Woo-hoo. Gold Coast are not given No.2 pick.

    Yeah, they were given pick one instead...

    Which means they now have 1 AND 2.

    I went too soon. Gerard Whately called it incorrectly. Boo-hoo.

    meh... the second round pick was going for Langdon. 

    I think giving them a mid first round pick next year is a bit of a joke given pre season hasn't even started yet. 

    After Martin goes they will be adding picks 1 & 2 plus another first rounder plus have the first two picks of the second round. 

    The will also be adding Ellis as a FA and have the likes of Rankine to come in and improve their list. 

    This team will rise up the ladder very quickly if they get their culture right this time around and it will be really awkward if the Suns finish 8-12 next year and are still granted another first round PP...

    It's the old schoolyard take backs. Given they traded that pick to Brisbane last year

    Just give them the lot #$*& you AFL

    We have been struggleing for decades and get zip, they have only had to suffer a few years.

    Why not give them s flag, a 5 goal head start in every match next year, any player the next 20 years

    You watch they will win a flag before us.

    So we get #3 instead of #2, when going into this year we thought we might get #16-18.

    Some people whinge over the smallest differences.

    That's easy to understand.  Our coaches have no [censored] idea how to play.

    This is bull [censored].

    We stay on the bottom for years and get nothing they spend one year on the bottom and get a priority. The AFL choose favourites so why didn't they stop Lynch going to the Tigers and destroying them. WHAT A JOKE!

    The question has to be asked who is no3 in the draft?

    Depends on the team, Rowell is a safer option, but Anderson i think is more talanted. sadly Suns get both.

    Listening to SEN a short time ago on the drive home, I think it was Chris Pelchen on with the host and they were talking about Pick 2 and how the Hawks will make a play for it in order to nab Anderson. I only caught the chat half way through so I’m unsure if it’s just Pelchen’s suggestion or if there’s any substance to it.  

    Wouldn’t surprise at all if this did eventuate.

    I believe it was only given to them on the provision that they keep both picks and keep the two best friends together. That's what I'm hearing anyway

    Pelchen is full of it...

    Sorry if this has been mentioned elsewhere but someone mentioned there had been discussion in the media that Anderson was not a lock at 2 and might fall to us as GCS will nominate Green at 2 and GWS won't match.

    Has anyone else heard this?

    Magical if true.

    Going by the way the AFL sold the news of its draft concessions to the public (GCS taking two best mates from Victoria to limit the go home factor) I think it would be highly unlikely that the Suns would depart from the script of selecting Rowell and Anderson with 1/2.

    But how great would it be if they did?

    Every media report I’ve heard/read has stated that GC have already picked Rowell and Anderson. The AFL would not let GC not pick the two, picking two best mates was the excuse the AFL and GC “sold” to the public/media. Can you imagine how bad the AFL would look if GC changed their mind, the AFL will take away the rest of the concessions given to them in that instance.

    • 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.
