Trades may alter this, or Valenti or Wonnas may agree to be on the Rookie list for another season to keep pick 35 open.

That would be mightily courteous of them.

    Deletions at the moment look like Neitz, Holland, Yze, White, Weetra, and Bode. That is 6, therefore leaving only 3 picks in the national draft.

    You could add Carroll to that list. Presuming Woneamirri holds onto Neita's spot, those delistings would leave us with 6 vacant spots. If we elevate Valenti, we can pick 4 in the National Draft + 1 in the PSD. At least that's how I see it.

    as it stands right now how many picks do we have in the national draft??

    if it is only three, then i hope they are low ones?

    A Matthew Scarlett type full back, strong CHB for when Rivers is out injured, top ruckman, Judd-type gifted gutsy centreman, strong CHF, leading FF... how many have I got left?? :rolleyes:

    (no actually I do them a disfavour, we've got some great potential, just need seasons and experience and some stronger bodies and the future's looking OK, imo)

    :lol: , if Rivers plays 16 out of 22 games next year I'll be happy with that.

    Two classy midfielders - goalkickers.

    Two tall forwards - strong marks & goalkickers.

    A tall (186+ - 190cm) nimblefooted aboriginal defender. Someone who has poise on his feet in the wet & can kick. B/P , HBF, Winger.

    Should Valenti be given a senior spot?

    Given McDonald's going around again, perhaps not.

    Robertson will be out for a while, won't he?

    You could add Carroll to that list.

    He's contracted, so it seems unlikely.

    Would he?

    Watts has already stated publicly that he doesnt want to leave victoria. Consequently, he will nominate..unless of course melbourne tell him that we don't want him.

    When completing your written list of what you wanted to get from Santa as a child......did you get all of it?

    :lol: Because I hope you do in this case

    • 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.
