There has been a few threads of late talking about drafting and trading.

What is happening with our recruiter since Prenders left?

People said he would have been sacked, but if that was the case i would have thought we were confident about replacing him? which to my knowledge hasnt happened?

We are heading into what has been labelled the next big Superdraft since 2001, and we dont have a head recruiting manager........W-T-F

This worries me, people need to follow players for upwards of 3-4 years coming into U18's

And we might end up with 4 picks inside 25....

Big drafting year coming up and i hope that we are suitably prepared for it

Yes i agree but we would have a fair idea about the kids out there. Maybe we should try get the geelong guy he has a good track record and melbourne has done well at getting big names to the club this year. GO DEES

Yeah my worry is that, at this time of year most clubs will have the recruiters locked in for the season? so will we end up with the 18th best AFL recruiter in the land?

Perhaps we could roll out the cheque book and poach Phil Scully from GWS (They seem to rate him highly). To seal the deal I suggest an innovative tactic... We'll pay one of his family members way above what they're worth to play for us!

I don't think the daughter's tall enough to make it in AFL football.

And wears way too much spray tan.

Wait, it's still open season on mindless Scully family banter, right?

Not sure what to make of this, Viney might be capable but would prefer to have someone who has also watched the juniors over the past 3 or so year U16 up to be deciding on our biggest draft since 08.

There is already a thread on the Viney recruiting. And there is also a Lord Voldermort thread to thrash the issues on Scully

Please use those threads.

    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

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)
