    Hope that SEN phantom draft isn't a sign of things to come

    Selecting both Smillie and Shanahan would be disappointing if all of Langford, Tauru, Reid and Travaglia are available at picks 5 and 9.

    dees internal draft board generally incredibly different to consensus rankings

    Who was it first that confirmed Windsor to us before Twomey? Was it the Age the day before.

    Twomey I reckon called it 2 or 3 days before. I remember being skeptical at the time and wishing we’d go for Curtin. Glad to be wrong

    We were linked to Windsor a fair way out, but originally with pick 13

    The Tholstrup links came way closer to the draft, after we made the trip over to grab some of his nan's roast

    That roast must’ve been exquisite

    just a different link for anyone interested

    SEN's 2024 AFL full Phantom Draft

    Richmond take Harvey Langford with 6 (7) and Alix Tauru with 10 (12).

    I'd be thrilled with Smillie, but a hard no on Shanahan.  How many 195cm forwards do we need in the squad?  Does he provide any point of difference over the players we already have in those roles?  Much better off bringing in more midfield class.

    Shanahan is much more athletic than what we have, he is much more in the Curnow mould.  I hope we get him

    Not a fan of FOS, so of it purely came down to Jagga, Draper or Langford then it's a win for us either way.

    Unfortunately there is no way Lalor lasts to our pick.

    I reckon Carlton are a chance to take Draper

    Did anyone else notice on Gettable that Cal linked us to Whitlock? It’s the first time I’ve heard that link, and I’m not even sure which brother he was referring to.

    We’ve had a link to Jack previously (per Marc McGowan in the Age).

    ABC have had a go at a phantom:

    If Richmond don't take Lalor at pick 1, would North consider him at pick 2 over Tauru? I am really curious about this because the Dusty type would feel a bit like the icing on the cake for what they're trying to build midfield wise.

    Just going on the ABC guide. The top 6 is almost set

    1 Lalor

    2 Tauru

    3 O'Sullivan

    4 Draper

    5 Smith

    6 Langford

    It's going to be a tough decision on who the Dees pick up at 5 out of Smith and Langford better them choosing than me it would be a nightmare.

    7 to 9 are a bit murkier.

    Apparently St.Kilda are interested in Smillie, but I'm not sure anyone in the top 10 will pick him.

    7 Travaglia

    8 Armstrong

    9 Allan

    Shanahan and Reid are also in the mix at 9.

    I haven't included Ashcroft because it makes no difference he's going to Brisbane.

    I just dropped our first round (27 picks in total) mock draft on YouTube.  Have a look and let me know what you think:

    I wouldn’t be sure of that. Lalor is still the pick 1 favourite but Cal sounds nervous.

    The North and Adelaide pick swap seems genuinely possible. And Draper to Carlton has momentum too.

    Every chance Cal’s phantom looks like this.

    1. FOS (Rich)
    2. Lalor (Adel) or Draper
    3. Draper (Carl) or Lalor/Langford/Smith 
    4. Tauru (North).

    Would be nice if it went like this..

    2. Langford (Adel)

    3. Draper (Carl)

    4. Tauru (North)

    5. Lalor (Melb)

    • 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 return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      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.
