So we are gonna recruit pretty poorly in the next 5 years?

What a funny thread.

I think we have the answer to the above question. Thank Christ we finally have a team steering the club in the right direction.

I was thinking about all the quality we have received over the last 3 drafts in particular. I thought i would do what our team will look like when all our current leaders such as Bruce, Green, J mac and Davey are no longer playing. This is my possible 2015 Team which is when we will really be dominating the competition like brisbane (01-04) and geelong (07-09). Obviously we will draft a few new players over the next 5 years but this is my best team looking into the future.

Note: I included Jack Viney (2011 Father Son Pick) in the team because im sure he will be part of best 22, will be a gun!!!

So what does everyone else think?? Any changes you would make?

I think it looks like an awesome team and I cant wait til 2010 to see the start of the careers of some of our future stars!!!!

One other thing i was thinking who would be captain and Vice?? thought Moloney could be a good choice, then i thought in 5 years time Grimes, Watts, Scully and Trengove could all be worthy. Its a tough one. What does everyone else think?

Go Dees!!!!

its nice to dream guys but i member back in 2004 we had a thread about our 2009 premeiership team and it had blokes like adam fisher as rover, nick smith CHF steven armstrong on a wing and dale carson at full forward!!! i even cameron hunter and ryan ferguson getting in the best 22!

Sorry was doing some digging around and found this quite funny! (Not shooting down the OP) but hows this for a flashback!

You were right though.

I wonder which names we'll be laughing about from this team in 5 years time. Hopefully not more than 70%, as is the case with the OP...

I reckon at least 7 or 8 of those won't make it and will drop off. Seems a more solid core than last time though.

I'm amazed that someone has the time or dedication to dig that deep into a footy forum, DD36 should be the number 1 ticket holder for the MFC next season.

Classic. Now you recently joined D'landers know why the oldies all groaned when we saw that future flag side pop up recently.

4 players left at best. Gosh, what a train wreck.

I've been here for coming up 5 years so missed this thread by a couple of drafts.

Most I've laughed from a 'thread-bump' in that time.

By a long way. :)

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    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.
