Ted, has been our scholorship player whom played in the NSW team this year. I saw him play against SA at Optus Oval and thought he went well, BASICALLY OF A HALF BACK FLANK.In his follow up match-his last against Tasmania he did not show allot. It is my opinion,Strudwick, whom is 183 cms tall is not the right fit for our team. However, we must have thought he may make it as he has been on a scholorship for 3 years now. I have met Teddy, a fine young man, but we need the best list we can get- even rookie players. We do not have a scholorship player currently.

    I know someone who plays with him at local level. He was shocked when Ted was given a scholarship. Not even the most promising player in the team. I doubt anything will come of Ted.

    I've wondered for a while what happens with Melbourne's scholarship players. Never hear of them. Shame, oh well.

    agree totally with you- and been on a scholorship for 3 years now. I got a shock.

    I remember reading something a while back re scholorship players. It costs money to nominate them, something we don't have an abundance of. Pretty sure Teddy is our only scholorship player and we would have kept him on until now to see if we could reap any reward on our investment.

    To be honest, we only really hear about the success stories and they usually end up at the clubs that have several scholorship players (ie those with money).

    • 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.
