    rpfc, this post needs to be quoted again for it's accuracy. I must admit that I missed that one when I first read it but the implications are very attractive.

    Definitely.. when he debuts in 2013 he will be coming off two years professional training at an AFL club, he will know the coach and his teammates very well and will be under the eye of his own father, no less. What an extremely rare situation.. he will be miles ahead of his colleagues in that draft.

    So does anyone know if and when he will be able to play for Casey or have i missed the answer to that somewhere in the thread!?

    Yes, I would wonder whether 'Thomo' would be agianst this if it was framed such as this:

    If you were running a club and could secure a top 10 talent (for a pick below his proposed market value) two years before the draft so you could properly prepare him for his career would you do it?

    It's a rhetorical question.

    Imagine grabbing Tom Scully ot Jack Trengove when he was 16 and getting him ready for his debut two years later.

    It really is a no-brainer.

    174 cms and 69 kgs.....meh, pass!

    Not sure where you got 69kgs from...

    Hope he grows , be tough to throw around 174cm no matter how hard he is .

    Now 175cm and 78kg. And growing.

    Todd arrived in at the Dees at 88kg.

    hes 16! he will still have another 3 years of growth in him. should make it to 185 at least. relax mofos

    Of course he is or should.

    Not too sure about that

    He is well developed for his age, doesn't look like a late shooter to me

    As an inside mid I'd be happy with around 178

    Current theory for male growth prediction is "For Boys: (Father’s Height + Mother’s Height + 5) / 2" P.S. thats in inches. For centimeters (Father + (Mother + 12.5)) / 2

    So, how tall's his mum??

    haha sorry, mofos just slipped out.

    i think we can certainly count on another 5cm......which is 180. dont forget, boys develop later than girls and can often not finish growing until they are 20....

    anyway 180 is more than enough for a midfielder. the taller the better of course, but its not like we can control it.

    therefore i dont think his height will be an issue ala valenti.

    Well, technically I am one so no worries demon_cool.gif

    Dion Prestia is only 175cm and he got drafted at #9 a week ago. If you are good enough, you will make it. Look at Boomer Harvey from the Roos, he seems to cut us up every time he plays us.

    What?!

    I don't think he means his own...

    So...

    Who's a fan of shunning Col Sylvia the No. 12 guernsey and gifting it to young J, Viney???

    Reckon Jack would be keen on wearing his old man's number?

    Will he want to carve his own path ala G. Ablett Jnr?

  • Quote

    Since Sylvia has 12... yes.

    Only a warped mind would think of incest, that's actually incredibly disgusting.

    Hey, you brought up Mofos and then someone else said "not his own". I went with it :rolleyes:

    Poor Jack, two minutes into his Melbourne career and he's already getting his threads derailed on Demonland. Welcome son, welcome!

    most people probably had no idead what was being said until you spelt it out and ran a highlighter over it, in the process adding tiresome bickering to the thread

    just ignore it

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
