Do we have any picks left tonight ? Thats my question??

Technically no. But we don't need one. Taj will be the last pick in the draft.

    Can you panic a little bit more please?

    Dont worry about the pick. We have one. The AFL coverage is rubbish. It doesnt bother updating the pick numbers.

    I'm curious who we attempted to trade up for with Adelaide. Was it Soligo or did we think Adelaide was after Howes or another player? Apologies if discussed earlier/elsewhere

    I dont think we know yet. We were so heavily linked to Howes, that I would like to think that it was for him. Hopefully JT lets us know in a post draft interview.

    Fair enough but it can be confusing. I thought if no one nominated Taj and Andy M-W we could take them as Rookies saving money and keeping a senior list spot.

    It is confusing and I'm still not across all the rookie rules. I believe AMW can be cat-b Rookied if no bids comes through.

    I agree Picket needs to panic more as I'm sure MFC recruiters were asleep at the wheel and plumb forgot about Woey Junior

    We've got picks until we fill our list or pass, we traded out the earlier picks for draft capital next year so we didn’t waste them this year.

    Reading between the lines sounds like we were very surprised Howes was available

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
