Fair gamble on Sellar. Fact is your odds are between slim and none of picking up a decent kid that late.

Thin draft.

Disagree thats where Mcdonald was taken last year, good players make it through to the rookie draft, 50 is like just over half way through the draft.

Also James McDonald is now the oldest player ever to be drafted!!!

Would have loved Manson - can't believe he wasnt taken at all ... I was wrong.

    "I know Tynan was one player the recruiting team honed in on at No.36. There was a feeling he may not be there though in some respects." MB

    First Draft cliche for MFC.

    If Tynan was strongly considered for pick 36, why did it take so long/have to take extra time to pick Tynan when pick 52 came up.

    Barry Prendergast was interviewed on SEN and ... he sounded happy.

     

    He said there were diverse opinions opinons about the draft and so clubs approached their selections differently.

     

    In previous years there was an element of picking out needs but tonight we pretty much went for the best player at the picks we had.

     

    Rory Taggert is a big bodied midfielder that we were looking for and we're happy with him.

     

    Josh Tynan is a half back similar in many ways to Jack Grimes and this clould lead to us using Grimes in the midfield.

     

    James Sellar was in the demographic that we wanted - mature talls and Sellar and Mitch Clark have done that for us. Sellar has some versatility and is happy to come to Melbourne. The change of scenery gives him an opportunity.

    What a shock (twice)!

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
