This may be a dumb question - will the draft be televised, whether on free-to-air or Foxtel? Or is it just a case of getting internet updates as it happens?

Not a dumb question at all, as far as I'm aware it will not be on live at all, you would probably have to go online, there will probably be a recap at about 3pm on channel 10 hosted by Andrew Mahr and the other guy and I think there will be a recap on Fox Sports at about 5 hosted by Clinton Grybas.

I know for a few years it WAS televised either on FTA or Foxtel, but as far as I can find, not this year.

The only way to watch it is live on AFL.com. Their coverage is slow, patchy, poor quality and badly organised, but if you want to watch the draft it is your only option.

Is broadcasted live on SEN, but the AFL don't allow them to stream it on the net, so you can only listen on a radio.

Interesting, cheers guys. I guess SEN is the best option in that case.

Or you can read it here, where those with a radio will post instant updates about who is taken :)

Top 5 - lock it in:
1. Kreuzer
2. Cotchin
3. Masten
4. Morton
5. Gourdis


They should only play AFL games now when it's raining. Slow games of footy are so much better to watch.

Yes I had him going in the mid to late first round too :oops: :oops: based on what I had read on Bigfooty....


The wraps on him were big.....so there must be something astray??? attitude, fitness??/ who knows...

But If he was still left for our pick in the rookie draft I would be mighty pleased.
