    No that would be our next pick Tholstrup. Windsor will help with speed of ball movement, connection and most importantly efficiency between our mids and forwards which has been an issue for years and is a big reason why we have gone out in straight sets in final’s two years on a row. Can also score a goal himself. Also provides a lot of chase down tackles which would indicate a competitive nature. Our team is all inside and not much outside., let alone guys that can hit a target by foot.Glad we have addressed this personally getting in Billings and now Windsor. Welcome to the club Caleb.

    Josh Kelly anyone?

    Oliver wasn't expected to be a high pick either. GWS must have rated Curtin so high that they literally traded out to get away from him.

    Windsor was best player available, If we went needs we would've gone a key forward or key back.

    GWS would've taken Windsor after us. He was highly rated.

    From the outside its impossible to tell who is a reach or not. 

    A lot of people had Curtain as a top 5 pick, Leake as a top 10 pick, Darcy WIlson as a borderline top 10 pick.  No one had Gothard as low as 10.  Tholstrop similarly was considered in the mid teens.  

    It looks like Windsor, Gothard and Tholstrop were higher up clubs' draft boards than expected. And not just by Melbourne - sounds like if we hadn't picked Windsor, GWS would have at 8, or somone in that 9-12 range.  Same with Tholstrop - was apparently in the mix at Essendon's pick and would have been taken by St Kilda after us.  Gothard too had interest from St Kilda, Sydney and GWS.

    Is it just me or is there a hint of the great man himself R Flower.

    Obviously, a big call but the way he handballs and moves reminds me of a young Robbie. We can only dream.

    At the end of the day when you have someone like JT calling the shots you back him in with any 'reach' picks.

    No such thing as a reach, just means media has gotten their previous draft expectations wrong

    Don't know why but thought the same.

    Seems to have a nice low ball drop which is often a sign of good kickers.

    Tracc could learn something!

    In his highlights the two left-handed handballs in traffic are almost exactly the way Robbie handballed - we can dream

    We have gone totally for needs. We have some talls and Jefferson to add in time.

    Windsor brings us a total outside running machine on the Lingers style up and back but is more highly skilled and will kick more goals.

    Kolt is an X factor half forward and potential mid who will excite fans and annoy and embarrass the opposition. Total fan favourite with a swagger and style. Let the MCC members get out of their seats once this dynamo gets among the big boys on the G. 

    Both are 185cm plus but seem taller in their highlights. Neither will take a backward step it looks like from their tapes either. 

    Bring them on as excitement machines to end our mundane forward thrusts. 

    Well done again JT.

    Thought exactly the same thing. Both hold the ball well in front of them when handballing with their left. And both seem to glide across the ground.

    Looks to have a nice turn of speed and smart delivery but I don't think he's got enough class to warrant being selected in the top 10. 

    Depends what you call class and Caleb’s got it. Smooth running long kick goal scoring and great link man on the wing. 
    I’ll back JT’s judgement against yours Danny any day or night at the G!

    Exactly Oliver and Jackson where reaches at the time. We have one of the best in the business leading a team following these kids from around 14 for 3 years . They know way more about them than any pundit on the radio or tv or forum

    I would say every poster on here would back JT over any other poster. 
    We can still all have opinions and be civil about it. No need to be shoot down other posters for the sake of it. 
    By the way every form guide that was published during the season agreed with Danny.

    So in summary we drafted clones Robbie Flower and Allen Jacovich?

    that’ll do

    So would I! He's a gun recruiter.

    I just saw the new highlights package on melbournefc.com.au in which he looked stronger in the contest than the reel I saw prior on AFL.com.au.

    We have seen how important the wing position is in modern footy, particularly on the MCG. He looks to be a very skilful and speedy wingman with a big leap.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
