The reaction videos on the AFL website are fantastic to watch !!

 

[TazHawk15]

Tom Browne on Channel 7 said that Eagles thought they moved up to pick Trent Bianco but AFL Stopped it saying the Trade Up was Illegal

Does not matter how illegal it was if it were the GCS or GWS, they AFL would have allowed it in a nano second.

Any more details? Yet they would allow GC to trade a late 20s pick for 11 and then Brisbane to spend 7mins trying to match a bid

Apparently Port received 8 calls re pick 22. There was a lot of interest in Robertson it seems

I'm bot surprised. Port did well there

I doubt it was over a lop sided offer.

First time watching the draft?

You had pick 3 and pick 10

Those picks are higher than 17 and 20

-Should have bid for green at 3
-Took a ruckmen when that's the only position you are strong in
-reached for a forward pocket with 10

I am confident we will look back on this draft and objectively agree that Melbourne did a terrible job

Ok im prepared in all good fun to have a small wager on that, in lets say 6 to 7 years when Melbourne v carlton we meet up and the loser buys the winner beers all game

So there are a few clubs left with positions for SPPs.

Who are the best of what's left?

I'm very surprised Sokol didn't even get a rookie spot. What more does the guy have to do to get on an AFL list? Absolutely killed it at WAFL level.

Wce will trial 3 players , 2 from WA and I think a SANFL player from Central Districts for one available spot ..
ex Blue Jarrod Pickett will be one of the players..

Could say same for Jye Bolton in the past

I'm guessing the Eagles wanted to trade a future pick & were rejected as per the rules. The Eagles gave up everything in order to get Kelly, which many - including myself- felt was too much and argued as much in over 900 pages of the Big Footy feed. So what is the role the AFL should take as arbiter in Trade, fixture or off-field matters? The Eagles had lost their recruitment manager and found themselves under-siege from certain corners of the media pushing an agenda for the purpose of ratings. Tim Kelly was completely vilified and yet the AFL remained silent. not for the first time! The GC trade to Geelong wasn't great, although I'm unsure if I should blame GC for once again giving away draft positions cheaply, Geelong for accepting such generous terms or the AFL for their abstinence. The fixture is another gripe. The increase in Km's traveled is becoming unprecedented if not negligent. I mean, how can one measure the affects of mild concussion or knocks on recovery or damage at altitude? The AFL... silence.The players association... silence! OK' so I'm typing though the lens of a WCE supporter, but it seems to me that if arbitration's are not money related the AFL isn't interested! Sometimes I get the impression the AFL are just a bunch of gambling, beer swigging bankers meeting at Macca's for a late night fee burger.

Good on The Suns for backing themselves in and having a crack. Reckon with their rescue package they could afford to take a punt on Sharp, in addition to go with their blue chip selections, Rowell, Anderson and Flanders.

Next year's draft is going to be almost 2014 bad apparently, so I like their line of thinking

2014 bad apparently?
Depends from where your sitting.
When i revisit 2014 i see at our first three selections- Jordan De Goey, Darcy Moore and Brayden Maynard.

If 2020 is this bad, I'll take it.
