Let's just say there is no more trading, we could potentially have a draft outcome like this!

1. Scully

2. Trengove

11. Panos

18. Jetta

2 quality (goal kicking) mids

Our big forward that everyone is asking for with this pick

A speedy wingman to complement Scully and Trengove

I, like many others on this site, have not seen many of these players outside of the Carnival and should not really be commenting.

I'll back BP.

hardly any of us are pretending to be experts...the above is solely off youtube/foxsports carnival final day...

would back BP over myself anyday of the week but its interesting to imagine

What about Jack Grimes younger brother. Is he in this years draft or next year. At least we would get a Melbourne supporter.

available this year but from all reports is not expected to go until later in the draft

This is how i would like to see it.

This is probably best possible and probably unlikely.

1- Scully

2- Trengove

11- Talia/carlisle...Butcher if he slides highly doubt.

18- Carlisle/Griffiths

34- Temel maybe?

50-Andrew hooper A medium size defender some say we may need one? and larke medalist.

66- Anton woods- I recon he could be just like david rodan just being a short person my self i believe he deserves a crack.

If we're going to speculate like this...

1- Scully

2- Trengove

11- Talia

18- Vardy/Carlisle/Aaron Black

34- Melksham

and that'll do us for the 2009 National Draft

Couldn't see it going down any better than this, except maybe another tall forward for pick 18 but I'd still be wrapped to get Jetta.

I think your hinting that mines not realistic.. fair enough.

I thought that would almost be best possibility for us, and the later pics i actually rate, the only problem is room on our list.

Im hoping one of cunnington, martin, stevens or rohan slides and we can take them at 11.

Then 18 use on one of the big men who is still around.

You simply cannot have too many quality mids. The way I see it theres 4 flanks, 2 wings, 3 centre square, and 2 bench possies to be shared between them.

Sylvia, Scully, Trengove, Blease, Strauss, Moloney, Jones, Grimes, Maric, Davey, Morton (who incidentally I still hope will turn into a key position), and hopefully another quality mid at pick 11, can all share these positions.

Adding one of Rivers/Garland/Frawley at CHB and Watts at CHF and you have a pretty scary half back to half forward line.

Nah, its just who I'd prefer we take based on whom I think is borderline likely to be available.

Just thought it'd be a fun little spontaneous exercise.

I think Temel won't last til pick 34.

Scully : ^_^

Trengove :D

Talia B)

Temel :)

Daw ;):rolleyes:

Imagine the havoc we will wreak on the rising star award next award

Watts, Jurrah still eligible

Blease, Strauss, Scully, Trengove, pick11, pick 18

Jurrah is not eligible, too old...i would be happy with either of talia or panos with pick 11...

dont forget, apparantly the club is looking at recruiting someone else from NT this year!

This has got me very interested

I'm wondering how it will come about. Will they:

  1. "discover someone" through Jurrah, Davey etc who may not have been going to nominate
  2. Select someone who was always going to nominate but through advice from our NT boys we make an inspired selection
  3. Will it be in the national draft or through the rookie draft?
Hoping for something exciting here

where'd you hear that? why specifically NT? Though it wouldn't be a bad thing. I know my sister taught in Lajamanu, an aboriginal community in the middle of nowhere in NT, and she said she saw some of the best footy talent she's ever seen in those places, but apparently the kids sometimes do get offers to play AFL but are too scared. Maybe with Jurrah taking that first step, we can attract another.

The Aaron Davey Scholarship that was launched a few months ago sets aside a RL spot every year for an indigenous fella from the NT.

Please tell me if I am wrong about any of the particulars, people.

Temel has kicked 2 goals in the first quarter of the TAC GF.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
