Watch out for Whispering's take on the top draft hopefuls after the national carnival - coming soon.

A few names I noticed from the under 18 carnival.

Ranga Edwickrama - excellent pace

Tom Lynch - Strong marking forward, presents well and would be the perfect foil for Bate (dead set ringa)

Tom Scully - Small forward with reasonable pace, silky skills and plenty of nous.

Clinton Garlett - Pacy and versatile, can win his own ball.

Ryan Harwood - Again excellent at winning his own ball, found space and delivered the ball well.

Aaron Cornelius - Exellent overhead mark and great pace on the lead, reminded me of a junior Robbo.

The best for mine was Michael Hurley. It's not very often you see a dominant BOG display from a full back, but he owned the game he played at Casey Fields. Keep your eyes out for him.

its a top 10 FOR THE CARNIVAL, not his top 10 overall.

Thanks for the caps, we may have missed your point otherwise.

Stephen Hill (WA) and Mitch Banner (VIC M) were two that caught my eye outside of the popular trio in Natanui, Watts and Rich.

Will do....

certainly will

given we will in all likely hood finish 15th then our first pick isnt too far out of the known.

That we will also likley have picks 18 and/or 21 then this part of the bunch becomes very interesting..VERY !!

I watched alot of Lewis Johnston, saw him in person on the Wednesday, I think he'll be one to struggle to transition; people are rating him far too highly.

Strange NikNat thought S Hill was best player of the carnival or WA or whatever it was.

Let’s get Lewis Johnston. Instead of Watts

This way we get a key forward then with picks 1-3(what ever we get) we take NAt or rich

Johnston is under age so he will still develop.

If he’s in the top 10 this year imagine what he'll be if he wasn’t picked this year and went through to next year

He won't make top 20. Also, he's not in the same class as watts. Nowhere near it.

I'd be surprised if he didnt make the top 20, but prob have to see his testing to know, cause I thought he looked a pretty good, well-rounded forward with a bit of x-factor

Maybe 15-20, but I think more 20-25. Moves nicely, but there's a fair bit of 'if and maybes' about him. I don't see a dominant key forward, more a lively roaming tall. He does have some x factor, but he's definitely not top 10.

Maybe it's the hair.

I liked the look of Zaharakis. Not sure why, but just stood out to me for some reason.

Will do. Will be interesting what WJ has to say

Tend to agree.

Has all the necessary ability to make it but his demeanor doesn't strike me as one that will cope with the pressures of AFL

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
