An erratic club for an erratic player in Lukosius. It's almost too perfect.

Tigers could very well have picks 1, 6, 9, 13, 16, 21, 22.

They also have a plethora of later picks to target future picks and Brisbane's first rounder.

We should have a good relationship with yze and perhaps there will be deals to be done for us there.


I reckon the most interesting draft trade (outside of what we do) is North Melbourne with pick 2.

Given they have spent all their high picks in past three years on mids - Phillips, Wardlaw, Sheezel, McKercher and Duursma, they now find themselves staring down taking another one, unless they can somehow trade with the Saints (picks 7 and 8 - Battle) or Freo (picks 10 and 11) and get two picks of slightly less value.

Last year the deal would be done easily, but this year with very little between the likely top 10, both St Kilda and Freo would be reluctant to give up two picks - the Dockers will have to give one away anyway for Bolton.

So North, who would love to get two talls rated in the 6-15 category (eg: Armstrong and Trainor) in exchange for pick 2 - are stuck with deciding whether they take Langford (tall left foot mid) or O'Sullivan (classy mid/fwd Sheezel style) unless a club makes a nice but somewhat bizarre deal with them.

i think one of the things that is easy to forget is that afl players are afl players because, well, they grew up idolising other afl players

as such, it makes sense that they want to go and play for the club that they supported - it's a definite advantage for the likes of the filth (perryman), meth coke (baker), and the crom (cumming)

he's a great get for them given their age and list demographics

Shame we could never land Pendlebury and Buddy who were reputed to be Dee’s fans when young.

same happened for gunston at the crom, where he was the best young player winner or some such, and had the reward bestowed upon him withdrawn when he went to dingley

  • 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.

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    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.
