Obviously didn't give any indications on who he'll take with 1 and 2.

Trengove. Great skills, Great decision maker. Plays like a man's man and a leader. Grows an extra leg when it gets hot.

Morabito. Much taller then last interview. Described as strong, fast, booming kick and maybe a young Matthew Pavlich. Could become a KPP.

Dustin Martin. Top 5 in best kicks and decision maker. In his opinion, probably the best kick and decision maker. Described as strong and very quick off the mark.

John Butcher. Could be one of those players who hasn't realise how they can use their 197 and big frame to really tear games apart. A lot of big players take time to develop that.

Gary Rohan. Got everything that excites. Fast, good skills, good leap and mark, good decision maker.

    he really didnt give much away as far as pick 2..

    i actually got the impression from his interview that they definitely arent leaning towards Butcher!

    Agreed although nothing was actually specifically stated it left me with the belief that we wont take Butcher. It also left me thinking that Martin could very much be in the mix at 2 which I had not considered until now.

    he did say,,,'we look at the players over 5-10years and how they fit within the club...not just to address the need for a big forward'....

    he didn't really give much away...had some good opinions on players..as mentioned above.

    I am very happy Martin in the mix. I have mentioned him a few times in various threads without much positive response, considering his Vic Country game and his form for Bendigo he sounds as good a prospect as any of the other potential No.2s touted.

    Agreed. Harrington didn't give anything away... and they will protect the names until draft day..

    But the comment re: Morabito has me swaying from Trengove to him, if they see him as a potential KPP, Pavlich type then we could have a very explosive player on our side.

    Appears to be alot more skillful than Butcher and if he can move into the midfield when required that would be a huge asset...

    I get the impression Butcher will not be in contention for our second pick come draft day.

    I favour this scenario:

    1 - Scully

    2 - Trengove

    18 - Rohan (if still available)

    But the prospect of both Morabito and Morton running around at the same time is exciting.

    I got the same impression too chooko. He said that when he went to the ground yesterday, he had a big interest in one of the players (guess who). I took it to mean that Butcher is becoming less and less likely to come to the Demons, as Harrington wasn't concentrating much of his time on him.

    tom scully was best for Dandenong... but butcher didn't get in the best or kick a goal...This is the game he went along to yesterday.

    Dandenong 12.17. 89

    Gippsland 10.15. 74

    tom scully is a monty for #1

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
