Ohh the guy who emphatically stated no less than a week ago that Curnow would be our first picked, that guy?

We could very well end up selecting Oliver but Brett Anderson would have just as much clue as you or I.

Are yes, the famous quote that was referenced that made me ask for a link. I was then critised for not believing said poster.

Of course, in reality Anderson was doing nothing more than guessing, which he has since confirmed.

He's still guessing, but it's an educated guess now.

Anyone still think we got screwed on Howe? We plugged pick 29 directly in to a trade we were going to use Howe in. That was his market value. Anyone also still care that we used 25 instead of 29 for

christian petracca ‏@cpetracca7 13m13 minutes ago Great trade period for @melbournefc. Excited for 2016. A lot of hard work to prove a lot of people wrong and that doubt us. Let's do this.

Heard Worsfold interviewed just now...sound very much like they will take a tall at 4 or 5. Could mean Weidman will be gone by 7.

Great, even better for us! If they take Weideman then that'll leave us with either Parish or Francis for pick 7 (assuming Ah Chee is drafted by Gold Coast)

And Curnow.

My late mail is that we'll bid on Mills at 3 and then take Weideman at 4.

We want him too much and aren't prepared to risk him not being available at our 2nd pick.

We like Oliver, Parish and Francis and will take whichever one is still there at our 2nd pick.

I'd be happy with this outcome.

We need to add to our midfield so would prefer Parish or Oliver over Francis.

Highly doubt we'll take Weideman at 4.. but wait and see.

This would probably go against what Goodwin was just talking about 30 minutes ago....

This makes perfect sense if we really want Weideman.

How reliable is your "mail".

Before trade period I heard second hand from Sam's dad that Melbourne were definitely the most interested club. A few days ago I heard again that Mark thought Sam will be going to Melbourne. It sounds like we do definitely want him, but how much we want him compared to Oliver/Parish I have no idea.

I am slowly coming around to Sam Weideman being a demon now. I do admit he is a impressive in the way he speaks and presents himself. at 196cm with vice like hands it is a bit exciting.

My biggest worry is obviously his body..

Pretty good I think mate. From a Foundation Club member that has caught up with a couple of key people this week. If this doesn't happen, top office feed our top Members cr*p.

How will you all be watching the draft tonight?

Don't have FOXTEL and would have been watching it from my phone (In-app subscription/ not live pass) but broke it two days ago.

Does anyone know if you can stream it through the AFL website "Live Pass" login???

If so I'll just pay the $5 for a "weekly pass".

Goody just said we will take best available with 3 and 7 and not neccasarily a forward, so we could end up with Oliver and Francis

Thanks mate, I have a feeling it will start at 6:30 pm so the commercials should stop soon.

Are you watching via your phone, tablet or PC?

Tablet. AFL TV with some old footage on. The thumbnail says 2015 NAB DRAFT though.

You got the "Welcome to Melbourne Football Club - Clayton Oliver" thread ready to go Oli?

They turn existing one into that. Already done the post though :)

Getting all too excited now! Hopefully this will be the last time we have picks in the top 10 for a long time.

Good luck to Jason Taylor and his crew.. Will be absolutely backing him to nail this draft like he has the past couple of years.

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
