    Great get guys! Well done!

    Love to hear more from him about Sparrow and Jordon if possible, maybe even Bradtke.

    Please ask if we would have gone for Anderson if GCS didn’t get the priority pick? Also if we were close to bidding on Green and whether GWS snookered us by moving to pick 4?

    If you get the chance i’d be interested to know if they take into consideration the “go home factor” on a player by player basis if at all.

    How does he and Mahons work in relation to picks? Taylor rates this years draft better than next, “hey Josh get me as many low picks as you can this year!” Does that happen?

    Since he came to the club is there a player or 2 he was uhming and ahhing about and chose a different player that he now regrets not taking?

    Any players we were going to pick but just got pipped on by another club that he’d love to have at Dees?

    Questions:

    Can he give us a rundown on who the demons might have coming up as potential academy picks (or whatever they're called)? There are clubs that seem to be dripping with options and others (like us who have very few). Can he clarify our (NT) zone in this regard and has any of it been lost to GCS. I believe we have the Alice Springs area but is that the extent of it?

    Can he also talk about father-sons coming up in the next few years? Is Jeff White's son automatically tied to GCS with these new gift rules or can he still come to us (assuming he makes the AFL grade)?

    What is the departmental structure now that T Viney is behind a tractor? Who's the list manager etc?

    Cheers

    Considering we took three interstaters in the draft, I’d like to know how much ‘flight risk’ or ‘return home’ factor they take into consideration? I’m assuming a straight bat answer by JT might be played here and clubs like to back themselves in but to be fair dinkum - does this not rank highly in the selection process?

    It might be too specific, but I'd love to hear his thoughts about Pickett vs Weightman.

     

    I'd also be interested to hear about:

    - science vs stats vs gut feel when it comes to drafting. Are certain stats non negotiable or very strong lead indicators? How strongly is biometric information considered? Ie expected height based on family data?

    - draft night process. Do we rate all players in the draft in order then pick the highest available? Do we rate groups of players collectively so that we can pick sliders? Who makes the call to trade live picks vs draft what is available?

    In the interview with Cal Twomey he said because of where we looked like finishing he sat on some junior players quite closely towards the end of the year. Can you ask if Jackson and Pickett were two of those players?

    Kobe Farmer.

    Also Kalani White (the other Jeff's son). Probably still a few years off but would be interesting to know if Father Son trumps Gold Coast's academy zone selection. Knowing the AFL they will most likely change the rules if he is looking like a gun.

    I'd like to ask him who he expects to jump out of the pack this year and surprise.  Also, where is Petty pencilled in to play.

    Some really good questions suggested here, mine are mundane.....

    Asking about NGA prospects for next year would be good. Kobi George and Deakyn Smith I am aware of, but are there others?

  • Quote

    Just to finish with a trivial one:

    Daisy Pearce has had twins, a girl and a boy. 

    If both of them turn out to be potential AFL players, what is their eligibility to play for MFC as Mother son/daughter?

    If you're referring to this season, Goodwin said he will play forward in his interview with SEN.

    Daisy said on SEN last year when they were born that she needs to play 50 AFLW games.

    Seems a bit rich when they only played about 8 games last season.

    They should lower it to 25 or 30 if they are only going to play just over a handful of games a year.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
