I know we are debating who we would take as the no.1 pick in the draft and although this is pure hypothetical if we didn't win against the dogs we would of had the first two picks which way would we have gone?

Natanui and Watt

Natanui and Rich

Rich and Watt

Hurley and Watt

You can tell I'm bored but I would have gone with the first Natanui and Watt

    Much different scenario to being able to pick just one...if we could go back in time I'd suggest one KPF and one midfielder, so Watt & Rich, looking to pick up Warnock in the PSD.

    ...and if we hadn't sacked Norm Smith....

    B)

    I am reading his biography at the moment. His son in the books foreward said that Norm was more upset about having been voted down by members when he wanted to join the MFC Committee in 1967 than having been sacked as Coach in 1965. Interesting.

    Don't be a party pooper guys... everyone states we need a KPP, a mid and a ruck...

    with this little scenario we have an option of two out of three just wondering what people would choose....

    remember it's only a bit of fun

    considering your last question i would take the kpp forward, then the mid then the ruck in that order.

    however, having watched the vids of NN i could be very easily swayed.

    out of interest, this year we have the lowest number of insider 50's of any team but one of the best conversion rates (ie goals per inside 50 is high) (please someone correct me if im wrong on this, i just remember reading it somewhere).

    this suggests to me that we need most, is more inside 50s, which means an elite midfielder could be the better option.

    one of the keys here is making sure that the pass inside 50 goes into space to the advantage of the forward, whether small or tall. if the delivery is good, you only need one inside 50 per goal :D

    if we hadn't lost about 4 games when we were leading with 5 minutes to go in the last qtr we wouldv had 8 wins.

    time to get over it.

    btw we beat the bulldogs by 10 goals. its not like it was a 1 pt vicotry which we couldv purposely tanked in the last qtr

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
