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

Just received this text message from my mate who works at the Falcons (where Parish plays), who also just so happens to be a mad bombers supporter: "YOU [censored]! You have stolen Parish from us. Me

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)

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..

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.

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.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
