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.

    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....

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

    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.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
