So fuschia, I like you right, but I wish you'd just bloody well say what you actually think!

Watched the footage, he is good, i think the problem is he is aware of this. Playing against men in the afl requires a little more than natural talent. That aside, I think he could be useful at an AFL level with the right mentoring (wheels/flash) and coaching (bails).

PSD is usually a waste of time unless you get lucky, may as well roll the dice again and see if we can get another Davey like gem. I dont see too many other standout options on the table, so i am behind rolling the dice on this one and seeing where it takes us.

I know this is drawing a ridiculously long bow, but the way he moves the ball around in his hands, he reminds me a lot of Daniel Motlop.

I know they are nothing alike really, but he just has an x factor that excites me... and Emma Quayle by the sounds of things.

Probably right about him knowing it though Wrathchild.

Worth a punt anyway, I say.

he looks very slow

doesnt anyone else think that?

Yeah, i got that.. he has a bit of Brent Grgic about him... laconic

scares me a bit

Yeah, but its affectively Pick #80+ in the draft... who cares if he 'looks' lazy or whatever???

Maybe he is, and he will get found out in the big league... OR maybe he will work hard once he gets his shot. The thing is, it is a boom or bust pick... what does it cost us???

He seems to have a bit of X-factor about him, and seems to be a pretty good kid from what I've heard. I would love to pick him up.

Ye agree mate.

He seem to have high potential if fitness isthe problem then its easly fixed , personaly rather take him who has good potential in wat ive sen then taking an average player who at best turns out to be an ok player.

But in PSD i guess you never know who has the ability to turn out a realy good player.

Seeing that theyve been over looked about 70 odd times.

In fact almost every single player left and available to be drafted has been overlooked exactly 79 times (unless they are previously contracted players registering next week in which case they weren't overlooked or they were available last year and in that case the figure is considerably greater)

yeh, ive gone off him and would be not be that all happy if we picked him up

laziness has put me off him

i dont think he'll make it

I hope they look at Matthew DeBoer, an extractor & good runner with quality.

Sibasado looks poss' lazy, so to me, so he would be a rookie proposition if still there.

Alot of people beat around the bush when describing players, or try to be needlessly verbose . . .

De Boer was not drafted because his disposal is crap.

Hi geddy, Matt DeBoer goes alright, hey.

What ever happened to Dappa Dan? His last login was a couple of days after his last post, in October 2012. Always seems alarming to me when regular posters go idle like that very suddenly. He used to post a lot (in both post count and word count) - but was always a good read.

Maybe he decided to take the law into his own hands and murder Yze Magic, then got caught and locked up.

What jury would convict?

Geez, Yze Magic was a different kind of troll to what we have on here these days. Not so many snide sideways remarks, just straight up "you are full of ... and here's why" followed by incredible, sometimes outlandish theories.

Someone should go back and check just in case it turned out he was right about everything.

Well he misfired on Sylvia turning into the messiah...

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
