Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING

    Posting unsubstantiated rumours on this website is strictly forbidden.

    Demonland has made the difficult decision to not permit this platform to be used to discuss & debate the off-field issues relating to the Melbourne Football Club including matters currently being litigated between the Club & former Board members, board elections, the issue of illicit drugs in footy, the culture at the club & the personal issues & allegations against some of our players & officials ...

    We do not take these issues & this decision lightly & of course we believe that these serious matters affecting the club we love & are so passionate about are worthy of discussion & debate & I wish we could provide a place where these matters can be discussed in a civil & respectful manner.

    However these discussions unfortunately invariably devolve into areas that may be defamatory, libelous, spread unsubstantiated rumours & can effect the mental health of those involved. Even discussion & debate of known facts or media reports can lead to finger pointing, blame & personal attacks.

    The repercussion is that these discussions can open this website, it’s owners & it’s users to legal action & may result in this website being forced to shutdown.

    Our moderating team are all volunteers & cannot moderate the forum 24/7 & as a consequence problematic content that contravenes our rules & standards may go unnoticed for some time before it can be removed.

    We reserve the right to delete posts that offend against our above policy & indeed, to ban posters who are repeat offenders or who breach our code of conduct.

    WE HAVE BUILT A FANTASTIC ONLINE COMMUNITY AT DEMONLAND OVER THE PAST 23 YEARS & WE WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE TO BE ABLE TO DISCUSS THE CLUB WE LOVE & ARE SO PASSIONATE ABOUT.

    Thank you for your continued support & understanding. Go Dees.

I can't wait for full training to start and see which groups specific players are training with.  It gives a good indication although I recognise that things can change quickly in season e,g, Salem mid to back; and Fritsch fwd to mid to back last year and Melksham back to fwd in 2017.

Anyway hers's a stab at it starting with whom I consider to be the locks (you're free to disagree):

Backs: May, Lever, Jetta, Hibberd, Salem, OMac, Lewis, Frost, Petty, Wagner

Mids: Gawn, Preuss, Viney, Oliver, Brayshaw, Harmes, Jones, Stretch, JKH, Maynard, Baker

Forwards: TMac, Weed, Melksham, Petracca, ANB, Spargo, Hannan, T.Smith, Garlett

Of particular interest:

  • KK: back or mid - I'm tipping wing role as a mid.
  • VDB: probably mid?
  • Hunt: has been a back but I think there could be a role change - possibly forward
  • Fritsch: the most versatile - forward, mid or back?  He played back at the end of this year for coverage and I have FD intel that this is the preferred role for him
  • J.Smith: was a back but I've posted elsewhere that I like the idea of him forward, has the height to spoil intercept markers and the pace and tackling to lock the ball in.  The FD tried him there at the end of this year twice.
  • Keilty: plays back at Casey but they use him as a swingman and goes fwd to create an effective target,  With our plethora of tall backs and shortage of tall fwd depth I'd like to see Dec training with the forwards.

Agree with everything here, though I do like the idea of Fritsch playing forward considering our backline depth.

If we can get Hunt to increase his work rate then I think a forward/winger role is something I’d love to see him in. He had X-factor in 2017 and kicked some great goals, I think he even had one game (from memory against Adelaide) where he played the second half as a forward and really showed something. 

I just can’t see a role for him down back now, unless Lewis goes down but even then I wouldn’t think he’d be the best choice to replace him. 

Mahoney stated early in the trade period the Hunt was not someone they were looking to move on so clearly the club still sees a future for him.

Tall backs  May  Frost  Omcd  Petty  Keilty (R)

Mid/tall.  Lever. Jsmith. Wagner. 

mid backs  Hibberd  Salem  Lewis

small backs.  Jetta

12

mid inside  Oliver  Viney Brayshaw  Harmes  Jones  Maynard (R)

mid outside.  Kolodjashnij  Hunt. Stretch. Baker. 

10

Tall fwd. Tmcd. Weideman TSmith (R)

mid fwd. Melksham  Petracca. Fritsch. ANB. VDHberg.  Hannan  

sml fwds. Spargo. Garlett jkh.

12

ruck. Gawn. Preuss 

2  

there are many other variations with Petracca ANB able to go into midfield or Brayshaw to go outside mid as required. 

Salem can go into the midfield. 

Kolo Baker Hunt can go back as running half backs. 

We have 8 spots to fill. The key areas for me are

1- more midfield class. You can never have enough (see Pies and Eagles)

draft options - Xavier O’Halloran or Tom Mckenzie or Xavier Duursma (at 23 or 28 or both) 

2- crumbing forward. (Garlett can step up but we need more goal kickers)

draft options - Toby Bedford (pick 54 or 62 likely) Zac Foot or Nick Hind (pick 91, rookie option)

3- tall forwards. Yes we need to build up in case tmcd/Weid have injury or form issues. 

draft options - Hudson Garoni, Haydn McLean (either at pick 91 or rookie) 

4- young ruck. I see a spot for a youngster here to develop at Casey. (Bradtke is on list as Cat B)

draft options - Bailey Williams (at #28 if available) , Stephen Cumming (rookie option)

5- small back. Cover for Jetta. 

draft options - Jay Lockhart or Marty Hore (either at pick 62,91,rookie)

It’s raining in the rainforest but my Lebanese Weed is dry and smoking and hanging on the drops as it climbs through the giant red cedar limbs... but round one of the tilt at the flag needs to show some  class and a new plan...

