The word is out that the Senior Coach needs to have a win now plan, so what type of plan do you think the new coach will have for the National Draft.
Firstly though, so proud of everyone that we have got to the last game of the season and haven't started crapping on about the Draft
But if we...
Nathan Buckley wrote the most important article of the year (to me) this week, when he criticised the media as a whole for the treatment of our latest #1 draft pick, of whom, is required to conform to a system of expectation from a variety of external forces - the club he joins, and the...

As with previous editions from previous years, this spreadsheet will update automatically during the season.
I will also try to post a screenshot of it once the round is over for posterity and so that the most up to date information is accessible in case the spreadsheet breaks for any reason...
That’s right folks, it’s that time of the season, and I thought while we have a thread for an official BF listing, this is the place to advertise your own.

From Cal Twomey, afl.com.au
"THIS year's NAB AFL Draft pool is dividing opinion. There is genuine top-end talent, but probably not...
Finn Maginness will make the AA team. The Metro MVP is a three horse race between him, McAsey and Rowell. Plus there needs to be someone tied to a Victorian club in there.

Welcome to the 2019 edition of the LemmingMasters guide to the 2019 draft.
If you want some indepth knowledge with regards to random players, you're better off asking in the Slice of Pie or Knightmare phantom draft boards. They watch a lot more junior football than myself. I go to a few live...
Just the one game this week, but it's the pick of the bunch. Saturday June 15, 11am at Optus Stadium.
Curtain raiser for the Fremantle/Port Adelaide game, so I'd recommend Fremantle fans get down there early to check it out. Doesn't look like there's a TV broadcast, so YouTube will be the best...

So now that the mid season draft is done, we look to the end of season for our mature agers. The main prospects from the VFL for me are:
Mitch Hibberd (Williamstwon): Leading the Liston Trophy for me right now, has had an excellent year playing as an inside midfielder.
Reuben William...

With the AFL gaining greater insight into the issues surrounding concussion, would you expect to see any form of compensation for teams that have players retire early due to concussion (or other injuries)?
I can see the AFL having some sort of system in place for concussions, so as to give the...
Yes I know its an American idea but the results yesterdays NBA lottery resulted in should encourage the AFL to introduce a lottery.
The New Orleans Pelicans who only had a 6% chance of getting the #1 pick ended up with it.
