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!

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
