Of course he would say that.

Should there be no draft this year he'd be singing a different tune 


It won't make much difference if no junior football is played this year. 

Try picking today's talent on the back of what a 16 or 17 year old was doing last year.  You will have as much chance of selecting quality at pick 1 or pick 20.

I was actually interested in this and checked a few phantom drafts that were done prior to previous seasons. I was a bit surprised - generally, the projected top 3-5 picks haven't actually changed all that much over the course of the year. This time last year - Green, Rowell and Anderson were in the frame for pick 1. In 2018, ditto for Lukosius, Walsh and Rankine. However, there have generally been a few names touted as top 5-10 picks that missed out on being drafted altogether.  

If there's a draft this year, it might actually go the other way - the top few picks might be incredibly valuable, whereas there might be little difference between pick 5 and 50.

The closest thing to a lottery,  this coming draft, IMO.

Yeah,  but its only P8 down to around P35,  that we'll care about.


Regardless of what happens with the draft this year, this was a good trade at the time and I'm stoked that we've got Pickett.

Good luck to Nth, but I have a feeling their supporters may look back at this as a 'We could have got Kozzi moment'.

 

Most clubs know who they want a few years in advance and just trim down he list and raft day depending on their position and other picks.

Not that much of a lottery for the perceived  top 20.

Update. 

Kangaroos Pick 6

Demons Pick 17

Sorry DL, I’m not understanding?

We don’t get North’s first round pick next year, they only get ours...

so as it stands they have both picks 6 and 17.


To clarify Kangas have our pick 6 as per current ladder

We don't get a pick back, we used it last year on Kozzie

  • 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.
