What started out as a little creepy stalking thread of a young kid, is now a thread about a really exciting player with loads of talent.  Must be the only Demonland thread ever to have improved w

Billy has been in our sights for quite a while but remains a speculative pick at this stage. That's my understanding. Certainly not a first rounder.

Are we going to be forced to use our first rounder on him; that is the question..

Hopefully we will have one!

I love that we follow our sons of guns but we really need to stop running down the kids or the former player.

I think Billy is developing well and I love the fact he wants to play for our basket case of a club.

We as a club should be nurturing this kid and helping him all the way from here on in like we did with JV.

Total BS.

I remember a rolling maul of constant physicality that advanced the ball 50 metres the wrong way with barely a clear possession. Blokes put in.

We were not quite there and we met a mighty team at the peak of its powers, just like in 2000.

We lost by 96 points. The Hawks ran in waves of 3 and 4. We were roundly flogged that day.

True and the only rolling maul I remember was led by Gary Ayres out of the middle, they ran right over the top of our guys who gave little to no resistance (boys against men). Maybe the post was in jest, I hope it was because they totally flogged us, it was record margin at the time for a GF which thankfully Geelong broke with there win over the Power.

If I were him I would change my last name, move out of home, and say i have never heard if Steven Stretch...or just enter the draft.

But in all seriousness, love having young men who love the club from the get go. Don't know much about him but hopefully he turns out alright.

Everyone shhh, we don't want another Viney situation. Let's all keep quiet so we can grab him with pick 97.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    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
