Eagles want CDT

Yes, but they could be tempted to go for more high end talent, in particualr a local who won't be there at pick 13 (or whatever it becomes). 1, 5, 6 & 13 is a very handy reset, with additional asset for next year. Something like 2, 34, 41 (2026 4th) for 5, 6 & 2026 2nd. Essedon then could trade a combination of their picks to Cartlon for 11. West Coast then have 4 high end players, rather than 3.

Confused Looking For GIF by Looney Tunes

From AFL website: A reminder that Cal Twomey's famous Phantom Draft will drop later tonight.

So it might be a little later this year.

  1. WCE - Duursma

  2. GCS - Uwland (matching WCE's bid)

  3. CAR - Dean (matching WCE's bid)

  4. WCE - CDT

This would be elite shenanigans from WCE, effectively making Carlton burn an extra first round pick to match the bid for Dean (compared to if he fell to our pick)

The reason Carlton are trading the picks out is that WC have likely signalled they are serious about bidding that high. The shenanigans will be if they don't bid now.

 

This reminds me of that time we were waiting for info from the ‘Demon Forevers’ BBQ 🍖


Farrow and Nairn according to Twomey.

Cumming and Robey to the Tigers.

X Taylor and Sharp to Essendon with the two picks before ours.

No surprises at the top.


I’m happy with that. Fox footy compares Farrow to Jordan Dawson, can play off half back and midfield, decent kick.

Most importantly is versatile, we love versatility

lacks a proper x factor type at one of our picks (probably an unfair statement on Nairn)

I’ve said it before but I just feel that talent drops off significantly just as our picks begin

Very much hope to be proven wrong


Please let us pick from either Taylor or Farrow. I think they have the highest upside of those left available in the top 10 with some high upside for various roles down the line and both could make an impact right away.

If Essendon opt to go Taylor/Farrow with their first picks I will be so disappointed. I can see this happening as they know we're not going to pick Sharp so they can grab him with Carlton's pick.

If this happens, I get the sense that the next group of players that we would be picking from are a bit of a drop off in in terms of potential (Dovastan, Schubert, Phillipou, Lindsay etc.)

I hope we attempted to trade our first pick and gold coast's F1, for one of Richmond's picks and a future second/third.

That way we could guarantee getting one of Robey, X Taylor and Cumming.

Then use our second pick for Nairn since we are so keen on him.

Gold Coast's F1 will be a late teens pick next year anyway.

I think Essendon would be worried about another club offering us a good deal to take Sharp

Adelaide could offer 16 and a future first for example - we might not say no to that

Praying that is true and will force them to pick Sharp.

Richmond picking Cumming has worked in our favour with Essendon having to ensure they pick the next best mid in Sharp.

Grlj to Hawks at #14 would be very annoying

  • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

    It’s Game Day and the Demons have made the long trip west to take on Fremantle tonight at Optus Stadium. Can Melbourne make it two from two to start the season, and what are you hoping to see from the Dees under the lights in Perth?

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
