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

Shai Bolton....

...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. 

Electrifying Aboriginal forwards

I think that is illegal.

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.

You trying to get me arrested MD?  lol

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.

Jack Martin is going nowhere.

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.

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
