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…? 


after all that

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.

Get the Tassie kid, he looks very, very good

As long as the AFL don't try and pilfer him when Tassie comes in ala Scully

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.

And Clarkson

1. Reid - North

2. Walter - Gold Coast

3. Curtin - West Coast

 

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: 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.
