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

3. I-haven't-paid-enough-attention-and-I-am-lost-in-the-ridiculous-swamp-of rumour-and-guesstimating-on-AFL-website-,MFC-website-and-Demonland.

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.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
