PICK 4: Trent Cotchin

PICK 14: Scott Selwood

PICK 21: ?

PICK 53: Cyril Rioli

PICK 69: Luke Casey-Leigh

PSD PICK 3: Ben Mckinley (possible?)

Any ideas ???

 

Channel 10 reported that Cale Morton is almost certain to be drafted by Richmond with pick 2.

That means that the Eagles are the only club standing in our way of getting Cotchin.

Now given what Cotchin's dad had to say about his son moving West, there is a chance that West Coast will go for a local WA kid.

Cross your fingers and toes that things pan out this way and we land Cotchin. That would be an absolute miracle!

i cant stand people on this board sometimes. cotchin, selwood and rioli? hahaha. all 3 are potential first rounders..cotchin is a definate top 3, rioli and top 15 and selwood a top 30. keep dreaming.

That was [censored], a complete and utter media beatup. They will take him at Pick 3 if he doesn't go at Pick 2.

Surely Selwood wont be still available at 14?

If so he is a must as he is apparently the best out of the lot of them.

I've heard that too, but I've heard elsewhere (and the fact that most mock drafts have him 10+ would seem to agree with this) that in fact Joel is the best. The other three are regarded primarily as tagging players; Joel is the only one with natural creativity and a bit of genius.

Let me dream you bastards! :angry: :D

Remember we dreamed with Judd the 6 million dollar man and we got hurt so badly.

haha...sorry mate, i put question marks there for a reason...im no expert but i have seen rioli play a number of times and could be a good pick up, thats why i put him in but i cant imagine hes gonna go too early

As I said on my Cotchin thread he will get to us only if Tigers take Morton and Eagles are scared, after Judd situation, in risking another Victorian with their first pick. Given the comments in the paper they have every reason to be concerned as Cotchin could do a Judd after two years.

Not sure where you're going with Monaghan as he only played a couple of good games this year with Sandy.

Shane Valenti however would be a great steal as maybe a 4th round pick.

Lets hope CAC can snare Stefan Martin as a rookie because he is a skillful mobile ruckman.

I see Stefan Martin as a replacement for ferg'/holland. too small for a true ruck.


no but big enough for a forward and i tell you what he knows how to play it aswell

scott selwood isn't as good as people think!

agreed. he has been said to be the worst of the brothers. I wouldnt touch him. Hes a tagger at best

as for me

National Draft

pick 4 - Palmer ~ expect richmond or WCE to take cotchin regardless of where he came from. Remember WCE didnt do too bad out of the trades i dont believe with questionmarks over Judds OP. I wouldnt be supprised if Carlton take cotchin too...unlikely but O'Halpen is being moulded as the next ruckman in my opinion.

Pick 14 - Bellchambers ~ simply because we need another ruckman. Hes 199cm and great in the ruck at tap work. Can go forward and take a mark and kick a goal. Jamar is not up to standard and i have reservations on Johnson. White is retiring soon so Meesen and Bellchambers should be the next 2 youth ruckman.

pick 21- Collier - Looks good in midfield and down back. Played as CHF but at 193cm hes too small. He birsts the lines tho and could be used on the flank.

Pick 53 - Jones ~ in and under midfielder

Pick 69 - Not sure to be honest

Pre Season Draft:

Pick 3 - Darren Pfeiffer

The Dees are chasing Jared Brennan

Good news

PICK 4: Trent Cotchin ?

PICK 14: Scott Selwood ?

PICK 21: ????????????????

PICK 53: Cyril Rioli ?

PICK 69: Luke Casey-Leigh?

PSD PICK 3: Ben Mckinley???(possible??)

Any ideas..........

Kruezer at pick 21...definitely :lol:

I don't even know why I take anything you say seriously, but if we can get Brennan for nothing (i.e.- PSD), and Bailey manages to put a rocket up him, he could be worth a try.

However, if Matthews couldn't discipline him, I doubt anyone else could. Remember Cupido?

With Richmond and Carlton ahead of us in the PSD it's highly unlikely that a player like Brennan would fall to us at pick 3 in the PSD.

Even if Brennan wants $1m as reported in the Courier Mail (Jared Brennan's future clouded) the Blues would find a way to fit him into their salary cap. They have plenty of room ;) after ditching Whitnall.

I have a feeling however, that there might be a larger than usual crop of players out there including some rare jewels available at the top end of the PSD and I suspect that this is the time when CAC probably is going to be working his hardest talking with managers and persuading players who are in the mix to make themselves available. Who knows, it might even be worth leaving two places open for PSD picks if clubs are delisting to stay within the salary cap and other reasons.

Rioli at 53? Surely he will have been taken by then!

casey leigh though...love to have lukey playing for the dees!

dont forget gilchrist. rennie is a good player. played with sandy ones this year..having been overlooked at last years draft...caulfield grammar boy..mates with his brother. has worked hard this year, after school to keep training and get games with the sandy ones along side valenti, ferg, paul johnson, and our other vfl players

  • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
