to Scully, Moloney and co. Lastly at pick 50, I reckon we give Mitch Thorp a second life at AFL as I think he's a genuine talent and would work well in a Watts-Thorpe-Jurrah forward line if he can get himself fully fit. He's only 23 and by all reports is training with hunger at passion down at the junction.

That's it then from me. Only 4 days to go!!

34- Griffiths

50- Thorp or Patrick

66- pass/PSD1- Joel McDonald.

I've changed mine too because it appears that we will not take Thorp in the PSD and I'm not sure about Patrick any more.

1 Sculley

2 Trengove

11 Tapscott/Jetta/Lucas

18 Panos

34 Grimes

50 Temel/Daw

PSD McDonald

I just have a feeling we won't take Ball, may be wrong but I reckon it's to flush out another club.

1 Jack Trengove

2 Tom Scully

11 Aaron Black

18 Luke Ball

34 Mitch Thorpe

50 Brock McCauley (although wouldn't mind seeing Patrick or Grimes drafted here, although expect us to take a ruckman considering the interest in Meeson)

PSD Joel Macdonald

End result is 3 mids, 2 young KPP's and 1 running defender and 1 ruckman

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
