Todd Viney created two records tonight. He is the first father to call out his son's name at the draft and he was the only manager to record an error in his selections.

What error did he he make? I couldnt watch/listen after the first round

He called the number of a draftee incorrectly and the AFL guys called error and he reread it. Not a big deal though.

I guess an easy mistake to make when the drafts have such long reference numbers. I was thinking to myself earlier i wonder how many mistakes are made.

Thanks redleg

Surprised no-one picked up Dale Roberts

Our propaganda plan seems to have worked. Can pick him up cheap as a rookie?

That's what should happen. He has been lying low and in fact hiding behind Dayle Garlett.

talking of young Garlett, I like a bit of arrogance in a player, but boy does this kid know how to lay it on

so sad for someone of obvious (football) talent and so sad a lot of the negativity will rub off on his 'brothers'

I am trying to shake off one of the worst colds I have ever had. Been over a week already.

I might try inhaling some steamed banana vapours and see if that helps. Nothing else has.

Every training report I see (from Demonlanders) has Davey as the worst performed. Struggling has been the most flattering description of his efforts. I really feel that the time is near for him to make a decision on his future. I would hate to see him go out as an embarrassment.

I seriously doubt he will be embarrassed Redleg.

And neither would I.

He will be happy to play out the final year of a contract worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.

I would happily play out the year at Casey for $300 000+.

Would you retire and forgo the money?

He would obviously get most of the money, it is about clearing a spot for a player who may be able to contribute.

But only if he wants to go

If he does not and thinks he can get back to injury free there may still be a chance somewhere in the AFL beyond 2013.

In his view "where there is life there is hope"

I am trying to post on the thread but can't find it. Does anyone know where it is?

I asked the same question this morning Redleg.

Waiting for nasher to get back to me.

Nearly choked on my morning Coffee

It's barely a footy thread. If it weren't so popular, I'd say it should be put in the Off-Topic section of the forum.

But if it did go there, it would die a slow and horrible death because nobody ever visits Off-Topic.

seems it slipped on a banana peel and skidded right off the forums !!!!!!

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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
