    Is anyone/website tracking the revised draft order as Academy bids are matched.  Would like to see what has happened to our #28 and #50.

    He'll go before our picks anyway so it doesn't matter if North pick him.

    Will he though?

    Tigers will likely take Macrae with the pick before ours.

    Hoping for him and Cook though!

    Yes... Cotchin and Martin both at the tail end of their careers.

    Bruhn didn't look happy about going to gws

    His uncle is a HUGE Dees fan, had big hopes he'd end up with us.

    Live pick swap with pies if mcrae doesnt get picked by gws would make sense

     

    edit: :(

    Why no bid on McInnes?

    [censored] you Collingwood! Wanted Macrae badly. 

    Hoping for Cook and Carroll now!

    Another idea to make the academies and father son a bit more "fairer".

     

    Similar system to now (points discount and bidding system) but you must have your next pick within 1 round (~17 picks) of the original pick, or else you can't bid. So you move up at most 1 round, plus pay the rest of the points from future picks like current.

    The club who gets out-bid gets the next pick like usual, and also another pick exactly 1 round later (~18 picks) as compensation. 

    So Dogs would have needed to keep their first rounder to bid. Adelaide would have got picks 2 and pick 21 (1st pick of round 2) in return for pick 1. Not perfect, but better than nothing. And the draft order is only a little effected overall.

     

    You can downgrade your picks, but if you trade them out completely, you could miss out on your player if you underestimate their pick.

    And live trading is increased as clubs offer to drop back in the draft order on the night if academy or f/s players go a bit lower than expected.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
