If you're curious about point values and bid matching, use the second tab of the spreadsheet in the OP found here:
https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/2018-final-afl-draft-order.1179329/



Sydney, North Melbourne and Collingwood may all still be involved tonight if bids are placed on their NGA and f/s prospects. If you're a Melbourne, Essendon or Hawthorn fan, you get the night off!

Yay only 1 round of picks

And how come the spreadsheet has Eagles 1st pick as round 1?

It automatically marks compensation picks as the colour of the round it's attached to, but you're correct. Pick 20 is not tonight, it'll be the first pick tomorrow.

Probably going to miss most of the excitement and massive **** ups, but looking forward to hearing all about it...

The Age article today has given me high hopes of a major screw up....

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

Such a wankfest that the draft is being held over two nights.

Just put us out of our misery already.

 

[Gavin Excell]

It will be a fizzer because more than half the competition wont feature tonight in selections

Yeah, they didn't foresee that, unsurprisingly.

Isn’t it only 4 teams that won’t feature tonight?

West coast
Essendon
Melbourne
Hawthorn

Sorry you are correct

Thought tonight was top 10 only

So where can you hear or watch the draft live. 5AA not doing it here.

 

[LordC]

Allowing 5 minutes per pick with 23 odd picks when bids are factored in that is almost two hours of draft. That is plenty once you factor in interviews and presentations it could finish as late as 10 pm.

Free trial of Kayo, watch the draft, then cancel

Thanks muchly

Hope there is a trade tonight though

Anyone figured this out? I'm only seeing radio/draft tracker in the app with a Live Pass.

 

[Chism]

I still don't think a trade is done tonight.

 

[kaiserchief13]

I expect King brothers to be taken 2 and 3 by GC to stop go home factor

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Giants must have a player in mind that seems overkill for a 2 position upgrade

Doubt it. If they wanted them why not trade down. Could get them at 4-6.

Lukosius and one of Rozee or Rankine.

Still feel you take Rankine and back your system. Everyone said McCluggage was a flight risk when drafted by Brisbane

In the top 10 a two position upgrade can mean everything.

27 would surely be coming back the other way?

Just came online with the "starting soon" screen.

You’d hope so
