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?

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?

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.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
