SEN are currently broadcasting the Grannie. It's worth a listen.

Steele has already kicked 6 or 7 for the Bushies and is playing an "outstanding game." He kicked one on his wrong side from around 50 apparently.

The special comments bloke who's name I haven't heard yet is talking of him rocketing up the list into serious contention for a top 3 pick.

This draft is getting more muddied with such a good group of first rounders.

10 goals now.

30 something touches (lost count), 10 goals, bunch of marks, some contested. Has Bartel like marking overhead for his size.

Amazing performance. You'd think he is top 5 material now possibly?

He's been my man from the start. Just ask Hards. I was on him 6 months ago (mainly for his name :P) lol

Going to be a very good AFL player. Just got that build and hunger about him.

Not one performance by any stretch.

Steele's had a standout season for the Bushrangers, one in which he's improved in leaps and bounds.

BOG in the TAC Grannie (by a fair margin) can't be dismissed so easily.

The set-in-stone trinity of Watts, NickNats and Rich is looking a bit shaky.

The only one of those who has displayed the passion and attitude for the game like Steele is Rich.

we can still pick him up, at pick 1..he has shown more than watts

Agreed 100%.

I wish everyone would shut up about Watts, he is seriously overrated.

I am starting to warm to Sidebottom as our number 1 pick.

:blink:

TAC cup grand final is bad quality.... 3/4 of the guys playing out there today won't even be drafted.

Compare that to the U18 carnival where Watts got best player in comp out of the best young talent in the country.

Also, look who was BOG on the TAC cup grand final last year: Ashley Arrowsmith.

Thats right, who?

It definitely wasn't a one one performance in the grand final because Siddebottom has had a stand out finals series. Even last week I was looking at the usual places (ok, I confess mainly big footy) to see where he was being rated and it was already in the top dozen and I think he was always going to go before our second pick at # 17. He hasn't done any harm to his stocks but probably won't break into the top three.

Anyone have any idea where he was roughly projected to go, prior to tonight? Just wondering- if he was expected to go later than pick 17 then that obviously leaves us with more options than we thought. Does this effect us, or not really?

On my list i had him inside my top 10 already, with a group of about 5 after the top 3 (in order of talent i'd put him 6). There are a few BF poster (only a few) who actually know what they're talking about regarding draftees and pretty much all of them already had Sidebottom as a first round pick at the latest, most had him top 10. There's a Phantom draft organised by one of the more respected blokes, you can only get in it by invite, and their trial had sidebottom go at pick 8.

No one who knows what they're on about are going to cream their pants over one game and put him at pick 1, but he might go up 2 or 3 spots in the first round. So he's not come out of no where, but his whole TAC finals series, especially that last game, may have him top 5.

Played a great game Sidebottom did, have a bad feeling he might end up going to Collingwood around pick 11 however. Would be great if he slid through to 17 but doubt it. Hopefully if not him Blease might possibly?

    DERAILMENT by KC from Casey

    It wasn’t quite a trainwreck although at times, it sure looked like one, so I’ll settle for “derailment”.  The trip to Brighton Homes Arena in Springfield outside the back of Brisbane might not exactly be the same place where Homer Simpson’s family resides but, if you listened closely to the utterances of the Casey Demons fans both at the ground or watching via livestream, you could hear lots of groaning and plenty of expressions of “D'oh!” reverberating in the background, particular

    TEN YEARS AFTER by Whispering Jack

    Things have changed in the more than ten years since the West Coast Eagles decimated Melbourne by 93 points on the MCG early in the 2014 season. The two sides had not met at the home of football in the interim until yesterday when Melbourne won by a comfortable 54 points to remain in contention for this year’s finals series. Back in those days, the Demons were in the midst of their Great Depression but they have since tasted premiership glory and experienced a long enough period among

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
