I had my eye on Jolly, I think you have done well to pick him up.

His late season form was great, early he was useless so his average stats for the year probably bring his projected ranking down a bit.

I had him as the second best ruck available.

Please answer my question re the team and how do I pick manually. I was on some automatic if ranks thing last night-if I want to switch to manual-does that mean I just put the players name in and it will take that player?

Next year I suggest we make the time limit on drafting to 5 minutes. Would then get it over with in two nights.Great game and thanks JA.

    I think you' right 5 minutes would be much better.

    Re drafting, you may need to change your drafting preferences to "manual" for the option; when my pick.

    Thanks mate- you have done a stirling job but I think I have sung Silent night 30 times whilst waiting for my pick and I am still goin. Next year hey? Well done my friend -excellent job.

    Can we switch to 5 minutes tomorrow-I will be in Manila- dreaming about the slaughter by High Tower in the opening game. If we didn't have the auto for SO LONG we would be marching through.What does others think?

    Alright, didn't realise the 15 minute rule had come back.

    Still happy with Byrnes though.

    If anyone knows they're going to be away from their computer then setting their preferences to auto pick would speed things up.

    I think i can change the time limit during the draft, so if it's not moving quickly I can change it. Might [censored] a few people off who thought it was 15 minutes though.

    just do it, if people havnt made there pick by 5 mins or 10 mins, there not gonna make it, and it just auto picks anyway, we're into the 7th round not as if we're gonna miss out on that "star" player, although someone did shark pettard on me lol

    Yeah I agree Scarlo.

    It's not like people need their full 15 minutes, if they're taking the full 15 it's pretty much been because they haven't been around it seems.

    Okay unless I get a reasonable objection before 6:30 I'll drop it to 5 minutes (if I can change it).

    You wouldn't have treated him right. I'll at least call him by his real name B)

    (Off everyone else's bandwagon, really unsure how my team will go - leaning towards not very well!)

    My computer never ever works when I really want it to.

    For the third time, I'm still happy with my auto-selection, I was most likely getting Walker anyway...

    took a couple of risk's, i think watts will actually score quite well but mcintosh is injured until rnd 4 with barlow also injured for the first 4 rounds.(also i had to have a melbourne player in there somewhere!)

    Barlow is a gun,

    On averages he's the number 1 ranked player from 2010.

    I get the feeling that byes are going to make this very tricky.

    Definitely. Have to sacrifice a player you might want in the interests of an even spread among clubs.

    Tail end of the draft now.

    If you're done for the night and are checking out, please set your prefernces to auutopick before you leave, this way the rest of us can be done quicker.

    someone happy, but also a bit frustrated, to see the preference picks i got, although it means that the players i had ranked higher, were taken and i would have probably picked them anyway

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
