Jones Mclean Rivers Watts Morton Bruce Green. Who won't be future captain?

Add to that Grimes and Miller, and our leadership stocks suddenly don't to bad.

    Cale really ought to get nominated this week; if he doesn't there's something wrong with the process. He's clearly had a better year than half the other nominees so far in 2008.

    And next week I would nominate Addam Maric. The speed with which he moves onto the footy, the precision with which he hits teammates, the way he finds space, the cleanness of his hands - they are all similar to Cotchin.

    Craig Cameron must be spitting chips he didn't hide Maric from the Demons last November.

    Godemons, better to save him until next year's nominations. He might be a chance to win it. We could have quite a few up for nomination next year.

    I hope so!

    You can get nominated in two seasons, so he could still be eligible next season, despite being nominated this year.

    Yes. What is it again? Is it you have to be younger than 21 years of age and played fewer than 10 games before the commencement of the season to be eligible?

    If that is the case next year we will have: -

    Addam Maric

    Jack Grimes

    Tom MacNamara

    Kyle Cheney

    Maybe Jake Spencer

    and this years draft pick selections all eligible (4-5)

    Petterd will still be eligible under those parameters then won't he?

    Cale Morton has been nominated for Round 20. Footy Classified (Hutchy) :lol:

    You can be nominated twice as long as you have played under 10 games heading into the 2nd year. Jones got nominated in 2006 and 2007.

    If Maric plays a couple of blinders next 2 weeks and somehow gets nominated, then he will also be eligible next year.

    Would you prefer I didn't take time out of my busy day to compile this list for the benefit of demonlanders. Would you prefer I deal in rumours and opinions exclusively, instead of indisputable facts? I say more of this kind of well researched analysis and less biased opinion. Don’t bring down the list Dappa.

    Great stats b42L. So you're counting Brent Moloney for us. Not doubling up in Geelongs quota I hope? Is Steven Armstrong on West Coasts list?

  • Quote

    Well done Cale, you should have been nominated for this months ago!

    Moloney is the only player i know of that won a rising star and was traded. I didn't count him on Geelong's list, and I put him on our list.

    Armstrong isn't on either list, From memory he won it in 2002. I have only counted since 2004.

    I just had a look at the 2002 and 2003 rising stars. Hawks and Geelong feature heavily... you could argue that their current form is due largely to these nominated players hitting an optimum age. Project our nominated players forward a few years.... :P . you get the idea.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