Rear six... Jetta May Hibbo.... Salem Frost Hunt

Starting six.... Gawn Oliver Harmes.... KK Brayshaw Draft 28 (Xavier!)

Front six... TMac Melksham Weed... ANB Preuss Draft 23 (SS!)

Bench four... Harmes VAnders Fritsch Jones

The lack of realisation that Oscar McDonald is one of the first picked every week (yes, even with May and Lever) I find continually bemusing.

Makes me doubtful about your extensive draft prognostications ...

  • Frost ahead of OMac?
  • Hannan ahead of Vanders and Spargo?
  • Garlett in at all?

In: OMac, Vanders, Spargo
Out: Frost, Hannan, Garlett

I think that we may start with the Preuss experiment but it won't last long.  Probably in time for Lever to return.

To be fair, Hannan and Garlett might have been identified for their goal output, where Spargo and Vanders would be chosen as they have a higher defensive aspect to their game and locking the ball in the forward line. That said, I agree that I find it hard to picture Garlett being in the best 22, and I agree that OMac is ahead of Frost at this stage as well.

Strange isn't it.  When we  secured lever some on here said that would mean omac going to Casey for his "development' having been 'gifted' games in 2017. What happens? Plays almost every minute of every game in 2018. Including the 8 -9 lever played in. Having played all b as r one the previous season. 

And frost. Only got a run at it once lever went down and only after he had worked on his weaknesses.

Omac is well ahead of frost.

Round 1, injuries considered; 


FB - Jetta May Hibbo

HB - Salem Omac Lewis

C - Kolo Viney Brayshaw 

HF - Melksham Tmac Petracca 

FF - Fritsch Weid Hannan

 Fol - Gawn Oliver Harmes 

Int - ANB Vanders Jones Spargo 

Lewis to be phased out once Lever is fit, straight swap and that's our full strength back 6. Looks delicious on paper. 

No idea where Pruess fits in all this yet, don't think we'll see him in Round 1. 

Hopefully Jones to be used up forward and not in the middle, the guts ain't for him anymore but he's obviously still best 22 (can kick a decent goal after all).

Kolo coming out firing is probably the thing I hope for the most. He will be a very important key if we are to go deep. 

Give us a Richmond 2017-style lack of injuries and I'd rate us as short priced favs in 2019. Here's hoping, on paper we look deadly across the board.

Love the positivity @Smokey !- personally I am not sure where Jones fits anymore... he has his moments that are great, and he can butcher it too... irrespective of the his history of carrying the side, I think he should (in one man's opinion) be phased out... and it would be the same if he was 23... 

Kolo intriques me...kudos to the gold coast medical team for working through this time with him/it's not a question of whether our's is better per se, I think our development personnel will help him no end... 

Deadly indeed...

List looks really in good shape. 

Perhaps only need is for young key forward to also develop over next 2-3 years like we did with  the Weid. 

Haydn McLean was probably the one I would have grabbed at the rookie pick.

Don't think many of the draft picks are gonna feature early but knowing Goodwin anyone with a good attitude will be fast tracked aka Maynard, Smith and Fritsch. So we could see Sparrow featuring early on and maybe playing a half forward role.

 

If i take a guess at rd 1 team i'd say

Jetta - Oscar - May

Hibberd - Salem - Lewis

Brayshaw - Viney - Jones

Petracca - Weideman - Neal-Bullen

Melksham - T. McDonald - Sparrow

Gawn - Oliver - Harmes

Fritsch - Pruess - Vanders - Hannan

Y not try Oscar as a forward &  bring in Frost as a wing Lever 2 play Oscar's role till Petty comes good.

Salam   viney   kk

Anb      weideman  vanders

Spargo    tmac       melksham 

Foll  gawn   Oliver   brayshaw

Int   harmes   jones  petracca 

Final int spot depends on need re who we play between preuss,lewis,maynard,

I cant see jones and lewis in same side if we have a fit side later in the season.

Those depth realistically who could push best 22 if they get to their best not inc draftees as they are unknown

Stretch, hunt, hannan, frost

Excited to see improvement from

Petty, baker, j smith, c wagner

Needs massive turnaround to be on list 2020

Garlett, t smith, keilty, jkh, j wagner

    DEPTH CHARGE by Whispering Jack

    The jubilation on the coach’s face as he danced a celebratory jig by the playing bench after the final siren sounded to record his team’s four-point victory over the Demons when the teams last met, said it all.    On that rainy Friday night at the Adelaide Oval, Ken Hinkley’s young midfield secured much more than four points on offer. The victory over one of the big dogs of the competition after a succession of wins over some of its lesser lights gave his team respect and validation fo

    HIBERNATING by KC from Casey

    When they locked up the rooms for summer at the end of last year’s football season, the rooms gathered cobwebs, the atmosphere became dense and the place developed a sleepy feel. They opened up the rooms to let Casey out to play on Sunday but the team was still hibernating and they missed the bulk of the opening quarter. By the time they worked out it was game on, their opponents from Box Hill had accumulated five goals and, if the game wasn’t over, it might as well have been. For a se

    A FORK IN THE HAWK by George on the Outer

    For too long in the past, Demon fans became habitually sick and tired of watching the Hawks hand out thrashings to their side. But Melbourne’s empahtic 55-point win at the MCG on Saturday has truly put a fork in the Hawk and turned that history well and truly on its head. The Demons have now won nine of their last ten encounters with the other result, a draw.     And like a fork, it was the multi-pronged options that Melbourne had all across the ground.  It certainly helped that Hawthorn
