1 & 2. Scully & Trengove

11. Black

18. Carlisle or Bastinac

34. Patrick

50. Grimes, Daw or best available in that order

The Demons could have traded for another top 20 pick off loading a 2 players to achieve this. That would get us a top 20 pick and the opportunity to use Pick 66 or another pick in the PSD. Bastinac will be a great player! Drafting him aswell as not missing out on 2 KP in the top 20 would have been super.

Hi All ... this is my first post on the boards. I thought I'd give nearest the pin a crack ...

1. Scully

2. Trengove

11. Talia

18. Melksham

34. Gawn

50. Thorp

Picks 1 and 2 are sorted so it's really 11 and 18 that will be most interesting. I went the U/18 carnival to watch a lot of these kids and Talia was a real standout from where I sat. Classy tall with great decision making and poise. Can play both CHB and CHF and will develop into a quality AFL player. I hope we don't pick Ball when it comes to the crunch at 18. He doesn't want to play for us and I believe there should still be an excellent prospect available who will become a long term gun player for the Dees. I like Jake Melksham if he's available - the guy is a Dal Santo clone with equally sublime skills. At 34 I think we should take a punt on a young ruckman and of those available I like the look of Gawn. Could become the next Sandliands tapping the ball down to Scully, Moloney and co. Lastly at pick 50, I reckon we give Mitch Thorp a second life at AFL as I think he's a genuine talent and would work well in a Watts-Thorpe-Jurrah forward line if he can get himself fully fit. He's only 23 and by all reports is training with hunger at passion down at the junction.

That's it then from me. Only 4 days to go!!

34- Griffiths

50- Thorp or Patrick

66- pass/PSD1- Joel McDonald.

I've changed mine too because it appears that we will not take Thorp in the PSD and I'm not sure about Patrick any more.

1 Sculley

2 Trengove

11 Tapscott/Jetta/Lucas

18 Panos

34 Grimes

50 Temel/Daw

PSD McDonald

I just have a feeling we won't take Ball, may be wrong but I reckon it's to flush out another club.

1 Jack Trengove

2 Tom Scully

11 Aaron Black

18 Luke Ball

34 Mitch Thorpe

50 Brock McCauley (although wouldn't mind seeing Patrick or Grimes drafted here, although expect us to take a ruckman considering the interest in Meeson)

PSD Joel Macdonald

End result is 3 mids, 2 young KPP's and 1 running defender and 1 ruckman

    PREGAME: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    The Demons return to the MCG to take on the Saints in Round 11 on the back of two straight losses in a row. With Jake Lever out with concussion who comes in and who goes out?

    VOTES: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Last week Captain Max Gawn consolidated his lead over reigning champion Christian Petracca in the Demonland Player of the Year Award. Steven May, Alex Neal-Bullen & Jake Lever make up the Top 5. Your votes for the loss against the Blues. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak
