The sentimentalist in me would like to see one game a year where current AFL listed players play for the team they grew up supporting. Given three elite players in Judd, Franklin and Pendlebury all apparently barracked for the Dees we'd have have the start of a very strong team, however i'm not aware of many more to select from. I've started a team below - can anyone help me complete it?

??? Dylan Grimes ???

Jack Grimes ??? Simon Buckley

??? Moloney Andrew Gaff

??? ??? ???

??? Franklin ???

Pendlebury

Apparently, the entire family are big fans and actually, based on the way he's played in the Suns' two games to date, I would like to see the Demons make a big effort to do the right thing by the folks and the lad and organise a reunion.

Without doubt.

Would be a massive get for us. Better than Caddy or Gaff in my eyes.

Thanks for the responses to date. Appaently Lachlan Hansen and Nathan Buckly both supported the Dees also.

Based on some quick research a couple of players suggested above appear to have supported other clubs. (Scarlett - Essendon, Deledio - Carlton, S.Johnson - Collingwood, Roughead - Bulldogs, Brown - Fitzroy, Goodes - Pies, Butcher - Saints)

I have update our team with the other suggestions that I could confirm. (Could not find anything on Lake, Betts or Griffen.)

We are still a players few short of a full team.

With Jack Viney entering the fray next year Prestia wouldn't get a game.We won't be able to fit in all of our midfielders now that are currently on the list,IMO..

Chris Connolly did mention him last week... in regards to a possible poach when his contract is expiring..

Why is Steve Vizard on the Hawthorn list?

Wasn't he on the MFC board about a decade ago?

Gippy

Vizard was a committee member of the MCC until he was forced to resign! (Insider trading: wasn't it?)

    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.
