Time to start speculating on who we'll take 1 & 2 now that its a virtual certainty.

No surprises here:

1. Scully

2. Trengove

 

It will be pick 1 and 3.

We will take Scully at 1 obviously.

Dockers may take Trengove at pick 2.

So who would people like at pick 3?

Please don't count your chickens just yet, if we beat Freo, we could finish 15th on percentage

 

We could still beat the Roos too. I don't think we will, but on today's performance we could very well win it. Then there's Carlton, who aren't the most reliable side either.

Fair call. But who should we take at pick 2 or 3?

We all know the names by now, its too late for a real smoky to appear.

Trengove, Morabito, Butcher, Lucas, Rohan, Koby Stevens...

I'll chuck in Lewis Jetta too.


Lewis Jetta looks to be an absolute marvel.

Cyril Rioli, but even better.

Would take him at pick 3 for sure.

LOL Havn't we been doing this for the last month ?

Freo still have Port and Essendon still to play at home, they could win at least one of those games

 

Check out Lewis Jetta playing in the WAFL state game at the age of 17.

The goal at 1:40 is insane.

As others have suggested it will likely be picks 1 and 3.

It is far from a forgone conclusion though. We will beat Freo I think. But Freo still have home games against Port Adelaide and Essendon to come. Depending on which Freo shows up and which Port and Essendon show up, Freo could pinch one of those which would give us picks 1 and 2.

Either way, we're getting Scully and another quality player. That's enough for me to know.

Good vid, but there is so many stupid highlights in those videos. One highligh was the ball going over jetta's head and someone else kicked the goal, why would we want to see that.

A west coast mate of mine has said for some time that they are really interested in Morabito with their first pick. Clearly the home sickness issue is a major one for all clubs. With the strength of the WA team at the Nationals he was talking up their local crop as having some great options.

Scully and Trengrove for mine - -Maybe Butcher might sneek through to our second round pick (19 I guess), wouldn't that be the perfect result! ( I know, dreaming)

Scully + pick 2 can be secured as early as next week.

If:

North Melbourne def. Melbourne

AND

Fremantle def. Port (at Subi)

If those two games pan out as shown then we are practically guaranteed picks 1 & 2

Best case scenario is Scully and Trengove. Hope that if freo gets pick 2 they pick a WA boy (Lucas or Morabito). Saying that i would be happy with Morabito or Rohan at pick 3 anyway.

Looks very good. Whether he's worth a pick 2 or 3 is the question. But you never know what the scouts are saying and thinking.

Is he Neville's brother or cousin?

The thing about drafting is that half the game is assessing where other clubs are ranking the players. We might consider Jetta to be worth a pick 3, but if the other clubs rate him further down the list, it's worth hanging about and hoping he might fall to a later pick for us and picking someone else with pick 3.

From what I understand, in 2007 we were considering both Morton and Grimes with our pick 4. We went with Morton and couldn't believe our luck when Grimes was still available at pick 14. So you never know how it's going to pan out.

Anyway, he looks good. Wouldn't mind seeing him in a Melbourne jumper. It's just the price that is the question.

WE by know means have sown up the priority pick YET.

It's a fools paradise to think that before we play North then FREo'.

Lets Keep our eye on the pill.

Wouldnt surprise me.

Surely a draft section must be opened on this forum? Or do we wait till seasons end,

I bet we'l beat nrth and freo now

Don't even think it.

I actually have some hope now that we'll even lose the Freo game. They did get up by 50 points against us by half time last year. Granted they lost, and granted it's a different team... But I'd suggest the players would be HUGELY hungry for a win, and we may be their only chance for the rest of the year.

If we do end up losing to them, then it's done and dusted. We could start barracking for the team to win again, and be assured of picks 1 and 2.


Hope so, if crocker wants that job next year hed wana beat us.

I bet we'l beat nrth and freo now

no chance for north. Crocker desperately wants and needs a win if he is to be the coach next season, and the players are openly saying they want to get a win for him.

I hope we absolutely [censored] Freo though.....8 goals

Not as good as the one at 7:40... from about 70 out...

I question the opposition though. They're all grown men, even some AFL listed guys, but they were moving like treacle.

Looks pretty spesh, in any case,

 

just an update

Sun 12/Jul - Sandringham Dragons v Dandenong Stingrays

Tom Scully - 30 Disposals

He hasnt played the last 2 or 3 weeks.. not sure if he is injured?

Sat 18/Jul - Northern Knights v Gippsland Power

John Butcher - 2 Goals, 3 Behinds

Sun 26/Jul- Gippsland Power v Oakleigh Chargers

John Butcher - 5 Goals, 5 Behinds

anyone got any progress on how Trengove has been going??

Dockers may take Trengove at pick 2.

i doubt they would take trengove.. i am pretty sure they would stick with a local boy just incase they bail on them..

..plus it is Freo.. they will probably trade it for some old guy or pick some hack predicted to go round 5 or something stupid :lol:

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
