So what time do the Geelong blokes have to arrive for the draft tonight? I reckon they'd be safe on a 7:30 flight out of Melbourne.

Which was the club that took forever to announce their picks last year? Was it Freo?
The crowd should start slow clapping during the wait.

Ok I'll have a final crack at the top 12 excluding Academy picks.
1. Weitering (Carl)
2. Schache (Bris)
3. Oliver (Melb)
4. Francis (Ess)
5. Parish (Ess)
6. Ah Chee (GC)
7. Weideman (Melb)
8. Curnow (Carl)
9. Milera (Adel)
10. Burton (Carl)
11. Rioli (Rich)
12. H McKay (Adel)
That top 7 is locked in (Essendon might pick those two the other way around, but that really makes no difference).
8-12 is completely unpredictable, with the most likely of all of those selections being Milera to us at 9, which will likely have the flow-on effect of Richmond taking Rioli.
I really think those other 3 picks are likely to be Curnow, Burton and H McKay (2 to Carlton and one to us), but the order of those is anyone's guess.
You never know though. Maybe a Balic or Tucker gets thrown in there to shake things up. Or maybe Melbourne pass on Weideman. Perhaps Essendon have a last minute change of heart and take someone other than Parish. Maybe Carlton or us take Collins. Who knows really. Enjoy the night everyone.

Thanks Vader....Looks like Sydney could be putting all their eggs in 1 basket. Mills would need to win a Brownlow to make up for the deadwood they would be taking on board.
What is Paige Cardona going on about with draft tampering and Charlie Curnow?

He's stated that he doesn't want to be drafted by an interstate club

I was more interested in a Victorian's feeling like draft night is when all clubs are equal. Lol. Not even close.

Reckon Carlton take McKay ahead of Curnow because they know we wont take him at 9. Allowing them to get Curnow and McKay.
They should weight first year players contracts dependant on when they get drafted rather than just by which round they get drafted in. That way anyone talking themselves down the draft order would also be talking themselves out of money. Works perfectly in the NFL.

Trigg, Craig and wooden spoons. Good luck to him.
On the plus side, he will get a longer off season each year to go out and get drunk.

yeah well... if you take out all the gift picks, academy selections, monetary handouts and the like... it's pretty level
I'm desperately hoping that our apparent interest in Mackay is just Nobes and co putting out a smoke screen to try and get Carlton to take him at 8. Apart from not being a need, 200 cm players are just to high a risk of failing to take at a top 10 pick.

You may well be right. It's all very much up in the air still I think with all the ducks and drakes being played.
However, maybe Carlton end up with McKay and Burton, rather than McKay and Curnow. Wouldn't surprise me.
Would be very interesting if Curnow is still available at our second pick. I'd be pulling that trigger personally, but I'd understand if we didn't.
I agree there is something about McKay that tells me hes not going to make the grade. We must get these two picks right.

Wouldn't bother with Curnow if he has indeed made it clear he doesn't wanna leave mum and dad. We just dont need that.
Milera at 9, Burton at 13. The experts say so, 2 kids who sounds like they WANT to play for the club and are local lads.
