Can’t wait to hear Sarah Jones ask Will Ashcroft if he’s excited to be joining his father’s old club.

    And Lions Expert Jonathan Boofhead on hand to give his thoughts?

    For those who haven't been following, though we have 4 picks listed, we only have two senior list spots available since we gave Hibberd and Melksham another year. This means we will only be using two picks in this draft.

    Lots of media discussion around us trying to trade our future first round picks, and potentially pick 13 too, to get into the top 5 in this draft tonight. Nothing has come of it yet, and I doubt it will, but the clubs been aggressive in trying to get high end talent in. Will be interesting to see how it unfolds!

    I cannot believe that pick 4 and 22 are worth 3 first round picks to pick 2 untried players with potential?

    Conversation about the first day of the 2022 AFL National Draft. Who will be No 1? Who will the Demons select? Will draft picks change hands and what impact would any such trades have on our selections?D3B2FE79-B75E-4A10-AD9F-DEF77AB84049.jpeg

    Well, it should get interesting when they reach Pick 63 because both Hawthorn and Richmond are shown above as holders of this coveted selection.

    Expect feathers to fly!

    Today I’m relaxed.  Years ago this was our bright light and our search for a glimmer of hope.  But we have our premiership 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆and we have confidence in JT and team to make the right moves.

    🤣🤣Love it.  Maybe given all the sudoku numbers flying around after trade and pick swaps, it got too confusing.

    If we get 4 and 22 what will we do with 37? Trade it on? It might be offered as well to seal the deal.

    Don't think Essendon can take it, as they originally owned 37 - traded to us for Weid

    Would you mind doing me a favour with the article please, Andy.

    For those that can read it it's an article written around these figures. Top ten statistically is far more valuable than the next tier.

    What pick was Bowey again? 17? 😁

    21. That was an odd draft though as there were so many academy and father son picks that the first round lasted until pick 26!

    Yes maybe they should then compare 11-20 with 21-30 etc. … I think the outcomes are obviously better for lower picks.

    37 was originally the Swans pick but given to the Bombers in the Francis trade.

    Interestingly the trades between Swans, Bombers and us were all done separately, I.e. not part of a 1 x 3-way transaction. Not sure if that means we can trade it back to them or not though.

    Can't wait to hear Nat Edwards (?) Tuomey and Shifter drone on and on and on, long after the next pick is in.

    Can't wait to see each club's recruiters looking bored/awkward when the camera sits on them long after they've submitted their pick. We then get to listen to the above for 5 more minutes while the whiz bang technology catches up. Fair dinkum - write the player's name on a piece of paper, wrap it around a rock and chuck it at the panel. It would be quicker and at least entertaining!

    I've looked at the Foxtel time slot - TWO HOURS for the first round of the draft!

    Kill me now

    They included it. I couldn't fit it in one pic.  As expected.

    If headings are correct, you are comparing 10 higher picks to 5 lower picks. If that's the case there not a big discrepancy at all. Different story if it should read  PICKS 21-30

    So hope we trade with Essendon, and you only need to watch up until pick 5.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
      Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.
