i can't recall, do we have our first round draft pick for 2019 still? pretty sure we do, as i think we have to use it right?

We still have our 2019 pick and need to use it I believe based on that 4 year cycle rule. It will be good to get some elite young talent in again next year. Taylor and co landed Clarry and Weid last time they had first round picks!

Our first round pick will probably be pick 18 in 2019, I don't see us getting another top 10 pick for a while 'Lord'...let alone 2.

 

I am personally much more interested in the list of free agents next year. We shouldn't have an early first-round draft pick unless one or more of our better players is traded, and I can't see that happening tbh.

We must start to lure some top-shelf free agents while we are in the window. That's if any are available ofc.

Hopefully though at the end of next season, if things go our way, we wont care very much.

Looking at the top ten is pretty pointless unless we swap with the Blues or the Suns!

I thought the Flanders family hailed from Springfield?

So it looks like Kobe Farmer can't  be selected till next year at the earliest.

Not sure if Kobe Farmer is rated as highly as what we thought he did.

AFL Draft Power Rankings: Giants academy prospect holds off chargers from Oakleigh

The National Under 18 Championships aren’t far away. Here’s a preview from AFL Draft Central of the first of the trial games for Victorian selection. 

Scouting notes from the trials.

An Australian Under 18 squad played the Casey Demons at the MCG in an exhibition game.

Casey went full bore in the first half and led by four goals at the main break with 10 AFL listed players but took most of them off for the second half and the Aussie team took over and won by about four goals. Best for the Australian team we’re Oakleigh Chargers pair Matt Rowell and Noah Anderson.

Some good players in that lot, oddly enough.  I only watched a little bit of the game, but there were a couple of very hard at it mids with pace and skill running around out there.

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
