Weve got picks 1 & 2.. now all but Daisy the cow and Drongo Dave seem to agree that this will be Scully and Trengove or at worst Trengove and Scully !!

If we were to say hypothetically pick up the Ball ( yes, intended ;):lol: ) at the PSD then , and if we can harness the force...we'll have Ball, Scully and Trengove..ably assisted by the likes of Grimes, Morton, Jones and Moloney with Blease and Strauss still to come.

Its just mind-boggling how all but overnight how much sharper, quicker and skilled that midfield becomes.

some blokes are really going to have to train and play their guts out if they want to press for this new Melbourne...great isnt it :)

oh..btw...put it in the drafting sides of things..as none of those three are actually here yet !! ;):rolleyes:

    good names but not elite players at the end of the day...

    a somewhat damning prophecy :huh: ...based on ?

    what about adding jack watts to your hypothetical?

    he's my perfect example of a good name but not an elite player...

    I said good names but elite players because your listed players would struggle to get a game for the cats...i see the cats as the bench mark for the comp.

    but i agree...some blokes will need to train harder than ever this year for there spot...i would say the pressure will be on jamar...wit more experienced spencer and hopefully an injury free meesen chasing for the number 1 ruck spot...some healthy comp never hurt anyone :rolleyes:

    is he playing in the midfield any time soon ? :rolleyes:

    My hypothesis is particular to the look and shape of it ( the midfield )

    Any corelation to the Cats is pointless. My point is that the midfield, OUR midfield will take on a completely different look next year. A lot quicker and skilled. The decision making ought to take a couple of big strides upwards.

    You do make a good point re rucking. ..almost a competition with one as to who gets the lollies there. and thats a healthy thing.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
