DRAFT 2008

Bails
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

i don't want cornelius..he is not tall enough to play key position at only 192cm. He is a clone of brad fisher, and while he aint bad I would rather take a stab on someone that could be better. Cornelius has also pubilcly stated that he isnt tall enough for a key position and consequently has worked on being more of an opportunistic goal scorer.

As for suban, i like your thinking sylvinator.

And i dont think melbourne are in a position to take a risk on injured players(i.e Swift). We need as much help we can get from this draft..not the time to be making any risks. just my opinion.

In my humble opinion, I think we should consider these players for our first 3 picks, & also we should trade for another pick around 20 - 28 for another midfielder.

1. Watts

17. Blease

19. Shoenmaker - http://au.youtube.com/results?search_query..._type=&aq=f

20. - 28. Rhyce O'keefe, / Zaharakis, / T Lynch, / Broadbent

35. (ruckman)

    Considering our picks positioning i have selected who i think we should and will take in the draft .

    1. Watts

    17. Mitch Brown

    19. Ash Smith

    Watts - We all know him

    Mitch Brown - Mitch Brown is a different one from the Eagle…he is a Mentone Grammar boy who has grown from 174 to 193+ is 12 months. Kicked 7,7,6,8,7 in 5 games for mentone before 8 in the APS/AGS game. Dragons recruited him mid-season and he played the last 5 games. Diamond in the rough…I want him.

    Ash smith - Ash Smith is a Haileybury boy who has had a bit of OP but seems to be alright now. At his peak he would be one of the quickest in the comp with an amazing penetrating kick.

    Hasn’t played a heap this year, but will be a jet.

    Thats my view and thats what i want.....Brett O'farrel is a bad example he was always pooz

    Mitch Brown for mine. He went to my old school so he MUST be GOOD!

    I'm of the same opinion, dee-luded. Would be happy with Tom Lynch.

    edit: like the look of Shoenmaker too as a KPP option. I like these selections!!

    I won't even go into the suggestion of Hawthorn taking Carroll.

    You value Wona as lowly as a 10 pick upgrade? I know he's from the rookie draft, but i think that's selling his value a little short

    And i assume you mean Jordan Lisle at pick 25?

    Thanks for picking me up on that, yeah I meant Jordan Lisle. Also although my mock trade of Wonna and pick 35 to pick 25 is only a ten pick upgrade I think it'd be worth it. I do like Wonna but just think he's limited in his ability just as a small forward. Also we still have Davey and Maric around so I think trading him for an upgrade of ten now could be worth it, otherwise in a couple of years time he may be playing with Casey with no trade value.

    • 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.
