Just curious as to whether he's someone we may look at? I know he's taller then Jack, probably a medium sized/tall defender. Just curious as to if he's someone who may be a 3rd or 4th round draft selection and whether he's someone we may look at?

 

I don't know much but I do remember an interview with him on Hutchy's TAC cup show, he was a very impressive kid.

Mike Sheehan was talking about him as a possibility to be drafted, which suggests to me that he will go late.

I would have thought his brother has gone a fair way to getting him drafted. My hope is that we pick him up, would other clubs be scared to pick him up in case he wants to play with his brother? Probably not but I can hope.

According to some people who have seen him on BigFooty, late pick / rookie / not at all. No doubt being the brother of Jack makes him more noticeable, but nothing special I have heard.

 

A friend of mine played against him on the weekend and reckoned he owned the game. I would love to see both the brothers at the club if it panned out.


I was excited at the sound of him but was hoping by this stage he'd have shown more...

Worth maybe a 4th or 5th round pick

well i go to dylan's school n he said there interested in him but he'll just have to wait n see what happens

Who are? Demons? or other clubs?

 

We won't be using our 4th or 5th round picks, and if that is where his value is then we shouldn't be picking him up.


I suspect our last pick will be called earlier than his talent would extend to.

Obviously quite quick and agile, supposedly hes not as good football wise but I think hes a late developer.

He was named BOG in Northern Knights win against North Ballarat and he was in the teams best in there 1st final loss.

Hopefully he is starting to put it together.

He spoke to 14 clubs at the Draft Camp so obviously theres some interest.

With any luck we can pick him up late on in the draft.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    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.
