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.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
