Do the MFC get 2 first rounders for compensation? Will they be 2 end of first round mid first round?

Would the team with pick 1 in the 2012 draft consider trading 3 first round picks for the number one pick and MFC pick up Jack Viney with it's second round pick?

One mid first round and one pick immediately after MFC's first-round pick.

Interesting. We may be after an under 17 pick from GWS though.

According to Channel 10 sport, the AFL just announced we will get 2 first rounders as compensation. Um, 1 and 2 please.

“@AFL_PKeane: Melbourne will receive First Band Compensation - a First Round selection and a Mid-First Round selection for Tom Scully.”

Trade them both to St.Kilda for Goddard.

Let's tank and get pick 1 again.

Just heard this myself- good news --now it is up to B.P to gain best recruits once again.

So if we say finish 8th next year what picks would we get?

Because number 1 is a guaranteed keeper... wait, what?

Haven't we learnt anything?

If we tank again, we are done. We will be the undisputed joke of the competition- and it will be deserved!

Any teams want to trade an experienced leader for two high draft picks in a compromised draft?

The club has immense potential to bring in someone considerable. Look at teams like Freo, St. Kilda, Doggies. We can fill some current voids on our side with experienced players.

+ Ross Lyon = flag within 3 years.

Do it Dees.

Keep up..

Keep up..

Where are we off to?

Lyon apparently reported to be staying at Saints, Channel 10

Assuming no other team activates their own compensation picks, and Gold Coast don't get a PP:

- Pick 11 (mid first rd pick compo)

- Pick 12 (for finishing 8th)

- Pick 13 (first rd pick compo which comes after our 1st pick)

Think this is how it works, assuming mid first rd pick comes after all other team's picks who don't make finals...

I'd like to suggest we go harder @ the AFL demanding we get better, the first pick of 2012 to replace our priority pick, + another

You know the Blues & the Pies would, as did the Cats.

should try and trade one of them for Chris Dawes, he'd be a good fit, or another tall forward, maybe Sam reid?

Confirmed on AFL Website two first round picks we will come out the winner here, provided we use them wisely. We must leave them to 2012 though.

If we finish near the bottom next year, which I expect we will, we could finish up with, say pick 3 & 4 or picks 4 & 5 plus a pick at the end of the first round in 2012. That would be harder to predict as other clubs will be using their delayed compo picks in that year. But if the draft is as good as is expected we could have three top picks in the top 20, not sure if we will have to use one on Jack Viney but if we do it will be the last one in the first round, if not we get him as well.

You little beauty.

Hope MFC gets aggressive with these compo picks but remember that they can be used anytime within the next 5 years, therefore won't necessarily have to be used in a compromised draft.

Looks like any club with a comp pick will probably look to use in next year, though, as is meant to be a bumper draft. This in itself could devalue them if WB, Ade, Fre, Gee, GC etc all look to use their compo picks in the same 2012 draft.

I like the idea of keeping one for 2012 but looking to trade another to either bring in an experienced mid, or get our hands on a pick in the mini-draft (probably accompanied by a player).

Tom who? Seriously, forgotten about the kid already. As I'm sure most here have now.

do the doggie supporters feel duped now? compo for us was had to be bigger- given the #1 tag that accompanied the forgotten man. What did doggies get for Ward?

so typical melbourne haven't asked for more

Speaking of jokes...

You were joking? Oh

Still think we deserve more.

Cameron Schwab seems to reckon we will get compensation picks for "What's his face" that are along the the lines of what the Cats got for Gary Ablett - Hope he's right - thought he was quite impressive at the Melbourne press conferance btw - Our Club has shown a lot of class throughout this whole sorry saga and I'm quite proud of how we've handled it .

We were in a no win situation for most of the year and right at the end we could come out way on top esp if "Prima Donna Tom" has a shortened career due to his degenerative knee - I'll bet any money he reads these threads so we should let him have it !
