2020 AFL Draft

Ugle Hagan should be a Crow.  Worst team in the comp don't even get the best talent in the draft.

Dogs win a flag 4 years ago and make finals the last two years and get pick 1.

Farcical.

    And now they're telling us that the crows are taking 4 minutes to decide who is next?

    The whole draft, they estimate about 55-60 kids

    Aha. Nice. I saw it was over 2 nights and thought they had split it again.

    Rookie draft tomorrow.

    What are Adelaide waiting for here. Surely they know who they're taking now. Are they required to wait the 5 minutes in order for the interviews to take place?

    Has to be the AFL dragging it out for media

    Dumb Crows in handing Dogs all the publicity. Should have picked the kid they wanted and let Roos nominate him and then he would be 2 not 1.

    Not sure how it would work but there should be some kind of compensation.

    This draft like 2020 is just dragging on unnecessarily.

    At this rate we will get to our selections around ten pm. I will watch a movie in the mean time.

    This is very annoying.  Part of the interest was watching the clubs and their deliberations.

    Does anyone know if it is broadcast on another platform?

    Phillips to North. Good pick, for mine.

    If you're trying to build a club the right way, through contested footy with high character, he's someone you can build a club around.

    Why aren't they showing each teams recruiting boss call the names out?  Just flashing the names up as they come in is so lame... guess the AFL haven't discovered webcams, Zoom, technology etc....

    Hand all or some of the "spent" picks to the club who lost their spot?

    May give them access to earlier picks than otherwise, or could give them assets they can trade on the night to improve other positions or future draft hands.

    Bit of a surprise with the Roos going for Will Philips

    Terrible move by the Crows.   Lost all the prestige  and marketing bonus of having the #1 pick.

    • 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.
