  • Demonland changed the title to Welcome to Demonland: Pick 11

Seems a weird trade in face value.

We must be on trading Pick 11.

What does leave us with picks wise?

6,11 and 41 plus whatever we receive for Grundy

To me, it looks like we're going all out for pick 1, but maybe I'm reading into that too much?

Can someone point me to where I find the AFL rules that govern drafting, free agency, compensation picks, academy etc etc.

I have always found it hard to find this stuff on the AFL website and I like to understand what I am reading.

I think it is the Sheldon in me. ( Not the Carlton player ).

Curtin (6), 11 and a future first is probably the most we could offer and about the most the Eagles could get.
 

North could beat it with Curtin (3), 15, handout future first as well but it’s not better unless they throw 21 in as well and even then the Eagles might prefer 11 to 15,21.

Assuming North wouldn’t put pick 2 and 3 or their own future first on the table.

Should we do it, not sure. But it’s probably on the table.

I wonder if Geelong would have accepted 14, 27 and 35 for pick 7.

Surely 6, 11 and a future first wouldn’t get it done for pick 1?

And I’m not sure how I feel about packaging them up for anything less than that, i.e. pick 2 or 3 

Will be very curious how this plays out…

Silly move, 1300 points for 2300 points.  Crazy.

And? We don’t need points. 
 

We clearly don’t think we will take more than one maybe two picks in the draft (plus list upgrades etc). 
We are going all in on pick one. Bring it on.

Agree but I doubt we have the currency for pick 1.

How do we compare with the Hawks now ?

It's part of a bigger plan.  I'd say Petty is going.  They are going hard for pick 1.  10 from Adelaide and McAdam for Petty, gives us 6, 10 and 11 to work into pick 1.

We either did this to get into another trade convo or for a specific player and I love when Taylor trades up for a specific player. We don’t need ND27, we need talent.

And don’t get me started on points…

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
