I remember someone saying at draft time if MFC get Viney and Wines there will be explosions in the MFC midfield. Still didn't take him. Sometimes wonder if Viney wasn't F/S would we have taken him?

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - CHRISTIAN PETRACCA
Pick 2 on petranca, deal pick 3 to North for a player and their first rounder, they can take Brayshaw. Done

The 2014 AFL National Draft
Going off their performance against freo I can't see saints finishing last anymore, although who knows if this was an aberration or the start of a mini revival? I can see GWS sending a little FU to the players wanting out and saying if u want to leave we will ship u off, but don't think u can walk out on us and be greedy enough to chose the state, we will get premium compensation if u chose to do that. GWS probably are playing a dangerous game being over accommodating to players wanting out. They will soon see themselves being a feeder club

The 2014 AFL National Draft
The draft hasn't saved us previously because we have squandered the picks and developed poorly. High draft position doesn't guarantee success but it gives u a better chance. I still feel we are a few quality players off being a competitive team and our best chance of draft success right now is getting picks that are good enough to gazump a few teams and do a deal for proven, more mature players. In saying that Salem proves roosy knows what he's doing at the draft table and I have faith we are going to be better in the medium term because of this

The 2014 AFL National Draft
If Cameron wants out he will probably end up at Brisbane- depending on whether the saints tank or not. That leaves GWS with pick 1 and us with either 2/3 or maybe 4 as our first pick. If petranca is as good as ppl are saying he's GWS bound. We won't have the picks in the kitty do do another Tyson deal- unless spud leaves and we package both pics together, but is the talent in this draft strong enough for someone to deal for 2 picks inside the top 5? Who knows

BH turns into rpfc when his hunger is satisfied by a Snickers. Like in the ad.

With what Wines brings to the midfield, and what we lack, I am still a little upset we didn't draft Wines. What is this thing our recruiting guys have with drafting the kid with the silkiest skills over the kids that are more likely to have an immediate impact. If it was up to half the posters on this forum to do our drafting, we wouldn't be in the midfield mire we are currently in. I would have chose Wines, and he and Viney together in that midfield would have created explosions. What do we have now? Jones, Viney and a mixed bag of NQR'S. Can we please look at a couple of in and under ball magnet midfield tough nuts this time around MFC.

People not wanting to come to the dees ends next year, when they realize what playing in a team with Viney means. Am I happy? Absolutely over the moon. We got Hogan and Viney, I am wrapped! We are instantly a better team without kicking a ball. Now MFC finish off this dream result for me, and get Wines and Viney together- leading by example, showing the rest of the team how it's done. What a day!

Really haven't seen much of Caddy at all, but for those who have, how would he rate if he was at Melbourne? Better than Chunk? I feel if he could impact in our midfield and all it took was pick #13 to get him & an understanding that Viney is off limits- then go for it. I'll back the club with this call but would love if any posters know anything about him. Had a look at his 2010 highlights- although from 2 years ago he looked very handy. Could Viney and Caddy combo strike fear in the hearts of opposition. Need more info on Caddy someone please

I have to be honest and say I haven't seen much of Caddy but if there's better out there in the draft surely we will go for them instead. I just hope the recruiting team make every pick count as this is our most important draft in my memory.

Josh Caddy
I haven't seen too much of Caddy so obviously I'd trust the club on this but he'd want to be good to even consider giving up 13 for. Feel that there will be many quality players left around that number so not really fussing about Caddy at this stage.

Ben Cousins arrested on drug charges
No it isn't. Imposing sanctions on drug users does not work. It forces drug users underground, isolates them to a life with no hope. Punishing drug users isn't the answer, as you say has it worked so far? No it hasn't. I remember reading an article on the decriminalization of drugs in Portugal where they replace jail time with actual help through therapists, psychologists etc. The number of drug users went down instead of up and the number of people seeking help went up- as the stigma had been removed. I can't find it now.

Ben Cousins arrested on drug charges
An addict is an addict regardless of their background and at the end of the day their lives are in turmoil. Obviously some of you people who have no sympathy because of Ben's background have never had any experience with drugs or addicts and how it their lives. Maybe you should just stay safe in your care free lives with your slipers and your cups of tea and rainbows and not be so quick to judge others?

Ben Cousins arrested on drug charges
Lol Biffen do you think an addict cares about the public's perception of them? They have a problem and they need help- not judgement from forum heroes such as yourself.

Ben Cousins arrested on drug charges
He needs focus in his life. Usually having a kid provides that focus, but it seems this isn't the case here. Feel bad for him, drug habits are hard to kick but it can be done. Hopefully he can kick his too before it ruins the rest of his life.
