It’s going to be a boring to watch but I’m still looking forward to it. Excited to see who’s the lucky draftee is that gets to join our young and talented list. 

How things have changed these past few years. The Grand Final is now our GF, not draft day.

I’ll be tuning in tonight, purely to hear us being congratulated for winning the 2021 premiership.

One of the results of the Covid19 pandemic is that it will take a while before the outcome of last year’s AFL National Draft can be judged. And if 2020 turned out to be an enigma for recruiters then t

How nice is it that the draft night is not one of the biggest things on our footy calendar?!  We are not having to find the club’s saviour.

That is what I said in point 3) of the post you quoted but curiously deleted it from the quoted post 🤔  

The deleted part of my post is below.

There are many permutations of pick swaps for us and other clubs and yeah giving up pick 17 for two in the low 20's is one. 

Honestly didn't see any point 3 when I quoted you. At the very least I didn't intentionally delete it.

Mac Andrew to the Gold Coast. Bad luck for the kid. From a selfish perspective increases the chances of him coming home to us after 2 years or when the suns are disbanded

Nothing surer. He will be in Melbourne (city) in 3 years.

Horne-Francis looked the most unimpressed person to be taken at Number 1 in the draft I think I have ever seen.

Thought the same MadAsHell - Seriously death by a thousand lashes would be welcomed rather than watching this waffling dribble.

If this is the best night of the year for Cal Twomey then I am intrigued to know what a bad night for him could look like.......

Not sure he isn't happy, I just fink he might be a foody player first and fourmost.

Blake Howes looks a pretty safe pick as predicted on the phantoms.  Any one got any late mail as to our first choice? 

All depends what the Giants do with their next pick.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
