Wasn't expecting this. Glad we took another one!The ghost of Clayton remains strongKey forwards are the new ruckman, great if you've got an elite one but it's the smaller fellas that actually matter!Greeves especially looks too good not to take a punt on, must be some significant concerns (beyond fitness or speed) on him2 HOURS OF THIS [censored] TO PASS !Is that a FIFTH rounder trade?Crows love drafting KPP'sBlake Oudshoorn-BennierWe want B.O.B!In the toilets at a BBQ!MELBOURNE has added to its forward line mosquito fleet, selecting the Gippsland Power’s Thomas Matthews with pick No. 30 in the 2025 Telstra AFL National Draft. The Demons could have found value in the Gippsland captain, after a knee injury left the 171cm forward sidelined for much of 2025 and put a ceiling on his draft prospects. In 2024 the powerful tackling machine thrived on pressure and powerful athleticism, bringing plenty of x-factor to kick 18 goals in 13 matches. A dynamic pre-season this year, including four goals in a trial match for Vic Country, had Matthews poised to make a name for himself before injury hit. Despite his height, Matthews is a pocket rocket in every sense of the word, regularly flying high to pull down soaring grabs. Matthews joins fellow small forward Latrelle Pickett who was taken at pick No. 12 in last night’s first round.Lots of options for usThredgold looks good in the air Bit underwhelmed by EmmettI'd grab Phillipou7pm start time tonight?Ludo didn't look much chop in the footage I saw, will be interesting to see which way we goLooking forward to the behinds the scenes draft footageSounds like North, GWS would have snapped him upVery happy with our two picks. Loved that we were brave enough to take a small. But can't help but feel Farrow might be the one that got away, really liked the look of him Quietly relieved we didn't take Nairn. Loved his marking but didn't believe in the midfield scope, not quick or agile enough.Don't know enough about Hibbins-Hargraves to comment but I do like his name....he's one off the big timeYou'd think so. Way too much natural ability to not get draftedMy nips don't know what league he was playing inTitillating highlights Love the pick. Needed another x factor forward and got one.
