    I've been very impressed how shrewd we have been over the previous years with our draft and trading.  

    Now that we're at the pointy end of the year and we know roughly how ladder positions will finish (or close enough) we can see how our future draft pick trades from last year look. 

    The trade with Brisbane last year that netted us two late first rounders I wasn't super on at the time (long term MFCSS sufferer)  but from a position solely based on draft points, we look to have come out on top.  If we end on top (hopefully) and Brisbane end up say fourth, the trade points look as follows:

    Received:

    • Pick 21 @ 878 points  (was 18 before F/S and academy)
    • Pick 22 @ 845 points (was 19 before F/S and academy)
    • 2021 Rd 2 being pick 33 @ 563 points 

    Total points = 2286

    Gave up:

    • Pick 30 @ 629 points
    • Pick 68 unused
    • Pick 69 unused
    • 2021 Rd 1 pick say pick 18 @ 985

    Total points = 1614

    The difference in points works out to about pick 30.  So it's going to be a very nice win.

    The Ben Brown trade which (before academy an F/S) got us Brown, pick 28 (677points) and Norths fourth round pick 55 (207) saw u give up 26 (729), 33 (563) and 69 (49).

    The difference in points (457) shows that we picked up Brown solely for about pick 39.  A very nice win as well imo.

    Can't imagine us being super active this year with minimal candy available as our first pick is Brisbane's second rounder but looking forward to once again being pleasantly surprised. 

    Wouldn't be surprised to see next years first rounder offered up but it's not as appealing noting it hopefully starts at P18.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • 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.
