I dont think we need an update every couple of picks. Just will draw the thread out longer than we need it.

    As a suggestion, perhaps after every round. Or at the top post of each page (if that's possible).... .

    Either way would work perfectly.

    Interesting tussle guys. Players and picks are at a premium. Still plenty of players on offer. Keep on juggling. Excruciating decision making this recruiting game - imagine doing it with 17-18 year olds come draft time, at least we know these guys have the form on the board so to speak.

    Interesting strategy re ruckmen. At least 6 picked already before the end of the 3rd round. I reckon there's >10 decent ruckmen and really it's daylight after Sandilands. I reckon you're guaranteed to get a decent ruckman.

    Not if you're the 10th person to pick a ruckman

    I reckon you'll still get a good one - I counted up 12 ruckmen I'd be happy to go to war with.

    The "plus one" realy give a safety margin here because if you've already selected a player from the sides with remaining decent ruckmen you've still got an out. This game will be tighter next year with 18 teams.

    I even thought about choosing Mumford at my 3rd pick & switching Kreuzer forward, just to make it harder on others.

    Happy how it's played out so far.

    I reckon Jolly runs second to Sandilands and then there's a gap. Particularly after his finals series. Was in Norm Smith calculations as well.

    No way.

    Without a hint of bias, I'd choose Jamar, Kreuzer & Mumford ahead of Jolly every time.

    I don't know if this is legal, but anyway...

    Corey Enright anyone?

    Would love him AND Bartel but KPP's look to be the priority for most ... and Geelong bats deep unlike some other teams ...

    Yeah, thanks mate. It's really great when everyone maybe has forgotten about someone and you interfere.

    Awesome. Bartel is still available too! Wanna point that out?

    I mean, I have a list of players I'm aiming to get, maybe I should just post it on here?

    • 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?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
