As much as I like the Swans to win this year’s flag (and then disappear next year like the last two AFL premiers), I’ve just recovered my urge to do some death riding. 

If Port Adelaide can reproduce the form of Round 21 against the Swans, our current pick 38 will shoot up the charts to pick 36. Who knows what that little extra edge might deliver us in the hands of JT (in who we trust)?

Pre trading … 2024 picks are 5,37,45, 50,61 

[Supreme_Demon 3,916]

Hopefully Jason Taylor can work his magic.

Ideally, we should aim for 2 or even 3 picks in the top 20. But that's probably wishful thinking unless we can do some deals with Brisbane and/or Gold Coast to give them various picks for points.

A few days out from the end of the trade period, this is how the first round is looking:-

[Whispering_Jack 31,129]

In light of what some are suggesting will be a barrage of pick swaps in the next couple of days, it’s worth looking at the current draft picks held by each of the clubs at this moment in time. 

It gives perspective to the mooted swap deal between Melbourne and Essendon because, as we can see, the Bombers don’t have much of a hand to fight off a challenge for their NGA player Isaac Kako and to get seriously involved in trading. To that end, the Demons’ future first plus #28 and #40 strengths their hand considerably. 

Adelaide: 4, 46, 64
Brisbane: 32, 34, 42, 43, 45, 60, 66
Carlton: 12, 14, 69, 72, 73
Collingwood: 36, 52, 55
Essendon: 9, 31
Fremantle: 10, 11, 18, 30, 67
Geelong: 17, 38, 57, 75
Gold Coast: 6, 13, 23, 29, 41, 50, 78
GWS: 15, 16, 21, 37, 53, 56, 74
Hawthorn: 33, 71, 77

What are the odds that 1 hour in to the draft it’s still not up to pick 5?

[kryton101 411]

So dumb question, do we need a later pick to upgrade from our rookie list?

No.  You just upgrade and get a vacancy at the rookie draft A.    Rookie B is separate again.

I'm really tired of Melbourne having minimal picks in a draft, it's always 2-3 tops. This has been the case for the majority off drafts in the last 5 years.

We have at least 5 list spots to fill and we already gave up next year's first so where is the capital? It's annoying seeing other clubs with big hauls. i'd look to split 9 for 2 picks in the teens

[Demon Disciple 12,452]

I’d rather quality over quantity.
