The Likely Picks?

Would like to see vineyard in the red and blue, but have the feeling that sheedy will put in a bid just to force our hand.

I think that since Todd is head recruiter now there may be a sneaky word in young jacks ear letting him know that 2 years is a very short time in the career of a young afl player and that a 5 year deal would be waiting to welcome him home. This would allow us to maximize our draft picks although witha bit of luck we could get an additional discretionary draft pick.for being so bad for so long

Cannot believe anyone thinks that we won't actually select Viney. Seriously?

Regardless of the pick, he will be coming to Melbourne.

All this talk of passing him up for another club with the promise of a big deal to come back to Melbourne in a couple of years is absolute horse chit and i cannot believe some of you actually entertain those thoughts. Get over it. If it is pick 3 (or 2 or 4 depending on the ladder positions) then so be it. If not all the better.

Sorry mate this will never happen and tod would vomit if his boy was playing for anything but the red and blue.

I also would vomit.

Give me viney before any of the kid's coming through anyday.

That's a high risk plan for a player we want. How do we guarantee the trade? In 2 years Jack won't be a free agent and we (hopefully) won't have the first pick in the draft.

like much in life we will have to suck it in somewhat. Have no doubt if anything can be "arranged " it might be but gee..if we have to pay out 3 for viney...is that the end of time ? hardly/ its still deliverance surely.

Jack is our first pick simple and he shows all the signs of being a very good player for our club. Some of you guys need to get a job in politics or writing spy thrillers with all the angles and manipulations suggested.

What is really important now is that we use our compo picks wisely, there are some good kids in this draft and we need to get the pick of the crop.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    2024 Player Reviews: #35 Harry Petty

    Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    2024 Player Reviews: #22 Blake Howes

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.

    2024 Player Reviews: #40 Taj Woewodin

    The son of former Demon Brownlow Medalist Shane, Taj added a further 16 games to his overall tally of games but a number were as substitute. He is slowly fitting into the team structure but without doing anything spectacular and needs to take further steps forward in 2025 for his career to progress.

    The clever small was unable to cement a place in the Melbourne midfield and spent most of his time this year with the Casey Demons where he finished equal fourth in its best & fairest.

    Bowey’s season was curtailed early when he sustained a shoulder injury that required surgery in the opening game against Sydney. As a consequence, he was never able to perform consistently or at anywhere near his previous levels.  Date of Birth: 12 September 2002 Height: 175cm Games MFC 2024: 14 Career Total: 61 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total: 6
