Welcome Dave I know you'll give your all.

wow, didnt see this one coming. A bit unsure but i suppose he wont cost us much and good chance (barring no injuries) that he will make the ones!!!

I think this is an ok pick up.

Whats our highest pick?

Are you beside yourself with joy Robbie?

Absolutely, I haven't been this happy since my two youngest kids got measles at the same time, that was 30 years ago.

This way we are ensuring we get him and our late picks probably not of great value in any case. If he goes into the psd GWS or GC could snaffle him

And we wouldn't want that, would we?

Welcome to the club Rodan. Already looking sharp!

Whose body was that originally, and where the bloody hell are they??! :P

Posted

Happy with this. I had a feeling he would be on the radar when he got the flick from Port. Every time I saw him in 2012 I thought he was pretty good. Gets his own ball and then finds space. At the very least he adds depth, but could be more than that.

It was beamers body.. rodan filled it in quite nicely

Probably a poor choice of phrasing.

Nice shading though, that is some good photo-shopping!

I hate to say it, and I really hope this pays off, but the club has overcorrected now. They have gotten some experience in now but what will become of the youth that still has potential to come good? I was all for bringing leadership into the club but it seems now we are picking these blokes as stop gap measures to stop the bleeding.

i'm surprised that people are against this... have any of you seen the MFC play? i think he fit's in fairly well, considering he can get the freaking ball. Always been underrated in the AFL

Was going to ask the same question. I'm assuming the people on this board do watch us play, but sometimes comments reflect otherwise. We are shocking and just lost 3 of our oldest players. Should we instead be drafting someone with pick 79 and delist them 2 years later? We need some older players with bigger bodies, a bit of pace, and a can kick goals. If he doesn’t work out who cares, what has he cost us? You can’t just play an under 24 side every week.

Thanks mate, up for any freelancing work if anyone needs some graphic design - feel free to send me a PM!

And for those wondering who the body was, I used a pic of Rodan and cut out moloney (in action) jumper. Then put that over rodans body with a few tweaks ;)

Ok, I take back what I said in the other thread, fair enough. But when Port don't want you, there's generally a major problem.

A good move if you are bleeding to death.

    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
