This isn't necessarily what I'd do, or what i think certain players are worth, this is what I believe the club is intending/wanting to do. They have canvassed that their early picks are on the trade table should a deal be deemed suitable and from every conversation I hear from Harrington it leads me to believe that their preference is to trade pick 13 for a mature player, or package. Especially if Viney comes in the second round.

I love the look of Kennedy, but comments like that really annoy me.

Talk of taking him with pick 4 is silly. But at 13, I'd expect we'd be looking at him and Garlett.

Been watching this kid since he was 14. Whoever lands him will be ecstatic - skilled, speedy and tough. The only knock on him is his height and that's only because of the perceived notion that you ha

Depends on...

Dawes?

Caddy?

other?

Dawes at 13 would be a gross overpayment: is Wayne Swan running our budget?

Hold on to pick 13, use it on Kennedy and utilise picks later in the draft to pick up some mature bodies and established players in the ilk of Towers, Galea and so on.

He does look a good prospect, I hope we dont go wasting pick 13 on mature body that is over priced, when we could get a player hopefully like Kennedy or Stringer who has potentially far greater ability. We should be able to pick up harder older bodies with later draft picks, there is likely to be a flurry of players who cannot be traded who will be dropped to make way for new/fresh blood.

This kid is a gun and is going to be a champion.

Explosive quickness and yet of his avg. 26 disposals nearly half (11) were conrested...he gets to the bottom of.

packs and then breaks away

Small forward pocket who with little midfield experience still averaged 5 clearances a game.

Dual u/18 AA who was nearly taken in last years mini draft by adelaide.

Spent his career with people telling him he's too short and still gotten to where he is...

He must be a competitive beast.

I would happily see the MFC use our pick 4 on him

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak
