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.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
