When I heard we were after pick 28 I was pretty excited. Happy to see we've managed to get the deal done.

What do 23 and 28 get us?

A further upgrade?

51? 

Interesting, obviously have something in mind.

 

Makes our picks 23, 28, 54 and 62. Are the only 4 more spots to fill??

For mine we need another winger/outside runner, tall forward and small forward/lock-in player. 

Moving up the list to hopefully get what the FD have targeted.

we will need to fill a couple of spots with free agents or something...

will be interested to see just how we fill our list up.

I reckon we'll package it up for something..

7 spots to fill as it stands. Sounds like one, two or three of Maynard, T Smith or Keilty will be upgraded.

That makes the most sense.  We may go for someone in the pre-season draft, sign a delisted free agent etc as well.

I like the deal, though - we now have two picks in the 20s, and trading up to 28 to go with 23 suggests that we have a few players in mind that we felt wouldn't make it through to our later picks.  Or, we are looking to trade further up the draft into the teens, although I don't see that as a highly likely outcome.

Disappointed we didn't get 27 but I heard it might have failed the medical.

Nah, I think it wanted to go home.

How long can a rookie remain on the rookie list before you have to make a call?

I think Maynard will be upgraded, but not the other two, provided they are ok to stay on the rookie list for another year.

Thought pick 23 could have been used on Billings before we traded with St Kilda for p28.

Does anyone think we’re going to do anything else this year? 

Doesn't sound like it. Mahoney said we were looking to fill out three list needs and upgrade our draft hand. Think that's all she wrote

Thanks GLG, currently on holiday in the US so very happy to go to bed if there’s nothing more to see!

Surely, they wouldn't give up Billings for a pick 28.

And Gresham is the guy that I'd be targeting (even less likely, I know). He would compliment our forwardline perfectly. Alongside Petracca, Spargo, TMac, Weid and a resting ruck, that's a scary forwardline.

It'd be cheeky, but I wouldn't mind us offering up both picks in the twenties for Gresham.

Fills that small forward need and can also roll through the midfield, maybe on a wing.

Well, take 23 from 28, and get 5 !!!

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.
