PICKS # 26 & 31 (formerly # 23 & 28)
[censored] highlights. But there's something there. A cross between Cameron Ling and Ben Brown was my first impression, but I might be being misled by certain visual primers.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - KADE KOLODJASHNIJ
Kolo replaces Dom but he also provides defensive cover ahead of Fritsch, whose effectiveness waned once also played out of position. Meaning we also get Fritsch back up the ground or on a wing.

2018 AFL NAB NATIONAL DRAFT ORDER
Streamlined. Maybe peeps can add the father/son and academy prospects in brackets beside their suitor's' next likely current pick required so we can get an idea of clubs still looking to upgrade. Also, broadly - such upcoming requirements for 2019? It's been said that clubs can still trade picks in the coming week or so - does anyone know if that includes futures? Future first for us will be projected at 16 or so. 23 plus 16 are worth more than 5. Is there still a coup left in us for 2018? I feel that with live draft trading and all the permutations re. high-end SA prospects and interstate basket-cases at the front end of the draft we could be in for a crazy draft night. And we've shown that we've been ahead of the game as to draft alterations before.

Hey Petraccattack - did I get your Kade Kolodjashnij quiz right? I'm applying for a job tomorrow and need to know if I can tell them of my Mensa-level IQ.

You too Ethan? Wow, this thread is cut-throat. I'm just gonna slink quietly back back into the background. Exit the Skuit.

That's part of my point. Three beers in and I don't care if some other street kid tells me I could have got my six-pack for a buck cheaper. P.s - I see Oscar more in the orange rather than floating role after this trade period. Come at me binman.

If I scored a quarter of a million beers and 40,000 packs of ciggies at retail for under $200 grand then Gil himself would probably proclaim me as having an IQ above 150.

Jeeps, peeps are tense today. Was an off-hand tongue-cheek comment. For the record, I don't want or expect Pert to get involved. But love the notion of him taking Bell aside and telling the small child to grow up.

On another, perhaps more esoteric note, when I lived in Cambodia I would quite often flick a fiver to some street kid to go and fetch me a six-pack and a packet of cigarettes, with the unspoken proviso that he or she could keep the change. When they returned with my bounty, I didn't once ask how much they scored my desired goods for. That is this - or at least how it should be viewed.

It's okay deanox. I was just curious if Pert was on board yet. If so, while I am fully aware list management isn't part of his mandate, and absolutely shouldn't be, my suggestion was that one experienced football administrator could give advice to a strutting newbie about best practices and serving the interests of a footy club rather than a personal ego. That is all.

Where's Gary Pert at the moment? I feel like he should be having a quiet friendly word in the ear of Bell about what's what.

Question for yourself and the other talent watchers Chaser - this year's crop was initially hailed as a super-draft, then more recently there have been suggestions of a sharp drop-off after the front-end. If accurate, do you know roughly in AFL circles where the steep decline is expected, and what is your own opinion?

Freo give us 5 and 30 and some swapsies to make it appear like they had a big win The picks however are/or will be worth more than 5 and 23 in a points-based system. Regardless, everyone is up in arms. We give 5 and 30 to GC for May and KK (and maybe another seemingly irrelevant swapsies). Everyone's arms are now flapping at full steam, threatening a widespread meltdown. AFL commentators and pundits say stupid stuff. Some posters on Demonland patiently explain the benefits of the trade while others don't bother.

If anyone actually cares to uncover Enter the Dragon's former or current alternative Demonland guise just throw me a few leads to get the ball rolling and I'm pretty sure I can sort it out before the conclusion of trade week. Me Stuie (an insult to ETD) Curry & Beer (I don't think so from memory - abrasive but not dynamic enough). Range Rover (I don't recall - but a new 'Rangie' popped up last year before he was sent packing). Anyone else?

Not sure if mentioned, but can we now orchestrate a reverse Mitch Clark scenario and get Jesse to the Gold Coast? Everything about it seems right. For all parties involved.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - BRAYDON PREUSS
We're about to sign a ready-to-go ruckman with the league's greatest potential on a four year deal for sfa. With a project in Bradtke, ruck department nominally sorted for the next half a decade. Such a difficult juggle nowadays. Big tick. Fantastic MFC.

This is not a shot at you Patches, as I believe this is probably likely, but what does a club have to gain by talking down a player's trade value publicly?
