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.

Oh who the F*#$% knows? I feel for Jason Taylor and co they will be having a very long night it seems.

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

I can hear all other codes of sport laughing so hard the earth is moving.

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.

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

Afl and Gill are full of themselves.  Great game but absolute tool in charge

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?

Well that was as dull as dog droppings, perhaps more so.

Poor effort from the AFL( Amateur Football League)

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.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag
