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.

    66 has now disappeared?

    Ask yourself why does the pick keep moving?

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

    • 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.
