Last years Pre Season draft we saw Ben Cousins get a lifeline at Richmond and this year we see another 4 delisted players go to a new club in Joel MacDonald, Adam McPhee, Daniel Bradshaw & Scott Harding along with 3 young players in Dylan Grimes, Ryan Neates & Kyle Hardigham.

The 2009 National draft is done and while many missed out, 80 odd found clubs and we will review the clubs picks and who pulled surprises and which club looks to be the winner.

We look at each club and go through what they are likely to target in this week National Draft. Let us know what you think and as a fan of your club who you would like to see in your teams colours.

I was looking at this years delistings and I was wondering surely the players that are unlucky and delisted could be told about the knife hanging over their head before the trade week so they could get a trade to another club.

We will list the official trades as they come and the various discussion of possible trades as they come up during the week. Comment on your clubs trades and give us your comments on what you think.

Kick2Kick looks at every clubs need and every rumour going around and lists which players will likely be traded in the last chance for clubs to get their playing list sorted before the Gold Coast in 2011.

Geelong got redemption from their shock loss in the Grand Final last year with the 2009 premiership beating St Kilda. It also saw several players make their debuts and cement their spot in the 22.

At the end of the day it does not matter how many records were beaten or how many games you won, they lost the grand final so its been a disappointing year.

In the last few years we have been lucky to be blessed by good close Grand Finals and this year we got another cracker of a game with Geelong ending up coming from behind to win with St Kilda only able to kick 3 behinds in the last quarter.

K2K previews that one day in September…AFL Grand Final 2009 between Geelong and St.Kilda.
It should be an absolute bewtayyy!
