Need something to keep me occupied until the real thing begins, so I thought I'd predict what trades we'd make and how we'll be looking heading into the draft.

Under the assumption that Collingwood & Hawthorn get band one compo for Thomas & Buddy. Picks 11 & 19. Carlton get band 2 for Betts, Pick 21. We get band 3 for Sylvia, Pick 24 and Richmond get band 5 for White, Pick 51.

Trade Jetta & 4th round pick (59) to Freo for Michie and their 4th round pick (74).

Trade Pick 2 to Brisbane for Rockliff and their 2nd round pick (29).

Trade Tapscott & Pick 29 to Hawthorn for Savage and their 2nd round pick (38).

Trade our Sylvia compo pick (24) and our 3rd round pick (40) to Essendon for Myers & Colyer.

Extend Taggert & Nicholson's contracts for 12 months and delist Magner.

Sign Cross as adelisted free agent.

Head to the draft with picks 23 (Luke Dunstan or Patrick Cripps), 38 (Cameron Giles) and 74 (Chris Michaelides)

Rookie Draft with two picks: 2 (Jay Lever or Peter Steffe), 20 (Mitch Thorp, Andrew Ainger or Aaron Cornelius who'slikely to be delisted).

Wonder what other expect/hope to see?

    I thought pick 3 was involved in band one somehow? Some crackhead was talking about us getting pick 3 (through band one) for Sylvia?

    No chance we'll get band 1 for him. Band 3 is likely (24). If we're lucky Band 2, unlucky Band 4

    In regards to the OP, those trades would be great and would really turn over our list. However i can't seeing us getting a second rounder back with Rockliff. He's contracted so Brisbane can afford to play hardball. I also don't think Savage will come to us as better primed teams (Carlton) are also into him. Lastly, I don't think Dunstan will be available at pick 23 but I'd be happy with Zack Jones or Patrick Cripps

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • 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.
