I think the Doggies might take Weightman the pick before that unfortunately. if they do i reckon we're a chance to get Kemp with that pick. 

otherwise i agree. 

would be rapt with Green. looks a ready made player and a star of the future. 

Yeah my selection is probably more hope than reality. Get the feeling we'll only get one out of Weightman and Pickett.

Lets hope Jackson isnt a bust.... to do the deals we have done for this year and next, wont want to stuff it up.

Pick 3 wasn't involved in any deal.

Might as well play along.

Jackson 

Pickett

Hugo Ralphsmith, for the name alone.


1. Young

2. Pickett

Spoke to a contact last night and he gave me the below top 15. The ones in brackets are known amongst the industry as pretty much 100% going to happen. Not sure where the Green bid is going to come, but it appears to have dropped right down to around Carlton/Melbournes second pick for whatever reason. Absolute joke that GWS will get him so cheap!

GC - Rowell (confirmed)
GC - Anderson (confirmed)
Melb - Jackson (confirmed)
GWS - Ash
Syd - Flanders
Ade - McAsey
Freo - Young (confirmed)
Freo - Serong (confirmed)
Freo - Henry (match Carltons bid)
Carl - Stephens
Melb - Pickett
Haw - Kemp
Port - Berman
Dogs - Weightman

I've been told Carlton will 100% take Stephens if Freo don't. and the curve ball would be if the Crows picked him.

Not doubting your info, but by my info there's no chance Green goes outside the top 5-6 picks.

Yeah I was told Carlton likely bid on Henry, have it matched, then take Stephens.

I hope your mail is right! Mine was unsure and said it was now sounding later than originally expected. Sydney still a chance to bid, but seemed to have cooled/kept cards closer to chest. 

So GWS get to a GF and get another couple of guns to add to their list. Reckon they’ll win a couple of flags in the next few years

I don't follow the draft because I don't feel I have any knowledge of the draftees, so my apologies for asking -  but what process leads to a grand finalist getting pick 4?

Trading and given ongoing benefits from the AFL. The AFL looking after their franchise at the detriment of struggling established clubs.

What a glorious and completely fair competition it currently is ?

Anybody know when live trading kicks in? Is it as soon as first pick is made or does it start an hour or 2 before?

They will if they play an interstate side at the G.

How do we not take Deven Robertson or Brodie Kemp if the picks before play out like that?

Because for whatever reason we rate Pickett higher than those two, despite exposed form showing otherwise.

Sydney's not bidding on Green.

That's damn impressive.  Right on almost all counts up to our second pick, including the bids on Henry and Green.

Yeah my source was pretty bang on.

Much to my dismay I knew about Jackson and Pickett about a week ago. I’ll see if I can find out anything about our early pick tonight.

Yep, well done mate, you nailed it!

  • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

    The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

    It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

    The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

    The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

    Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
