Assuming we gain a priority pick and we have picks 2 and 3 do we put 1 pick on the table for a gun afl midfielder like Dale Thomas or do we put both pcks on the table since we are in desperate need of 2 gun AFL mids???

No...he's a free agent.

say THANKYOU

Fall on the floor laughing until I have to be carted off to hospital.

If we get a pick there's no moral way it can be at the top of the first round. I'll take it if they're offering but the other clubs should hold a protest rally if we get a pick anywhere before #19 or #20.

The word is Piority....that means we go before !!. But I can see where the question is before what.?

In a dream world itr would be before round 1...so we might well end up with 1/2 or 1/3

but we might be run out of town for that combo. therefore 19 seems a political compromise.

But then again, it is the AFL and they make it up as they go along...so wtf knows ...lol

again..just say thankyou for its a freebie..a bone for the dog.....woof !!

Good point. This is why I think assistance will be in the form of mini draft or some other help. I'm not sure pick 19 will help us get anyone who will impact (although it may allow us to trade pick 2 for such a player and still draft a good young prospect). Edited by deanox

the logicist in me thins that here we have the AFL in its usual place de norm....sh!t-central.

In order do deliver to its problem child whilst placating the rabble it must deliver a solution that provides whilst seemingly within precedents.

A mini draft fulfills all of this. It provides an opportunity for us and at the same time ought to really disadvantages no one...not toooo much,not if you allow for "things"

I hope the powers that be, that is OURS, realise this is the closet thing to a last dip for salvation that will ever come our way. [censored] this up, and we might as well all wander off.

I don't think we'll get a PP but if we do I think it will be at the middle to end of the first round, I don't really care about time we stopped worrying about picks to get us out of our problems

If we actually in some way managed to pick up Patty Dangerfield in a trade I would wet my pants with excitement.

In regards to the priority pick, I agree with Supermercado - there is no way we'd deserve a pick in the first round and the other clubs would (fairly) spit chips.

If we get a pick at the start of the first round trade it to the dogs for Ryan Griffin. They need a forward for the future and Griffin is better than Thomas. They could then get Thomas boyd who we probably won't need with hogan on the list next season.

Not even worth contemplating. We will not get any player in the next 2-3 years of this quality in a trade.

Trade Kennett to Collingwood for Eddie McGuire, he is out of contract.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
