    The whole Gill walking out to the podium thing is ridiculous. Was he just going round in circles, or something?

    This has too be the worst draft night in the history of VFL/AFL history?

    Yep, the draft used to be somewhat enjoyable, what they have turned it into is a disgraceful, abysmal, farcical circus. Has all the stench and hallmarks of Gill McLachlan ineptitude.

    Why? They knew they weren’t getting a pick tonight, now they can take their time knowing what’s already gone.

    Fox commentators amazed Valenti (?) Is still available. What's he like and would he be worth hoping makes it to our first pick?

    I’ll ask again, are we making this pick 26 tonight or can I go to bed? This is the the most drawn out shite I’ve ever been subjected to.

    Worst coverage ever.

    Just get on with it.

    Agree. It just dragged on.

    I hope Lukosius isn't as soft as Watts.

    Just a feeling.

    Thought the same. It may have been the many second grabs, and average of one goal a game. Don't know why GC didn't go the King brothers.

    I guess but they still have to go over who they might choose, just do it all in one night and be done.

    OMG I see that I have missed a riveting few hours of never to be repeated (thankfully) prime TV.

    Will it  be replayed, and if so when? (I want to know when to use my power supply down time).

    Please describe in full detail what was Gill wearing and how was his hair styled?

    How is that Syd/wce action not draft tampering?  Park a second rounder at wce, so bundle lower picks, then trade it straight back after the lower picks have been used.  How is this fair or in the spirit of the draft?  I know it cost them a later round downgrade next year, but this means they get Blakey and a second rounder for peanuts.

    So did Sydney trade that pick in AFTER they used later picks to match the bid on Blakey?  If so that should definitely not be allowed.  You shouldn't be able to trade in picks before any of the picks used for matching.  The AFL is just too stupid to have foreseen this and created a rule to prevent it.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
