Two sheds, you've been really hard on young rp. He's a Ryan O'Keefe type poster after all.

Just to clarify, I wasn't having a go at anyone specific, but yeah, it wasn't very serious :).

Sad thing is, on re-reading it, it probably wasn't that much sillier than some of the very serious, very angry posts that tend to appear here after a loss, or in response to a perceived outrage against the MFC. I'll probably need to lift my game a bit if I plan to post here in the off-season.

Yeah but his problem is that he's 192cm. It all just falls apart at that point really.

Having said that, we need him to stick around long enough to play in the Demonology/Saintsational game. It's imperative we win that, or Demonland will never reach 30,000 posters.

Great call.

What amuses me about Adelaide's attempted manipulation of the draft is that there is zero guarantee that GWS will trade with only them to land them Jack Viney. If he became available this way then every club would have a crack at him which basically means he'll have even less control over where he ends up because GWS will want the best deal possible.

Young Jack has the choice of either knowing where he'll end up or he basically goes into a lottery to the highest bidder, which is even worse than nominating for the draft.

It's his choice

PS Sorry for taking the discussion back to the topic demon_wink.gif

I'm not sure he could do that - against saintsational we'd have to wear our clash strip.

I'm not certain Jack would agree to wearing the colour of surrender.

It's good to see there are still men of principles ;)

wouldn't be surprised if he stayed there considering he has a gf there..

haha, a girlfriend, good one, he's 16 years old.

Knowing 16 year-olds, I reckon him having a girlfriend now would make him want to get out of there more than ever in two years time.

Agree. 192 is neither here nor there.

I'm sorry but you can't not subscribe to my theory but then do so at your convenience like Matthew Bate.

So, at the end of the day it is Jacks choice, right? Should we be worried? Even though Adelaide may be perceived as being [censored], usually home is where family is... i'm a bit worried, as I wouldn't be totally shocked if he decided to play for Adelaide. Lets not forget they are in the greater position to persuade Jack, and he plays with his mates there now, has visited the Adelaide facilities..

Can anyone categorically say we have nothing to worry about, or are we all just assuming he will play for the dees, because we would all give our left [censored]/breast to?

Trouble for you is, it has nothing to do with your theory, even if it did. So what is the beef with Bate anyway ? My respect ladder ? Is that what you're referring to. Because if it is, you have misunderstood.

Welcome back anyway Freak.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but his three options are:

1. Go to Melbourne under the F/S

2. Get picked up by GWS under one of their rules allowing them to get 4 17 year olds

3. Go to the national draft

So, he really has a 1 in 9 chance of staying in SA if he takes option three, by being picked up by Adelaide/Port Adelaide. So why risk it? Besides, he's only been in SA for 2 years now, his dad captained Melbourne and he played footy with Jack Trengove and Luke Tapscott...so we're talking about slim chances of him not ending up a Demon, right?

I really hope WYL knew that 2SJ was taking some urine out of him.

I fear for him otherwise.

Yes i was fully aware. I do know the meaning of Irony thus the use of "Smoking Avatar"

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
