The thing that worries me with these so called super drafts is in reality they only become super drafts 3-5 years down the track. There's been plenty of busts picked at 9. Whilst I trust JT to get them right we can ill afford to not nail the picks we get. There's no doubt 2, perhaps 3 standouts in the top 10 this year and I don't want Carlton taking the guy we're chasing. Twomey thinks we may try to trade our picks again, it's going to be interesting viewing that's for sure.

don’t worry Roost

Carlton are just as likely if not more so, to get their pick wrong

The top 10 is stacked. More than 2 or 3 guns

    Carlton just got pick 3 for 12, 14 and Matt Owies. WC then gives 14 for Liam Baker. That is horrendous business from Wet Toast. All of it. 

    That's thoroughly embarrassing if it's true. Surely there's more to it.

    So West Coast lose pick 3 and they have to take Owies as well?!?

    When looking at these trades you have to bear in mind how this draft is rated. Carlton gave up a future first and second to get 14. We gave up a future first a second and a heap of lesser picks for 9. West Coast should get two good players at 12&14 plus Owies as steak knives. It’s a good deal for them. 
     

    Carlton rumoured to be after FOS, I’m hoping we land Langford or Lalor so don’t mind them jumping into 3.

    FOS looks a beauty.

    West Coast trading 3 for mid teens picks and 2 out of contract players in Baker and Owies, yikes. Steal for the Blues.

    Gotta be one of the worst trades I can recall, dees could have split pick 5 for that and given that to blues and then done the same trade, efficiency getting 3 for 5 for all the sense this trade makes

    Hilarious if North keep 2 or trade it and that club or North takes FOS, if that is the boy Carlton want as reported.

    Brisbane lost 228 points here... might mean they're willing to make those points up with 49 for Sharp, which is 287 points.

    They got 12, Baker and Owies for 3 and will probably get a local boy still there at 12.

    All I can say is that WC must REALLY want Baker

    Ooze must be wetting himself with 6 picks inside the top 24!

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
