Hamish Hartlett looks like a genuine Top 5 pick on his first half performance performance. Admittedly SA are annihilating NSW/ACT but boy does he look the goods so far. Moves well in traffic, works well around the packs and gets clearances, but he also uses the ball beautifully. Few players in the AFL would be able to kick a drop-punt as technically sound as that one (you just watch it spin).

Also impressed with Schoenmakers for SA (though he is yet another mid-sized player, at 189cm, that you wonder where he will end up long-term). Lewis Johnston has size and ability. He's missed a couple of sitters but generally been very impressive with some strong grabs and intelligent leading.

Also been impressed with the NSW/ACT captain, Mitch Clisby, and Josh Bryce, who is doing his best to hold back the red tide with some strong marking and good distribution.

Agree with you there Diablo.

He's also very apt at kicking it between the big sticks.

Does anyone know when the replays of the games are being televised on FoxSports?

Sometime next week I believe mate. Might be Thursday. You'll probably be able to get highlights at least on bigpond though.

I've decided Hamish Hartlett reminds me of a right-footed Simon Black. Has a happy knack of getting his arms free in the tackle and then dishing the ball off to a team mate in space, and attempts (with degrees of success) alot of the deft kicks that Black manages to pull off. Seems to have tremendous vision, with just a little bit of polish required on some of the more fancy things he tries. Had 24 possessions and kicked a long running goal from 50. Best on Ground.

Josh Bryce continued to impress for the Rams in the 2nd half. He went forward and kicked a couple of goals, showing he can play pretty well at both ends.

If you were competing, you'd love to have a good game on this big stage.

In terms of draft hype, so many fans are going to judge players purely on their performances today.

Watch the boards go into meltdown if a guy who has a quiet day today is picked up early in the draft :P

Watching the 1st Qtr of VIc Metro - WA has made it painful....

Who do we take with our pick assuming its #1

Natanui - Looks a giant and has so much scop

Rich - Looks classey and has pace, gemuine ball magnet

Watts - Looks damaging up forward with a beautiful kick, a genuine KPP

We will get a gun player regardless but it so hard to decide......

So much will depend on Robbie Warnock....

Other gun players i noticed form the earlier games were Hamish Hartlett from SA (Resembled Simon Black with his disposal)

and #11 from Tassie look classy. a 6 foot genuine midfeilder with great disposal and ball winning ability.......

It's a painful conundrum but a welcome one none the less.

At the moment Vic Metro 65 WA 28 mid third term

For me, Rich clearly looks the best player of the potential No.1's at the moment. Has fantastic skills, ball-winning ability and work ethic. The only question I would have about him is speed, but I don't place huge importance on raw speed for inside midfielders like him. But I wouldnt be at all disappointed if we picked him No.1

Naitanui is playing quite well. He has unelievable potential as everyone says. His first two tap-outs straight were breath-taking. He has an amazing leap, speed and agility. As good as he is in the ruck, I'd love to see him play up forward. Obviously still has a bit to learn, but I can't see how we will overlook this guy. He could be anything, even if he has a few chinks right now. Also, we are screaming out for exactly what he offers; a ruckman, a marketers dream and a player with unlimited versatlity.

Liam Pickering commented before the game that he would take Watts with the Number 1 pick. I can't see that happening. He's a full forward, Looks a good prospect and has a great set shot, but there's no way we'd pick him over Natanui. Also, a player called Vickery? has kicked 3 goals for VM today and looked just as good a target.

    DERAILMENT by KC from Casey

    It wasn’t quite a trainwreck although at times, it sure looked like one, so I’ll settle for “derailment”.  The trip to Brighton Homes Arena in Springfield outside the back of Brisbane might not exactly be the same place where Homer Simpson’s family resides but, if you listened closely to the utterances of the Casey Demons fans both at the ground or watching via livestream, you could hear lots of groaning and plenty of expressions of “D'oh!” reverberating in the background, particular

    TEN YEARS AFTER by Whispering Jack

    Things have changed in the more than ten years since the West Coast Eagles decimated Melbourne by 93 points on the MCG early in the 2014 season. The two sides had not met at the home of football in the interim until yesterday when Melbourne won by a comfortable 54 points to remain in contention for this year’s finals series. Back in those days, the Demons were in the midst of their Great Depression but they have since tasted premiership glory and experienced a long enough period among

    PREGAME: Rd 18 vs Essendon

    The Demons are back at the MCG once again and will once again be fighting for a spot in the Top 8 as they come face to face with Bombers on Saturday night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
