Club recruiters have been putting together dossiers on these kids all year. It might make a small difference, but I don't see wright winning time trials, beep tests etc and everyone has him top 3.

It's part of the puzzle, not the whole picture.

I love that he is a competitor, a performer and attentively leader.

Welcome B. Stretch, S.O.S

Exactly I think way too much is put into these combine results, well by some Demonlanders anyway. Time trials and beep tests are all well and good but they are just complimentary to the real stuff which is can the kid find the footy and what does he do with it when he gets it?

    No they won't, it will get traded to Essendon for Ryder.

    FS bidding is done before trades so they can use it for both if they really wanted to.

    No they can't really, if we call them on it then they have to take Billy and say goodbye to Paddy. Don't think they will do this.

    Yeah but they know we'll take him anyway that's the point.

    Depends on integrity though, and I don't think the Power are a Club lacking that.

    If any club bid their first rounder for him we won't take him. If St K bid their second rounder we will take him second round. Simple.

    FFS this is all sorted out beforehand so there are very few surprises. He'd be worth our second round anyway.

    with 12 F/S prospects, lets hope Billy can slide to a 4th round pick.

    Welcome Billy!

    Will ultimately be a pick in the 40's. Pretty good value pick up. Another era of Viney & Stretch, with hopefully a Lovett to come next year.

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
