Excellent response RR.

I guess you need some some variety and surprise in the Bluey. Having said that if our 4 most talented players- Sylvia, Davey, Green and Jurrah all play 20 plus games, then we'll likely win 11 + games.

That means another 5 games from Col and 12 games from Jurrah will give 3 more wins then I will buy that!

However it might require something more.

this years favorite for b&f is davey. hands down.

you have to base it on a player who could walk into any team in the league. Jamar and Frawley could do this but davey has been a consistent performer for so long now. rarely plays a bad game. Plus when melb has been getting flogged he has always put in a strong performance.

davey is vice captain. this is proof he is more than just a good player!

slyvia, grimes, etc...all have massive potential. and could win the b&f...but davey deserves to be favorite.

IMO, it'd be difficult to argue that 5 more games from Col and 12 more from LJ wouldn't have produced 3 more wins for the team overall.

1. Sylvia if he stays fit and plays all h&a games will be almost impossible to beat I think

2. Green, can't see him going backwards and will go back to back if Sylvia has any setbacks

3. Garland is the real smokey IMO, was sensational last season. A full pre season this year and like Sylvia if he can play out the season without injury could make the aa list.

Apologies to: James frawley, Tom scully, mark jamar, jack grimmes and jack trengove.

1. Sylvia - easily if he plays all 22 games.

2. Green - so consistent.

3. Scully - will be a prolific possession gatherer.

Apology - Davey (could pip either of Scully or Green).

Unlucky - Frawley (recovery period so will miss games and needs time to work back into things).

Disagree.

It seems like when Davey gets tagged and only racks up 5-10 touches, we get flogged. It shows his value to the team, but we need him to shrug the tag and be consistent.

He'll win the Bluey the year he does that.

Grimes - Will show again he is our most consistent player

Sylvia - Will get most of the ball in the middle

Green - Never far away from the action, inspirational leader

Grimes, Sylvia, Davey in any order.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
