Father son drafting rules

Viney+Brayshaw+Hogan=Flag
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

Is it possible to arrange a trade deal?

Assume GWS and GC finish below us on the ladder.

In return for GWS and GC not bidding for Viney, we agree to trade someone like Watts, Garland, Morton or Tapscott for a 5th round draft pick.

They still get their top 2 draft picks. We can also throw in Sylvia, Davey or Moloney. Maybe Jamar too.

There are certain players named here that I don't want to lose, but we have to take risks. We will make wholesale changes anyway at the end of the year.

    I'm of the belief that position in round one drafting order makes no difference. GWS and GCS can't trump us, just force us to use our first round pick. They have to assume we wouldn't go higher than round two.

    It's my understanding we only activated one compo pick, the one directly after our first pick, is that the case?

    The Age reported this ahead of the announcement, but it was incorrect. We activated both.

    What if we trade pick 3 for pick 5 (or any other first round pick), we would then get pick 4 and 5 and a mid first round pick. Would we then be able to use our second round pick on viney if GC or GWS bid for viney?

    No.

    Father-son bidding is before trade week, so trades don't even come into the equation.

    • 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.

    • 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.
