Just noticed Luke Jericho's been delisted by Adelaide - he's still 23 - might be worth a late round pick? Young enough?

Haven't seen a whole lotta him but he did kick that bag against the tiges this year.

What do you guys reckon?

    Yeah i reckon he could be a good pick up, although i haven't seen much of him

    No thanks. Could hardly get a game in a team with no forward line. He's been a fringe player for years, just the kind of player we don't need.

    If he nominated for the psd, he might be a chance depending on the field.

    Doubt Gill would.

    Jericho is a bit of an enigma. Looks a million bucks some days then looks as though he'd struggle to get a game at Powelltown other weeks.

    Had his share of injuries over the journey and never got settled but is a decent size (190cm) and moves well so will be looked at

    Who else is really available in the PSD?

    Right now he'd be our best bet.

    In a team which is crying out for forwards, he got delisted and was in and out of the team...

    NO THANKS.

    I would focus all my attention on Lonergan. At least he was a regular in Geelong, kicked 36 goals in 16 games. Not a superstar, but a good fill while we wait for Watts to fire

    We need to get serious if we are to rebuild. We are better off taking a punt on a kid who has not had a chance at the top level out of this upcoming draft, than to recycle guys we know cannot ever be anything special at the top level.

    Jericho has his chance, and he was not up to it. He is not better than some of the fringe players we have, so why bother when we have our own fringe players to manage.

    Jericho Vs Random Late Round Smokey Kid. Winner, the Smokey draftee!

    That's about the size of it. We would be picking a kid, basically the selection after the normal draft...

    But other than that, I can't think of too many players that excite me less...

    Yes if it was Jericho vs Stefan Martin type player then its the Stefan Martin type player.

    Otherwise it would be a pass.

    No need to fill the list stocking with more of what we dont need.

    Just a question for anyone in the know, are you able to put a player picked up in the National Draft onto the Rookie List?

    I don't think you can, but just wanted to make sure

  • Quote

    No. they would have to be delisted and redrafted in the rookie draft that takes place right after the PSD.

  • Quote

    Either a 23-yr-old known entity (that just got boned), for a kid that could get better and better.

    We keep down this path we'll have 44 players on our list that are ALL NQRs...

  • Quote

    Being a bit harsh on Jericho. He is only 23 is in our youth policy and can kick goals. We NEED someone up forward who can kick more than 2 a game.

  • Quote

    While there have been a few instances of players of his age rejuvinating their careers at another club the chances of it happening especially at a club with poor form is basically nil

    Adelaide are not fools when delisting players

  • Quote

    Well a clun where he is given responsibility might be good for him players might actually kick to him as he will be a target

  • Quote
    •  

    So the consensus is he'll either be an even WORSE player at MFC than he was at the Crows... OR he'll kick 50 for us... Even if it's the latter he'll probably only be list clogger when the business years roll around.

  • Quote

    He is a good player and we need to start winning some games. Even if it is 5 so we can get some sponsors on board and some money to this club. To do that however we need players who can kick goals. Let's be honest here guys he will kick more than Miller who was our leading goalkicker last year with 26.

    That is pathetic and considering Watts is unlikely to play much next year, we need someone who can kick goals for us and be a threat.

      It's Game Day and the Demons have another opportunity to spoil another team's finals aspirations as they take on the Hawks at the MCG. What do you want to see from the boys today?

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.
