Did Freo punk us?

Trade us pick 8, we'll take Dev Robertson, you don't want or need him anyway. Ok done.

Drafts Serong/Stephens, with Carlton taking the other and then leaves us out of the better midfielders?

Except Robertson who may turn out to be the best of them all. I doubt Serong will be in our sights.

Not sure the angst at Pickett at 10. Only 16 players are going to the draft night with Pickett as one of them. Hawks looked at him at 11, Port 12 and Bulldogs at 13. Obviously other clubs rate him around the mark and he fits a huge need for us also. Sounds about right to me.

    I don’t know what to think about this draft for us if it pans out like has been widely speculated. 

    One thing seems apparent though. Either the list managers know more about Jackson and Pickett than the rest of the AFL world combined, or they’re making a mistake that’s sizeable enough to stack up against some of our best from the last decade.

    I feel like Weightman would be a mistake but I’ve been wrong before

    Won't know if many of them are a hit or not for years Murph.  Some no doubt will hit the ground a little better than others who may not make it or might take 3 to 5 years to find their feet.  Tough gig as a recruiter.

    Pretty sure we'll see a high level of effort, attack and pressure early on even if he takes a few years to hit his straps in other areas.

    And Pickett to Hawthorn with the very next pick .....  

    From where i sit, outside of effort and a fitness edge in favour of Weightman (and a great attitude/seemingly good character when interviewed, haven't seen Pickett interviewed but that means nothing) there's no real stand out sign that says either is going to be a much better player or a star vs the other not being so good JS.  This is where we have to trust that Taylor & Co. are earning their coin and will choose well.

    Got word this morning that Weightman is confident he’ll find him self in a kennel come tonight.

    We’re still doing riddles right?

    Apparently yesterday someone noticed some horns starting to grow on Pickett’s head.

    Either way we get a small forward, which will improve our squad either way

    • REPORT: Carlton

      The text messages started flooding in shortly after quarter time. One read: “Is Melbourne even at the ground?” Moments later, as Carlton’s Elijah Hollands kicked the first goal of the second term, the Blues held a commanding 43-point lead. By then, the Demons’ only score was a behind kicked by Brody Mihocek nearly five minutes into the game. Ironically, Mihocek would also register the last minor score of the day after the game took a dramatic turnaround.
