    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.

    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.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
