Are you saying we would pick Caddy over Curtin? Cal had us taking Curtin if he's still available at pick 6. I doubt Caddy would have been taken before pick 6, although Cal did later link Caddy to the Dees.

That’s what I’ve heard.  I reckon I might have the top 10 by the weekend

    Reid, Walter, McKercher, Duursma
    Hawks: Watson
    Dogs: Sanders
    Dees: Caddy or Curtin
    GWS: Windsor, (Caddy taken) or Curtin
    Geel: Curtin/(Caddy taken)/ O’Sullivan/ Wilson/ Leake
    Ess: O’Sullivan/(Windsor, Caddy taken)/Wilson/Hardeman
    Adel: Wilson/O’Sullivan (taken)
    With an Ethan Read bid some where.

    Rough attempt at amalgamating your mail with Cal Twomey’s. 

    If the Hawks and Dogs picks start to filter through before the draft the focus will switch towards our choice. 

    Curtin seems the hardest to place, could go 5, 7-13. Us and GWS might prioritise needs, so my guess is the Cats grab him.

    Hopefully Leake is available at 11 for us

    I doubt it. Sheehan is very inaccurate in these drafts each year.

    Was in a restaurant 1 night in 2008, Sheehan was at the next table, asked him If Nic Nat would look good in a dees strip, he said, " Believe me the best player in the draft is Jack Watts", He goes on Hype not smarts, if he says we will pick someone, then hopefully we don't.

    I think GWS really like Leake from the reports I've read and he's certainly in contention according to their list manager.

    I was told 2 months ago we were heavily into Duursma, Watson & Caddy. I took it with a grain of salt. Maybe some truth there?

    I just don’t see it myself.

    Yeh they’re probably the danger. I feel moving up to 11 with all those picks will be a waste if we don’t get Leake or Windsor

    Could grab both.

    According to Cal T. :

    ”Unless Roos come with a last huge offer, Eagles set to hold at 1. Could dangle a future first if Dan Curtin is still on the board”.

    Wonder if he is talking about the Dees.

    Take it if we get offered it.

    Why?

    You get a player this year, who could get you Reid in a couple of years and even if not, is the type of player we need and you have him now.

    WC could rise a few spots and you don’t know who is where next year and you are a year behind in development of a player.

    Not for me.

    At first I was against this, but over time I’m warming to the idea. I’ll happily leave it in the hands of JT and TL.

    The stupidest justification for selecting a player, yet it just keeps popping up...

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
