How do we go about getting The hulk of a 17 year old Hogan from W.A? Do we have to trade with GWS for a 17 year old pick? If so I say do it that kid could rip off lucas cook's arm and beat him with it.

    Yes we have got to go into the mini draft to pick this man child up.

    I would think we could get him and Martin with our pick 3 and a player for GWS.

    Cant see them getting any better then that.

    Maybe if we just want Hogan we could trade pick 13.

    Then we get viney rnd 2 and have picks 3,4 win win

    Please explain - Why you hope the Suns pick him up- that will mean we have to take him with our first pick.Doesn't make sense- unlessI am missing something.

    2 scenarios for me.

    * Hopefully he doesn't get nominated by either the Suns or GWS, we get him in the 20's.

    * Or if he gets nominated I prefer it's the Suns, & we can fight to get him back from them in 2 years. IMO it would be tougher from GWS.

    Both these teams need tough inside ball winners.

    Im going to the club now to tell the club what needs to happen. lol

    Im sure all the guys at the club are working very hard for this up coming draft.

    I think Todd Viney is in a great position to find the best talent in this draft.

    I also think he will go for players that he likes no more skinny weak kids.

    He son is a great start for that.

    Jack would have a real great idea of who the best players are first hand which would be also very handy for the dees.

    Heavens. You'd have to think this means that we won't have to use our 1st round draft pick to get him then.

    Ed: if another clubs says they would give pick 1 to 5 for him, they could be considered tampering with the draft.

    If he goes to GWS or GC then he is lost to the MFC for good. The idea of a homecoming after 2 years is a ridiculous pipe dream.

    how about this would GC be willing to trade pick 1 for picks 3+4, and trade our pick 13 for a mini draft pick would probably get second pick would still land either martin or hogan depends who goes 1, obviously all this would need to be worked out prior to F/S bidding.

    so we get whitfield + hogan/martin + viney second round

    GC get pick 3+4

    GWS get pick 13 and maybe a player aswell.

    should i get off the drugs or is that possible????

  • Quote

    I'd prefer picks 3 & 4 to pick 1 personally.

    I really think this draft will be a lot like 2001, where Hodge was a star at number 1, but you still got Ball at 2, Judd at 3, Bartel at 8, Steve Johnson at 24, Swan at pick 50-odd... and on it goes.

    I agree with everyone that this would be a good thing for us securing Viney with a 2nd rounder.

    Yep agree, the more picks we have the better chance to build depth and get things right.

  • Quote

    2 poor examples because they were bloody weak drafts.

    And I reckon it's particularly stupid to bring up Cook as an example, halfway through his second season as a developing KPF.

    careful there Jose.....that wont sit well with the MFCSS version of draft experts/worriers.

    Somehow we have to use 3 4 13 to bag at least 6 stars in the waiting as well as Viney, excet of couse the MFCSS DE/W ver 2 who considers JV a cross between an Idaho and a Mashee !!

    • 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.
