In nearly every draft I read, Sanders has slipped to our pick. Surely we take him if available, he couldnโ€™t have done much more this year. That is assuming all of the other players in that top โ€œtierโ€ have already been picked.

Easily gone if Hawks pick Watson over Curtin, Dogs will swoopย

Leaving us with Curtin, out of that top "tier"?

We do have interest in Curtin (and the Dogs don't), at pick 6, according to Cal T.

Dogs have a lot of young talls already, and Croft in this draft

True, thatโ€™s why they wonโ€™t draft Curtin

Agree. Thats a Xmas gift for us if Sanders is available at โ€œ6โ€. Heโ€™s a high quality skilled midfielder.ย

I'd love to see Sanders on our list, even if there's every chance he'll be gifted to Tasmania in a fewย  years.ย  He's absolute quality and makes the players around him look better.ย ย

Is it just me, or does it seem like there are quite a few highly rated Tasmanians this year?

Previous years I canโ€™t recall much talk of talent from the apple isle.

Good signs for the state anyway.

Interesting that Twomey doesn't mention us re team thats are into Leake

Maybe our links to him have been exaggerated? Interesting to see us linked to Tholstrup in this form guide, maybe he is an option at pick 11 if Windsor is goneย

This list is the best guest of where they think recruits will go including bids made on players IMO. That would equate to our pick 6 & 11 becoming 7 and 15 which equates to Saunders & Wilson which I don't think is a bad outcome. The only spanner in the works is if Curtin goes at 1 or GCS doesn't match a bid on some of their academy players.

Based on Calโ€™s rankings, Curtin or Sanders sounds feasible with our first pick.

And Watsonย

I think there's no chance either of these things happen.

No link with Wilson or O'Sullivan either. Not sure I fully believe it.

Beyond the usual names for our first pick he has us as showing interest in Windsor, Tholstrup and Charlie Edwards.

Edited by Nascent

@Nascentย thanks for the the Fox sports rankings read. As per my phantom, thereโ€™s still likely some players who might drop here and be available at the 40ish range.

Taylor Goad. Clay Hall. Joel Freijah. ย  All are very impressive youngsters in this years crop. Ashton Moir could be the biggest wildcard in this years pool.ย 

However we will likely pass on the late 2nd round pick 42 (would prefer us to trade it into a 2024 2nd round pick - possibly with the Power). ย 

Iโ€™d be happy if that Shaun Mannagh made it to 42.

Heโ€™s mature age, but would be well suited to us as a speedy high half forward or small forward.

Fast, gets possessions and is a nice kick and be hits the scoreboard too.


We'd be laughing if we could get Moir at '42' and he matured to be as good as his previous year suggested.

Hasnโ€™t picked the young doggy in the first 50. Might that mean a gentlemanโ€™s agreement to let him go through to the rookie list.ย 

ย 

My gut feels we will look to add someone who can have immediate impact.
We are in the flag window and going full tilt at immediate improvement.ย 
Pick 6, praying for Watson (apart from a Reid trade) feels like the best choice to help our struggles forward. Pick 11, best available with a bias towards a quality tall def/frwd which will be desperately needed in 2-3 years. If not a ready made mid pick 11.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasnโ€™t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
