Brett Anderson just tweeted me back an emphatic Oliver to go at 3/4 to Dee's. Looks like that ones a given. Question now turns to 7

    If we take Oliver I'll be a bit smug because as soon as I saw his highlights (I know it's hard to read a lot into them) I rated him highly.

    We all will.

    As if we were the only one who did.

    The difference is when I saw his highlights he wasn't rated a top pick.

    Is that a difference?

    I think most people thought the same.

    Still find all this last minute interest in Oliver really unusual. Have to wonder if this is some kind of plan from Essendon.

    Mark Neeld would want Parish over Ollie wouldn't he

    not sure if already mentioned, but oliver actually has a persistent/chronic groin issue and didn't train much his year, as in he just rocked up to games and played. (three of my mates who are getting drafted next year who play against and with him told me this).

    A bit risky imo

    He has been doing a pre season program given to him by the bushies and one on one work with a personal trainer aswell.

    His body is injury free.

    The suggestion that our interest in and decision to select a particular player in the National Draft being dictated by another club is absurd in the extreme.

    Let me ask you this, what plans have Melbourne made for other clubs to select which players?

    Olisik just had one of the all time great orgasms. Well done son.

    Oh, and welcome Clayton. I reckon you'll be a gem!

    alright lets hope this pick works out. SEN said his mum is in tears. I hope thats because her son got drafted and not because melbourne got him.

    Looking forward to seeing what this kid can do.

    How long until there is a thread saying we should have drafted Darcy Parish? Too soon?

    I was thinking of starting tonight

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
