    Although I would love to grab Curnow at 4, Matheison at 10 to add to the midfield mix if Weideman is unavailable

    Don't know what planet you guys have been on, but that's how the new draft system will work. we have the 3rd and 7th live pick of the draft.

    Some of the above clearly don't understand it, lol.

    I should have said that we have been penalised for playing the system too well!

    I agree that i don't think Francis will be available (unless we pick him at 3). One of Weideman or Curnow i'm hoping will be available at 7. If both are, instead of pulling my hair out wanting one or the other, i'll just back JT and his team in.

    I think the assumption the lad is making is that he is taking into account bids on academy players.

    From no level of expertise beyond reading a lot of other phantom drafts this certainly fits the common narrative.

    If Essendon take both Curnow and Francis it really is heart in mouth stuff with the Gold Cast's pick, hoping they don't draft a tall - I imagine their probable pick was canvassed during the trade discussions.

    My tip is as follows (not including the academy picks):

    1) Weitering

    2) Schache

    3) Parish

    4) Francis

    5) Mathieson

    6) Milera

    7) Curnow

    I'll be very surprised, if as you are predicting, we bid on Kennedy (GWS), I don't think Carlton will either - gotta be a sweetheart part of the pick trades we both made with GWS. I don't think GCS will bid on him either - it just creates bad karma for them with GWS in similar future situations. GWS has to be praying that Essendon doesn't bid on Hopper or Kennedy and then 10 is a live pick.

    Thinking about it more i have decided to change

    1. Jacob Weitering - Carlton

    2. Josh Schache - Brisbane

    3. Charlie Curnow - Melbourne

    4. Darcy Parish - Essendon

    5. Aaron Francis - Essendon

    6. Wayne Milera - Gold Coast (again, hoping they don't take Weidman)

    7. Sam Weidman - Melbourne

    If Essendon take Weidman, Gold Coast will take Francis and i reckon we should take Mathieson to bolster our mids

    Have heard from a reliable contact that he has a lot of work to do on his consistency/endurance

    Could slip to 10-15

    From reports on the site, Goodwin is set on him. My concern is the way he's testing he just doesnt seem to be outstanding in any of the categories. I know it's not the be all and end all. Watts was outstanding, Sam Mitchell was very average for example. But There is a chance with Parish that he jumps up to the next level and gets found out by the pace , and the physical and aerobic intensity. Risk for any draftee I guess. I dont have enough facts nor have ever seen him live so I just hoping that whoever is making the choice gets it right. Really can make or break this clubs aspirations.

    The noise I'm hearing is that Parish is a lock at 3 and we are hoping for Curnow at 7

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
