WC was overselling Curtain. What's wrong with him? Have they tricked Adelaide into a mistake?

 

I’m glad we have a player to swap for Petty next year now

 

Bugger. O'Sullivan picked by the cats two spots ahead of our next pick.

Can anyone explain why we couldn't pick Mac Andrew as a Melbourne academy player last year, when gold coast are allowed to pick 2 academy players in the top 10 this year?

The rules changed. We missed Mac by one year. Could not bid inside the top 20. Mac went 5. The suns have their own set of rules

 

Looking for upsides;

Not taking Curtin, and Adelaide trading up to make sure they got Curtin, suggests both clubs think Petty will be staying with Melbourne longer term.

Windsor allegedly has speed, agility, defensive work ethic and 'the best delivery in the draft' in both skill and vision.

If the product matches the packaging, it really will change the way we can operate.

He also racks up more running bounces than our whole team does combined!

What happened to our pick 11 now 13?

Gold Coast academy players.

For example, North bid on Walter with pick 3. Walter gets drafted at pick 3 to Gold Coast, but North still has their pick, so it pushes back to 4.

Two academy bids so far, so our picks slide back 2 spots.

Well we've been bumped up because of other clubs trading 

No we haven’t. We’ve been bumped because of Academy picks.


Interesting GWS pick

The GWS pick looks stoked to be playing in front of 4,000 people every second week. 

Is this 'draft night' just an open bar for a bunch of 18 year olds and their mates?

 

Kenny Powers!!!!

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
