2008 Draft Day

Featured Replies

Pick 35 next, who's it going to be?

 

Correct :lol:

 

Does this mean that we rate Jamar, PJ and Spencer higher than any prospects in this draft, or are we just filling what we need more?

You can have the best ruckman in the league, but if your midfield can't get the ball or kick, then what's the point?

How many premierships did Jeff White bring us?

You can have great success with ruckman you pick late in the draft or as a rookie. Wasting an early pick on a beanpole who might take 5 years to develop, if at all, seems silly.

nice nice!! taking the indegenous player in Jetta definately worth a punt given the success of Davey and Cyril Rioli in recent years!! we definately need a quick crumber to put pressure on down there...

 

I agree, I asked knowing what I already thought.

Good to see we have a plan

I'm more excited about our pick 51 than 17 and 19...

This draft was touted as the big KP draft, and we picked up one spine player, plus one standard sized mid and a couple of tiiiiny little blokes. I have an awful feeling we drafted Blease and Strauss because we need pace and kicking skill.

I think the Swift thing will hurt us too.

Don't agree at all, but you have to love the aboriginal kids. We're forming a small army of them!

I'm stoked with Blease, but I was also hoping that Johnston or Shoenmakers might slide into contention.

Not sure what to make of Strauss or Bennell.

I thought Jetta might go a bit earlier than 51.

No idea who Rohan Bail is.

Bailey would know him from Mt. Gravatt?


Pick One in the PSD here we come

I like that they'll have competition for the role as speedy crumber in the forward line, hopefully get them all the lift their game (especially Flash who was dropped off)

pick 76 is pass! he is a gun player!

the next buddy franklin mark my words!

Rapt with the Demons selections! Alot of excitement there. I thought we drafted really well even though havnt heard of the players drafted with later picks.

Spewn we didnt get Rory Sloane. Great one on one player and competitor.

PSD Pick hopefully gets us that one youngster who slipped through. I think there could be quite a few. Rockcliff just too mention one. Could be a great pick up for our forward line. De Boer still there aswell. And Clancee Pearce who I thought played great for WA 18's as a key backmen. Very surprised he was'nt picked up.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

    Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
