    Brisbane have pick 18 and 19. My guess is we will do 25 + future first for 18 + future first with Brisbane betting they will finish higher then us.

     

    Maybe throw in a future 3rd rounder we got from bulldogs for good measure.

    Apparently us and Brisbane in talks about a future pick swap.

    Just to go with this - apparently our future first is in play, so you would expect Brisbane's first and something else might come up.

    Don’t we need a future second to trade our future first?

    Could be 18 and future second for 25 and a future first. 
     

    We’d be taking a big risk to do that

    If this is just a pick swap it doesn't need to occur today does it?

    Don't think so

    Yes, that makes it interesting. Does it mean we're looking for an earlier pick to use on trading in another player?

    Only other players I've heard through this week connected to us are Polec or T Phillips. This deal doesn't sound like one that would be relevant to either of them.

    I think you can swap picks on draft night, not to sure about after the trade?

    wtf are we playing at??

    Brisbane will trade picks 18, 19 and a future second to Melbourne for a future first-rounder, 25, 68 and 69

    Good move I reckon.  Backing themselves to improve and now have 2 first rounders this year

    Seems strange that we're doing this all now and not after the conclusion of trade period tonight? Really seems like we're up to something.

    Yes don't worry, I have faith! Let's see if any late trade goes down too?? Also looks like we need to revisit the draft thread to see who's available thereabouts

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
