Anyone putting money on watts is mad. I have a feeling he may be in contention for the 2010 rising star as we may not see all that much of him this year.

Grimes for me is the one to watch at MFC in 09 for the rising star.

Good call. I think Rich will put in a good showing, 2nd or 3rd in the rising star, bet few are better placed than Grimes.

Highly rated, skillful, hard worker, already spent a year observing & learning the system & will have put in a full AFL preseason, will be largely unknown & off other team's radars due to being out most of last year, a midfielder/HBF so has is in the right spot to earn lots of possessions (as stats do make a difference)...

he would be damn good odds too ... see ya later, i'm off to the TAB!

You said it, don't put too much on him, it might drop the odds and I haven't had a chance yet!

I am amazed Hartlett, Dangerfield, Myers and Vespremi do not figure higher in the odds. Dangerfield and Myers would be my early favourites with Hartlett heading the first year players. I would expect Grimes and Watts the most likely Demons to gain nominations this year. I think Watts will play early on this year off a flank/pocket if he performs well enough in the NAB cup/challenge games. I have copied below the odds for all players under 51.00

WATTS, Jack (MELB) 7.50

SIDEBOTTOM, Steele (COLL) 10.00

ZIEBELL, Jack (KANG) 10.00

BALLANTYNE, Hayden (FREO) 13.00

HURLEY, Michael (ESS) 13.00

SELWOOD, Scott (WCE) 13.00

RICH, Daniel (BRIS) 14.00

DAVIS, Phil (ADEL) 15.00

NAITANUI, Nicholas (WCE) 15.00

SUBAN, Nicholas (FREO) 15.00

HARTLETT, Hamish (PORT) 17.00

JOHNSTON, Lewis (SYD) 17.00

CONNORS, Daniel (RICH) 21.00

DANGERFIELD, Patrick (ADEL) 21.00

MASTEN, Chris (WCE) 21.00

VICKERY, Tyrone (RICH) 21.00

LYNCH, Tom (STK) 26.00

TRENGROVE, Jackson (PORT) 29.00

HILL, Stephen (FREO) 31.00

WARD, Callan (WBD) 31.00

YARRAN, Chris (CARL) 31.00

ZAHARAKIS, David (ESS) 31.00

GRIMES, Jack (MELB) 34.00

CORDY, Ayce (WBD) 41.00

MC KERNAN, Shaun, (ADEL) 41.00

STRAUSS, James (MELB) 41.00

SWIFT, Tom (WCE) 41.00

BEAMS, Dayne (COLL) 51.00

BLEASE, Sam (MELB) 51.00

BROADBENT, Matthew (PORT) 51.00

BROWN, Mitchell (WCE) 51.00

HENDERSON, Lachlan (BRIS) 51.00

HEYNE, Nicholas (STK) 51.00

MAGIN, Rhys (ESS) 51.00

MYERS, David (ESS) 51.00

SHUEY, Luke (WCE) 51.00

THORP, Mitchell (HAW) 51.00

VESZPREMI, Patrick (SYD) 51.00

Petterd is ineligable. I think Melbourne will get 3 nominations again next year: Watts, Grimes and Strauss

EDIT: Sorry i see you edited your post about Petterd and put in the odds. Veszpremi is at very good odds, impressed me last year.

I have just taken $50 and plonked $10 each on the below

Grimes @ $34

Rich @ $14

Masten @ $21

Dangerfield @ $21

Henderson @ $51

all bar Rich are 2nd year in system and highly rated but injury/circumstance kept hem out for most of 2008.

Unlucky. Looks like the dees got lucky about time

Instead of thinking like that I think its unfortunate we won’t get to see him play earlier. ;)

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
