Just for fun ...

Fast forward to next Monday, you've just been appointed 'Gubby Allen' for a week and have carte blanche to pick 3 players from other clubs to put straight onto the Deez' list. Who would you pick?

For me ....

1. Lance Franklin

2. Joel Selwood

3. Michael Hurley

Buddy number one easily, wouldnt take Hurley im glad we took Watts well above him, Pendlebury would be my next choice easily

Posted

My first wish would be to be anyone else apart from "gubby Allen"

My second wish would be for a chocolate fountain in my room.

My third wish would be for even more silly and unrealistic threads on Demonland.

Don't you mean Liz Hurley?

Buddy, Pendlebury and Joel Selwood, for me too, please...

Or perhaps Cyril Rioli to fill FP/mid role instead of Selwood.

a never ending packet of tim tams?

I'd prefer a freezer forever packed to the brim with Monaco Bars.

Luke Hodge

Brendon Goddard

Adam Goodes

Honourable mention to '...for posters to use the drafting/trades board to post about trade week'? :P

For me it would have to be Buddy, Pendles and Goodes. Combination of leadership, raw talent and sublime skill. Three things that would help our side immensely. Now, back to reality........

I would only have 1 wish outside of Melbourne getting the likes of Franklin, Hodge, Judd, etc.

That would be Pendlebury going to GWS early, Trav Cloke deciding to walk and for the rest of the comp to pick the eyes out of the rest of the Pies carcass, leaving FIGJAM with absolutely nothing to work with and for the Filth to wollow in their own loser culture crapulence! That is all.

Yes I would have to agree with the majority

Franklin first - we need a big strong focus up front to take the pressure off Jurrah and Watts

Selwood - you just have to admire him and his three premiership medals

Pendelbury - Aside from getting a top notch midfielder, I love nothing more than to take from the Pies.

I could probably shop a lot more but that would make our team pretty damn fine.

Well, obviously Jack Darling because he is the greatest player taken in any draft in the last five years and is exactly the type of forward we have a shortage of...

Seriously though.

Marc Murphy (it's like a description of what is missing from our current midfield came to life)

Zac Smith (Smith+Gawn, and Martin as a relief ruck, unstoppable Fwd/Ruck group for a decade)

I'm trying to be original, but it isn't going to work - Joel Selwood. Can't go past a 23 year old gun mid with leadership.

Posted

Just one would do; Sheedy stuffs up the call on the number one draft selection and picks some talentless nobody by mistake and has to wear it.

Posted

If I had 3 wishes it would be that instead of trading for someone elses superstars we manage to land a future All Australian with every pick we have in the upcoming draft. 3x wishes for 3 drafts. That would be a home grown dream team!

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

    Some veteran Demonland Trackwatchers ventured down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you the following observations from another Preseason Training Session. WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
