So now they have Wardlaw, Sheezel and Reid. Hell that’s going to get them a premiership surely?

+ LDU

Early premiership? They'd dominate the TAC Cup but it's going to be a fair long time until they're a premiership contender. Need a defence and another tall forward.

    Reid to North, sheesh they’re going to be good 

    So it pays off to be a basket case of a club for 4 years 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️.

    I don't mind the idea of a draft lottery ala NBA.

    Sad to see Reaid going to North… Or is he still gettable? Hawthorn did rebuild via multiple high picks in the one draft… Clarkson possibly do the same here by trading out Pick 1.

    Anyway, Dees need to get hold of GC Pick 5.

    Duursma (Pick 4) & GC Pick 5 (Best Available)

    Trade for a Key Position Forward. Grundy to Port for Georgiadis…?

    it was always a pipedream. let's take our picks to the draft and let JT work his magic.

    Not if WC had finished last as they should 😭.

    Pick 4 and 6 this year was gettable for us, then it would be a matter of how keen WC is to trade.

    Worked for us.

    That's the way the comp is designed, would never want to see a draft lottery, NBA is totally different to AFL with only 5 starting players.

    Brayden George still to come with LDU, Simpkin, Thomas and Larkey up front.

    Building a very good side.

    I can see a few injuries before their game this week.

    The bad news is we aren't getting Reid.

    The good news is the league doesn't have to give in to North's woe is me sooking for priority picks. No more Ben McKay pick 2 compo. No more nonsense with Colonel Sanders.

    We should get a fair crack at pick 4 or pick 5, which will then ease out at least one spot with Walter from the Suns but that's better than McKay compo and Sanders off the board.

    Ziebell already got the retired/assaulted. LDU out last week. Shouldn't be hard to add a few more.

    It’s the reason we won a flag.

    Hard to see FA compo or priority picks being ahead of the Eagles. But they will be gifted Sanders some how.

    Exactly why they should change the system, now that we’ve already been able to take advantage of it! Stop anyone else from doing the same!

    We had a pair of number 1 picks and didn't win anything.

    We had picks 2, 3 (which would shouldn't have got but we did deserve a top 10 pick for Chip) and traded up from pick 6 I believe for pick 4 to get Oliver and we win a flag.

    If anything that franks the argument that a lottery that still sees the bottom 4 clubs prioritised but doesn't guarantee the top pick to anyone is a good idea.

    I mean, assuming we didn't stuff their development we would've had a far better side in the early 10's with Dusty and Nic Nat than our pick 1's.

    Dorks would choose from Duursma, McKercher or Watson and we'd have a pick of the other 2 as I can see Freo's pick landing just after Dorks

    2 very handy picks if we get the Suns pick 4/5. That’ll give an immediate boost  to our list. 
     

    Need two athletes with speed and skill that’ll help with ball movement and transition in the coming years.

    North and Freo will end in 18th and 15 th spot respectively , this improve our position of getting no.1 draft pick thou a long shot. What would we need to give up Pick 5, pick 15 and next years 1st rounder and a 2nd rounder for a Grundy deal.

    Our alternative would be get Caddy and Read

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
