We haven't nominated him as a father son as of yet. I highly doubt we will select him this year because he's form hasn't been up to the level that is worth being drafted. My inkling is he may suit up for Oakleigh Chargers next year as an overage player.

I agree. I am not all that enamoured with Taura to be honest and pick 5 is a ridiculous reach for an intercept 3rd tall intercept defender who's a poor kick of the footy. I do love his competitiveness though. Even if it's not Smillie at 5, to me it's gotta be a elite young midfielder whether that's Langford, Draper or Smith.

I think Carlton also love Draper big time.

I follow this guy closely and enjoy his draft content. Well worth the follow.

Absolute gun.

Melbourne won't be moving up or down the draft order. They'll stay as it is.

From the review. Sam Radford will work alongside Nathan as midfield coach. Together, they aim to maximise our current midfield group’s strengths while integrating new talent in the midfield mix. Mids with our first two picks?

Nah I like him mate.. he's an absolute beauty! Do you think 9 is too much of a reach? Any inkling if we have said anything to him around our 2nd pick?

Would not mind it one bit if we took him with 9. Enormous upside in terms that he could genuinely explode in the next couple of years with his sheer power and strength. Probably similar to Chard Warner who was a 3rd round draft pick. It's such a jason Taylor thing to do to reach for a particular player they like.

Trade at the end of next year please.

Can't knock Greens communication level of recent.. Doing okay so far in my opinion.

Interesting that Cooper Hynes gets a mentioned of an interest with our second pick....

The guy is delusional. I still remember him carrying on like he is now a week before Mark Neeld was sacked stomping his foot around telling everyone what a great coach Neeld was, and was openly critical of anyone here who said otherwise. This is Saty at his absolute element.

“And some of the others, like Christian and Clayton, were badly handled.” Steven Smith.

Nothing personal when I'm only checking in on my fellow compadre..

Crows are coming extremely hard for Langford as well.

What a day huh.. anyone check in on @drysdale demon and @Satyriconhome... Poor loves must be beside themselves that it's all just a media agenda once again. Anyhow, it needed to happen. Thank you and goodbye.

Gut wrenching to hear.. It's certainly every parent worse nightmare.

Not sure how I feel about this.

I'm sorry, what's the backhanded slap? I've missed something here..

I have high hopes for Howes, but not as a defender. Still think he can play his best footy as a roaming 3rd tall forward who can work up and down the ground, similar to Jack Gunston

No just media reports I've read.

It's not about safety, it's the fact that our midfield depth is a bigger need then forward. After Rivers who is 24 we have zero up and coming midfield talent coming through. Petracca, Oliver, Viney are all about to hit their 30's and then there is a significant drop. Armstrong's no different to Weideman in his draft year. Too many double grab marks or dropped marks that forwards should eat up, 2nd efforts non existent and lackadaisical in his approach. Riak Andrew, a rookie list propsect completely shut him down in a Coates game at the back end of the year and his poor body language and laziness was on show for everyone to see. Barely put up a fight.
