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.

    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.

    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: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
