hopefully he does what grundy/Membrey did last year and slips down the draft for us.

Today's Hun has Zac predicted as a first round pick! That creates a dillema for us unless we get a PP.

If he is worth it, we should be lobbying the AFL now, like the other clubs have, to get Essendon's pick so we can get a player's brother. We could undertake to take him if he is there at that pick.

That does have some feel good factor in it for the AFL.

I reckon he'll be there at 20,

it's abit like Brodie Grundy, teams will have been looking at certain players for the first round all year and planning around that, I reckon all the teams will be hoping he slips to the second round and will pick up the blokes like Sheed who may slide abit with picks 10-20

Started alright in the TAC cup grand final. Hard at it but nothing eye catching. Boyd however 2 kicks 2 goals

yes but clubs interested, will know he is likely to be taken @ 20 & may jump us.

I think clubs will be going best available instead of trying to jump us on Jones. I reckon most clubs won't have him in their top 20 so we should be safe there.

Might not be the worst thing, if he is taken early and a Freeman or Crouch slips through to us I won't be crying, I doubt they will though, I reckon we'll be right with 20

I hope you right & I hope we can get some more picks in the area.

I'd like to pickup about 3 - 4 mature players & about 4 draftees. & some rookies

Sorry but can't agree!

One possible downside of our very successful trade period so far is that Zac may fall out of our reach.

But then perhaps all the other potential suitors have heard the very strong rumours about his really bad knees - only expect a season or maybe two maximum out of them. And "the other issues"!

He doesn't like baldies and tattoos either.

worth a go ...

Zac will go with pick range 25-35 IMO.

I am excited by all our trading but gutted Zac may go elsewhere. If we don't get him, I hope an interstate team does so we can "bring him home in 2 years

An afterthought - could we still perhaps get some interest in the 20s for Jamar? Someone who needs a mature tap ruckman for one or two years max? Or a package of some sort?

I'm never pedantic, but max?? You must mean maximum.

BTW, this a joke mono. Or should I say monoccular!

It's sad to say, but after his performances over the past two seasons, we'd probably have to pay someone to take him.

Actually, not a bad idea. Perhaps a club needing an experienced ruck with salary cap pressure might give up a pick around 25-29 for Jamar if we paid half his contract?

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
