I love Magner but yet to see a weapon other than hunger. I hope it works for him but need to see what he can offer once other teams respect him

I assume by the comment above you must face the wrong way when watching the footy not to 'see'....apart from the great job he did on Scarlett in the 2nd half on Saurday

And Jetta NO way.....have you an explanation as to why

wait til you see what a disappointment jack viney turns out to be !

I presume that you are speaking tongue in cheek, or are you Bluey from Demonology in disguise?

He almost will be a dissapointment given some of the pumping up he gets on this site. Seriously I am not interested in any players until they hit 20, that is when you know what you really have.

There will be 8-10 players in our 2015 best team that aren't listed in the OP's offering. At least half of them aren't yet on our list.

You just cant say that, 2015 is only 3 years away and there is no way that we will gain 8 - 10 players in that time that will put us where we want to be

That is assuming all of those players come on, and given the history of this club in success with draft picks and development perhaps our list in 2015 might look very different.

A lot of your 2015 side relies on draft picks coming on. Which we hope can happen as a midfield of Viney, Blease and Gysberts might prove good value providing the latter two come on. Gysberts was highly rated and showed a lot early before injury. Blease looks a little Cale for mine, but time will tell.

I wonder if the players realise they are playing for their future AFL careers. No side will touch them based on current performance and effort. I wouldnt be joking around myself.

Or maybe it will take FIVE Jacks to break Norm Smith's curse??

Yeah we will, if we don't then we are going nowhere fast (we are now). I would expect us to have between 3 -5 players debut next season if we go with strong mids in the draft and I would also expect Taggert to debut at sometime this year and really step up in the next couple. With trades for Silvia and compensation for Moloney we could look for a Kennedy type around the 23 - 24yo so at the bottom end that's 5 not on the list and not including Viney.

    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.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
