Edited by markc

Scully

Trengove

Bastinac or Tapscott

Vardy

Thorp

Gawn

PSD = McDonald

I could see that happening. Though maybe not Gawn... but still, worser things have happened.


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.

I'll have a crack too!

1. Tom Scully

2. Jack Trengove

11. Aaron Black

18. Jordan Gysberts

34. Max Gawn

50. Mitch Thorpe

PSD1. Joel Macdonald

Not too much different to most of you guys I know, but I would be most pleased if something like this transpired.

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!!

2 Trengove

11 Tapscott/Jetta/Lucas

18 Panos

11. Tapscott

18. Vardy

34. Grimes

50. Patrick

PSD 1. MacDonald

Re Rookie J Meeson and add another Ruck Rookie

=1. T Scully

=1. J Trengove (Ican't see how on earth they can be separated, orwhy they have to be - $7500 bonus each)

11. N. Jetta (or any 'second-tier' mid who slips)

18. J. Carlisle (assuming Talia & Black are gone)

34. L Patrick

50. M Thorp

PSD. J Macdonald

We already have Neville Jetta.

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

  • 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.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
