Every team that has drafted a Rioli has won the #AFLGFAFLFinals_2018.png within 3 years. 1990: Hawks draft Willie Sr. Win ‘91 flag. 1998: Dons (rookie) draft Dean. Win ‘00 flag. 2007: Hawks draft Cyril. Win ‘08 flag. 2015: Tigers draft Daniel. Win ‘17 flag. 2016: Eagles draft Willie. ‘18 flag?

    Any Riolis available ?  

    Seriously Toby Bedford is the electrifying small indigenous forward on my list for MFC.  He has pace skill and tackling pressure.  Get the kid

    ...been saying this for a while, serious x-factor but has been passed over for Higgins.

    Worth a look.

    He's too introverted.

    Massive case of correlation not equaling cause Imo.

    And every one of us has been lamenting taking Toumpas (a running outside mid) over Wines (the slow competitive type we are stacked with) for years.

    We can’t have it every way.

    Ok, well let’s not recruit any fast, skilful players because one we did Pick was a spud. 

    Let’s go and find more Tysons & Maynards because we mustn’t have enough of those slow, unskilful types.

    I would back the MFC to be the exception to this rule should we ever draft a rioli. That damned Norm Smith curse.

    We need a couple badly.   You won't find too many Premiership winning teams, or even runners up, that didn't have some indigenous magic on the park.

    It will be the icing on our team of big contested ball winning brutes.

    I want another Aaron Davey, a Jeff Farmer and their sons.

    I believe we once went to the draft intending to pick up a Rioli, but the dyslexic recruiter read out Rigoni instead.*

    * no disrespect to Riggers, one of my favourites!

    That is not what I said. Drafting is a complicated art.

    We need fast skilful players but they have to meet other critearia and be obtained at a fair selection / price

    Jeffy is still on our list, whether or not the magic has gone from him remains to be seen. But I do agree that I would like to see us look at recruiting a skilful fast indigenous player, there’s no doubt they seem to have some kind of magic that’s impossible to describe. 

    I’d love an Aaron Davey v2!

    I’d love to see a Garlett resurrection but feel like we might be up the creek on that.

    Wonder if hes available?

    Gold Coast still have so much talent.  Can you blame their kids for not flourishing up there?

    If we could get Martin and Koladlaldashnij it would be huge.

    Looking at the state leagues top goal kickers.

    Shane McAdam - my mail is Carlton pick and trade him back to the Crows

    Tyson Strengle - out of contract Tiger rumoured to go to the Crows

    Anyone in the West know anything about Cody Ninyette or Michael Bennell?

    When is Farmer's son eligible for the draft?

    Lots of speculation linking him to Essendon, but can't imagine GC would let him go cheaply. Another coming out of contract in 2019.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
