Jags receive 2nd pick, 4th and 6th rounder

Browns receive 5th pick, 2nd and 4th rounders 25 and. 2026 1st rounder

Les Sneads protege strikes on his first Draft, Jags take Hunter.

We haven't seen someone like Hunter for a long time. Someone who can play both sides and very well.

Going to be an exciting watch, I doubt he'll be a WR and CB his whole career but it's interesting.

    I reckon he starts as a WR with some small goes at CB.

    Arch Manning is already the forbidden fruit for next years draft, but there is talk he won’t nominate for next years draft and only has 230 snaps as a collegian QB.

    Sanders finally drafted by Browns.

    Funny, how his old man said that no young QB would want to be drafted there.

    Yeah, @Gorgoroth , it's becoming quite the circus with Rodgers

    I'd like him to do well and not spoil his legacy but he's definitely not the player he once was

    It might work under Tomlin at the Steelers ... but it's a big if. The outcome may end up being more on the average/ordinary side of things

    But the Steelers made the playoffs last season so that would be the minimum standard you'd imagine

    I have no idea how this one will turn out, Gorg's post sums it up beautifully at first glance.

    But one thing I think works in his favour is that the Steelers do play a fast style offense and use no huddles quite a bit. Could be a fun watch.

    The other thing with Aaron is that while he obviously doesn't move the way he used to, he still throws the ball really well. I saw a short clip of their minicamp and he's still zipping 30 yarders in at speed. If he's got enough decent route runners around him (Metcalf, Austin and Washington nothing to sneeze at) then he might not even need to be the best version for it to work.

    I can see it being like the Favre season in Minnesota, but it could also be a blip on the screen.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
