As much as I want Lynch, I get the feeling we'll end up with Smedts or Smith and be hoping like hell we get Luke Mitchell at our 2nd pick.

Our second pick, while still valuable looks likely to slip back further as a lot of teams are considering using their compensation picks in this draft.

Although they will come later than in an uncompromised draft, such is the strength and depth of this draft, that they see it as the best option to use it now.

JCB31, who could we get with pick 18?

Fitzgerald but we do not have a pick then- we have pick 12 - and we will pick up a very good player- may even be a smokie.

I think that was written in the context of the trading period, where it was suggested that north wanted to switch 1st Rnd picks with us.

I hope we do get Fitzgerald later, @ 49 or so.

I'm actually beginning to think he'll end up a bit like a much taller Bate.

Runs and runs and runs and is quite fast once he builds up some steam, but not especially quick off the mark.

He does seem to recover quite well though.

Still a very good prospect.

Absolute Gun - with his height and agillity will be headed for the GC IMHO.

Bate and agile?

I'm struggling here ...

His 20m sprint time is a real X against him.

I bet a lot of recruiters were really disappointed with him coming dead last.

These days the first 20m are critical for a forward, in order to get distance between you and the defender on the lead and also in order to chase the ball once it hits the ground.

Quayle seems to think there may be a few out of the box early on, with Lynch a chance to fall to our pick.

Atley most likely to Essendon at 8, with GC to likely select Caddy at 7 or else bombers will pounce.

We may get the KPF at 12 that we want after all.

She's also saying there's whispers of Conca at 6 to the tiges..?

Incredible if they do.

Solid player, but a bit vanilla for me.

I just don't know about Lynch, does anyone get 'Ben McEvoy' vibes with the footage they have seen?

Mate, you were too :)

GC will pick him at 9-11. No doubting it.

No, sorry, my comment back then had nothing to do with Lynch at all...

But simply at that time we were all talking about a possible switch from Pick 12 to pick 18 with North. So I asked JCB what he thought may be around at Pick 18 (Norths) this year.

Probably off the Lynch topic a little.

Not necessarily.

I'm happy to go for a mid, but if a great tall prospect slides to 12 that should by all rights be taken earlier, wouldn't that seem a perfect outcome?

I will honestly be happy no matter who we choose, even if it's Watson.

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
