Trengove to go #1 in draft

Recommended Posts

he's bullshittin',,,you would need to review all tapes and watch as many games as u can. that's his job..

how could u spend time picking 11 and 18 if you couldn't rank them against 1 & 2? ie.., you'd need to know all the numbers through to 18...to know how to draft from 1 - to - 18...i would think...

Make no mistake Scully and Trengove are stand out 1 and 2 regardless of order....

We are going to be blessed in the coming years....well I bloody hope so!!

i'm all for scully and trengove,,,1 & 2,,,it will be debated for a long time who should have been number 1.

i'm just saying u need to watch the whole group to know wat a pick 11 and pick 18 could be...and how it could change if something random happens in the draft.

You've posted twice, and your triple commas are infuriating. :wacko:

He all but came out and said its a coin toss between Scully And Trengove as to who goes first but that they are by far the two standouts.. Case of join the dots really.

Throughout the article, the feeling went from- 'we cant tell you who we want for our top picks, but Trengove's up there' -to- 'we cant tell you who we want to pick 1st out of Trengove and Scully' ;)

Poor BP would just want to shout it from the rooftops by now, you'd think..

BP cannot wait for their respective draft numbers to be published by the AFL, so he can begin practising calling them out.....

"Player number 37425......"

"Player number 32487....oops I mean 6....."

I have just heard off someone who would know. Unless that person is trying to throw people off track, then that is how it will happen.

Not to dispel your theory however any tom dick or harry could have made that statement and said they heard it off someone in the know. However i do think you are correct in your theory.

I love players that have the ability to get their arms free in a tackle, Scully and Trengove from the vision I seen have this ability. Hopefully Nathan Jones can learn this, the ability to take a tackle and off load.

The best part from what I have seen of Scully is that not only does he get his arms free, but he delivers a rocket hand pass and usually hits a teammate on the tit with it. I recognise that when looking at highlights you only ever see the best bits, but some of his handballs are jaw-dropping.

Thats why guys like Blease, Strauss, Davey, Maric, Jetta, Sylvia and Green are so important you get Scully Jones and Moloney, feeding these guys at full speed and all of the sudden playing in our forward line becomes a lot easier.

Correct. Although it isn't a theory, it was what I was told.

I have a life, so making a statement and hoping its right to bignote myself on an internet forum isn't on my list of things to do.

It's no revelation we are taking those 2, but there are people debating who should go first (not that it really matters), and I was wondering myself. So when it was confirmed to me I just thought i would share it.

While I agree that you always have to take a players' highlights reel for what it is, just the highlights... there's still a meaningful comparison that you can draw. Scully's highlights are better than anyone else's highlights.

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo
