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...

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
