Luke Ball in the National Draft

Featured Replies

My understanding is that Ball, or his management have told other clubs that he will go overseas if they pick him. Risks a ban and draft-tampering allegation I believe.

My sources are good, but not primary.

Oh, and MFC will not be picking him. :)

 

They should ban him from the game if that's proven.

I doubt he or his management would be stupid enough to say something like that.

I wonder if he would actually follow through with that if someone picked him up. Astonishingly stupid if he did.

I thought that would classify as draft tampering.

If that is true, Ball is a massive tools & he should not have the privilege to wear the Red & Blue. What a [censored] bag. :angry:

It's quite ironic that people in this thread are condemning Ball for not speaking to other clubs (he is well within his rights as per Andy D) & thus draft tampering yet they actively supported a side, which laid down for draft picks.

And i cant believe you have nothing better to do in your life than constantly talk [censored] on a demons based forum.

Wait yes i can your a collinw#$d supporter.

No...let's be fair here. For someone who went from Broadmeadows Primary to Xavier College , he's done pretty well to find his way to a coherent website.

Yep, we tanked our arses off. And our reward is 10+ years worth of Jack Trengove. Oh how life is ever so sweet.

Also the irony of you complaining about our tanking when Andy D says we are quite within our rights to "experiment".

Lucky the top end talent is good in this draft so we won't waste our tanking pick on Dale Thomas.

Have a nice day - I know I'll enjoy November 26 2009,

Miracles do happen.

As usual you fudge the facts with your own bias, it is not the refusal to talk to other clubs that make it draft tampering, it is his connections putting it out there that he won,t play if he doesn,t get to the club of his choice that is the offence. Also wether we tanked or were merely experimenting , how the @#$$& would you know!

I have it on authority ( AD ) that tanking doesnt exist. Collingwood would appreciate that also no doubt. However draft tampering obviously does. Credit to Ball for wanting to choose, sympathy to him for wantig to play for Filth. I think should Ball ineed get to your lot then there will be cries of foul after the dust has settled and should he and his management be found to have committed tampering I hope the League comes down on him/them like a ton of bricks.

Looking forward to round 2 ;)

Careful bud. I made it out. Don't promote the stereotype.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
