No they will take Draper SA boy and is also better than Langford.

That's because Draper is going to the Crows.

The draft is done months in advance that's why Cal knows so much they spoonfeed him. Melbourne always give inside info going back to the Burgan days. Mark my words there are no surprises in the draft anymore. We will be getting Langford and Allen.

How has Howes been going? Hasn't been mentioned much mainly Jefferson and Bowey.

With preseason training and Cal's phantom draft coming out I've picked my best 23 and Casey best 23. B: Lever, May, McDonald HB: Salem, Petty, McVee C: Windsor, Rivers, Langdon HF: Petracca, Turner, Pickett F: Fritsch, van Rooyen, Jefferson FOLL: Gawn, Oliver, Viney IC: Bowey, Sparrow, Langford, Chandler SUB: Sharp EMERG: Melksham, Allen, Tholstrup Casey B: Hore, Adams, D.Smith HB: Howes, Andrew, Moniz-Wakefield C: Woewodin, Laurie, Brown HF: Spargo, Fullerton, Sestan F: McAdam, Kentfield, Melksham FOLL: Campbell, Tholstrup, Allen IC: Mentha, Verrall, Henderson, Billings

I know that's my best team not rnd 1 team. Rnd 1 team is Melksham into the 18 and Tholstrup to become sub.

Due to preseason training and phantom drafts I have changed the team again. B: Lever, May, McDonald HB: Salem, Petty, McVee C: Windsor, Rivers, Langdon HF: Petracca, Turner, Pickett F: Fritsch, van Rooyen, Chandler FOLL: Gawn, Oliver, Viney IC: Howes, Sparrow, Sharp, Ja.Smith SUB: Melksham Casey B: Hore, Adams, D.Smith HB: Bowey, Andrew, Moniz-Wakefield C: Billings, Laurie, Brown HF: Spargo, Armstrong, Sestan F: McAdam, Jefferson, Kentfield FOLL: Campbell, Tholstrup, Woewodin IC: Verrall, Fullerton, Mentha, Pick 79, Casey youngster

Just going on the ABC guide. The top 6 is almost set 1 Lalor 2 Tauru 3 O'Sullivan 4 Draper 5 Smith 6 Langford It's going to be a tough decision on who the Dees pick up at 5 out of Smith and Langford better them choosing than me it would be a nightmare. 7 to 9 are a bit murkier. Apparently St.Kilda are interested in Smillie, but I'm not sure anyone in the top 10 will pick him. 7 Travaglia 8 Armstrong 9 Allan Shanahan and Reid are also in the mix at 9. I haven't included Ashcroft because it makes no difference he's going to Brisbane.

Well there's one person happy that Petty is back down back is Picket Fence. I think it will free up Rivers to play predominately midfield and allows Petracca to play more up forward. B: Lever, May, McDonald HB: Salem, Petty, McVee C: Windsor, Rivers, Langdon HF: Petracca, Turner, Pickett F: Fritsch, van Rooyen, Chandler FOLL: Gawn, Oliver, Viney IC: Howes, Sparrow, Sharp, Ja.Smith SUB: Melksham

What I don't understand is if there are supposedly 2 quality cat B's. Why wouldn't we promote Moniz-Wakefield instead of using pick 83 so we could take both Mentha and Andrew as Cat B's.

There's always a top 10 player that slides and I think it will be Smillie I don't see him as top 10 material. It will take balls for a recruiter to pick up a player who had a bad year and lacks intensity just because he's tall and can kick. Between 11 and 20 I see him getting picked I think Hynes will get picked up before him.

We won't be picking up Smillie. We won't pick a player with intensity issues. Jack Watts being the main reason.

I'd like to see us use Riak Andrew at pick 83 keep the rookie picks for Mentha and Yze. He fills a need at CHB. B: Lever, May, McVee HB: Salem, McDonald, Rivers C: Windsor, Petracca, Langdon HF: Pickett, Petty, Chandler F: Fritsch, van Rooyen, Turner FOLL: Gawn, Oliver, Viney IC: Howes, Sparrow, Sharp, Ja.Smith SUB: Melksham Casey B: Hore, Adams, Moniz-Wakefield HB: Bowey, Andrew, Woewodin C: Billings, Laurie, Brown HF: Sestan, Armstrong, McAdam F: Fullerton, Jefferson, Kentfield FOLL: Campbell, Tholstrup, Spargo IC: Verrall, Yze, Mentha, D.Smith, Casey youngster

5 Smith 9 Armstrong

I don't really want Mithen in also just being a bit conservative with A.Mackin considering she's done her knee. Hope we can trade Mithen TBH.

I'd try and keep the same team for next year considering how many players we lost this season. I'd hold on to Harris she could be a real weapon at CHB next year. I think Colvin can play for 1 more year. I think Paxman has to retire. Watt has already retired and Madigan has been delisted. My best team for next year would be: B: Colvin, Gillard HB: Chaplin, Harris, Goldrick C: B.Mackin, Purcell, McNamara HF: Hore, Campbell, Zanker F: Bannan, Gall FOLL: Pearce, Hanks, Heath IC: Fitzsimon, Lampard, Mithen, Pisano, Wotherspoon EMERG: D.Taylor, A.Mackin, Beasley

I see Rivers starting at half back but also in the midfield rotation.

My Rolling squad B: Lever, May, McVee HB: Salem, McDonald, Rivers C: Windsor, Petracca, Langdon HF: Pickett, Petty, Chandler F: Fritsch, van Rooyen, Turner FOLL: Gawn, Oliver, Viney IC: Howes, Sparrow, Sharp, Reid SUB: Melksham Casey B: Hore, Adams, Moniz-Wakefield HB: Bowey, Fullerton, Woewodin C: Billings, Laurie, Brown HF: Spargo, Armstrong, Sestan F: McAdam, Jefferson, Kentfield FOLL: Campbell, Tholstrup, Pick 83 IC: Verrall, Yze, Mentha, Smith, Casey youngster

I'm going on the phantom form guide so ATM we are taking Reid with pick 5 and Armstrong with pick 9. B: Lever, May, McVee HB: Salem, McDonald, Rivers C: Windsor, Petracca, Langdon HF: Pickett, Petty, Chandler F: Fritsch, van Rooyen, Turner FOLL: Gawn, Oliver, Viney IC: Howes, Sparrow, Sharp, Melksham, Reid Casey B: Hore, Adams, Moniz-Wakefield HB: Bowey, Fullerton, Woewodin C: Billings, Laurie, Brown HF: Spargo, Armstrong, Sestan F: McAdam, Jefferson, Kentfield FOLL: Campbell, Tholstrup, pick 83 IC: Verrall, Yze, Mentha

We have to start poaching players from the VFL like Frankston have done we only need to get 3 or 4 and we will be set.

I I'd love to you or others do a top 100 list and I'll use it as a playlist.

Couldn't have picked a worse time to be injured Hore? Mithen is a spud, should have went to Geelong when she had the chance, must be traded. Fancy playing in Cairns this time of year pathetic scheduling.

When did he say that? We already picked up Campbell.
