It we are not going to win the big 1, we might as well come last and get the 1st pick. Pre-Season first pick could be a great blackmail card , if we have the balls to use it properly. We got stitched up with Farmer, and were soft with White, which from memory we gave Freo pick 2 for, and picked up Shanahan with the PSD pick 1.

    we wont come last. but if we keep this up a top 3 or 4 draft pick beckons. I would like someone with a normal kicking action, unlike Jones and Bate.

    I'll take an accountable skilled ruckman thanks. I would like a clone of Dean Cox.

    My second preference is a Tom Hawkins-type meat and vegetables bustling KPP forward.

    can a team trade an uncontracted player if he'd prefer to go in the draft? if not, just offer him the money and ignore west coast, he can then just nominate for the draft. i think he mgiht try and get something for WC though, id be happy to trade a 1st and 2nd rounder for him...

    A player has to agree to the trade for it to go ahead (Re: Ferguson for Sewell :angry: ) ala Nick Stevens ending up at Carlton.

    Well i have my eyes on Matt Kreuzer. I have watched him play. A very good tap ruckman. Doesent punch the ball hard to his teams end but has a good relationship with the midfielders and is able to tap to advantage. Very similar to Brendon Lade and of similar height. He can also play forward and has kicked a few goals. He cant play back but as said i rate this guy a lot. I think he will get picked before 2nd round so we need to snatch him and personally i prefer is we bottom out. Whats the point is trying to make a run for the finals when we aint going to make it and then have a chance at losing priority picks. Lets get set for 2009 and give neitz and white the best send off they could imagain.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
