Dees set to take Picks 1 and 2

Pick 1. Tom Scully VIC

Pick 2. Jackson Trengove SA

Pick 18. Luke Tapscott SA

Trengove and Tapscott are best buddies! Tapscott is a solid bodied medium forward (178cm but still growing). Craves to play midfield too I have read.

That would give us 3 players who could pretty much play Round 1. Other picks to be used on KP I would hope. And possibly lure an uncontracted ready made KP from another club with pre season Pick 1.

would love to have Tapscott.. but it is VERY unlikely he would drop to pick 18! I am pretty sure he will be a top 10 pick! :(

After reading this it really sounds like Morton is in it for the long run.

Good boy, Morty. But he's still just saying what the players are naturally going too. I want his contract negoiations cleared up.

Going by the versatility thing Bailey has going Trengove could be our man. IF Trengove as ive read somewere is a strong overhead mark and kick for goal we may not need a Butcher type stay at home forward.

We could develop a very versatile mobile forward line. Sylvia, Trengove, Davey, Petterd, Wona and Maric, can all play Midfield/roaming forward roles. Jurrah in what little game time he has had has shown he could run all over the ground. Watts, Morton and Martin could all provide tall mobile targets capable of pushing up the ground.

We could make it very difficult for the bigger full backs to find a match up against us. Whoever the traditional stay at home full back goes to just pushes further down the ground taking him out of his comfort zone. Meanwhile another forward can push deep taking his opponent deep and also out of his comfort zone.

Basically through rotating our forwards we can reshuffle their backline to the match ups that we want deep and run the bigger backs off there legs.

Here is but a glimpse of the genius that is Tom Scully. Completely awestruck every time I view this clip. 0.52 brilliant kick on natural left. 1.48 look at that technique on his non preferred. And 3.59 just brilliant play.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    After two disappointing back to back losses the Demons have the bye in Round 14 and then face perennial cellar dweller North Melbourne at the MCG on Saturday night in Round 15. Who comes in and who goes out?
