WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARLEY BENNELL
his management team has been harder at work than sam murray's to claim there's interest in him i am not opposed to it at all - certainly prefer him on cheap coin for a season compared to jack martin's $1.6m over two - but i just have no faith that he'll ever get his body right if we are doing a medical that means we're either very close to making an offer, i would assume? then it's up to bennell the thought of a fit and firing harley revving up the flanks at the g is tantalising... B: Jetta - May - Hibberd HB: Salem - Lever - Harmes ? Langdon - Brayshaw - Tomlinson HF: Petracca - T Mac - Bennell HF: Fritsch - Weideman - Melksham Foll: Gawn - Oliver - Viney I/c: Jones - Hannan - Petty - one of our early picks Emerg: Preuss - O Mac - ANB - our other early pick

Brodie Kemp (drafted by Carlton)
I asked a draft watcher today his thoughts on next year’s draft...he was...not complimentary Also said that he doesn’t believe a thing that is said in the media about Melbourne’s trade / draft plans as - since the regime change and Mahoney’s role change - “they don’t leak” He thinks we might trade pick 3 still but if we don’t then we’d be crazy not to pick Young

Paddy McCartin
Terrible luck From #1 pick to out of the game with under 50 games His concussion symptoms sounded horrific

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARLEY BENNELL
how many years has it been since he got through a season of football? we already have three injured for the entirety last year - four if you count kk we can't afford the risk of picking a player who is often injured when list spots are at a premium as we have four players from last year under contract who barely played, if at all pass

lovely wrap up on the kid it's funny watching kids play footy as they grow up - there's a girl who plays for my local footy club, who i've known since she was 5, who is just an out and out jet sadly i doubt we'll ever see her in aflw because she'll be playing for the opals and the wnba

Jack Martin
He doesn’t want to be with us; move on

Hayden Young (Drafted by Fremantle)
surely we could get two of @olisik's bug bears in the one draft - an inside mid (roberton? serong?) with pick 3 and a tall defender (fish mcasey) at pick 8??

Compensation for Loss of NT Academy Zone
which to me is an indication - along with already having bedford, chandler, anb, and others on our list - that all the talk we might be going for weightman with pick 8 might be just that; talk

2019 AFL National Draft Thread
Two of Twomey’s also-see picks don’t make any sense for us - first cos there’s little chance a ruckman will go top 5 in the draft, and - outside of Green - us picking an inside mid with our first pick similarly doesn’t make any sense

Jack Martin
we won't draft him unless he actually wants to come to us there's no point having an employee who doesn't want to be there

Phantom Drafts
go-home factor plus recent history of sanfl kids is that whilst they might play sanfl seniors and even in finals series / multiple premierships at senior level - see aish, toumpas, trengove - they tend to struggle at afl level

Brodie Kemp (drafted by Carlton)
If he’s a superstar in the making I want him If he’s a serviceable best 22 player for the next decade I’m happy with the pick, but it’s a shame we didn’t have a chance to get x / should’ve picked y If he’s a spud I never wanted him
