    Does anyone know what time the draft acually starts? I can't find out from the AFL web pages - they won't tell me presumably because they want me to watch a whole lot of bilge first.

    7pm

    I assume they have done away with the 10 -1 count down which sucked and will just call them out starting at 1?

    the coverage couldnt be worse than last year - but I back them to somehow lower the bar. lets talk to some kids' parents while pick 25 is being read out and we can't hear it! arrg!

    It's impossible to overestimate how low they'll go. Foxtel at its best.

    What i heard was that the recruiter's no longer call out the player # and name. They select them via the new fandangled computer program. Coach then gives them their guernsey as per usual, including the # that they'll wear.

    afl.com.au have both a video and radio stream, SEN will be doing their usual thing.

    On foxtel the fox footy channel shows the draft including player interviews, whereas i think fox sports shows the draft in it's entirety for those that just want to watch the draft and not the usual interview cut-ins.

    As some may not be able to read it I'll put below the order of Sam's Phantom Draft.

    1. Carlton - Weitering

    2. Lions - Schache

    3. Swans - Mills*

    4. Dees - Oliver

    5. Scum - Parish

    6. Scum - Francis

    7. GWS - Hopper*

    8. Gold Coast - Milera

    9. Dees - Weideman

    10. Blues - H. McKay

    11. GWS - Kennedy*

    12. Crows - Ah Chee

    13. Blues - Curnow

    14. Tigers - Gresham

    15. Lions - Hipwood*

    16. Crows - Burton

    17. Saints - Tucker

    18. Hawks - Rioli

    19. Gold Coast - Balic

    20. GWS - Himmelberg

    21. Norf - Clarke

    22. Lions - Keays*

    23. Hawks - Collins

    24. Blues - B. McKay

    25. Dogs - Dunkley

    26. Dogs - Bonner

    27. Freo - Cole

    28. WCE - Hibberd

    29. Scum - Mathieson

    30. Scum - Mitch Brown (mature age)

    As always it's a different take and worth discussion. Sam will get some right and some wrong like everyone else. So be it.

    I reckon Oliver and Weideman would be perfect for us. Strong bodied, aggressive midfielder, and a strong key position high marking forward. Complements Jesse and the mid field group perfectly. Exciting times!

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons are back at the MCG for the second week in a row. They face the Suns off a 15 day break without their prized recruit and former Demon champion Christian Petracca. This will be a massive test for the Demons who will be facing a genuine Premiership contender. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      The text messages started flooding in shortly after quarter time. One read: “Is Melbourne even at the ground?” Moments later, as Carlton’s Elijah Hollands kicked the first goal of the second term, the Blues held a commanding 43-point lead. By then, the Demons’ only score was a behind kicked by Brody Mihocek nearly five minutes into the game. Ironically, Mihocek would also register the last minor score of the day after the game took a dramatic turnaround.
