It looks like we won't be participating in the PSD unless we delist someone but that's unlikely as all players are now contracted.

The rookie draft gives us two more picks with the first of these coming in at #3.

That leads us to the question of who's available or who wasn't picked tonight?

I didn't hear Sam Colquhoun of Central District, SA being called out.

Surprise to me as he was a prolific ball winner during the under 18 champs. I wonder if there's a story behind that?

A few other names missing as well, some because of question marks about their conduct.

Dayle Garlett overlooked. Potential top 20 draftee.

Bad behavior off field has prevented him from being selected

Yes, isn't that amazing.

PSD possibility?

Would we pull the trigger in the RD?

Matthew Haynes - elite speed, was a projected top 20 pick last year, AIS program. Didn't have a great year in the TAC but would be worth a rookie.

Wouldn't touch him, last thing we need is more bad publicity if he nicks up.

Jurrah leaving the way he did probably making us steer away even more I think.

Clearly misses on one of Toddy's KPIs - character.

I would take a punt on Garlett.

Read him the riot act with Neeld giving him the thousand mile death stare.

Could pay huge dividends.

We haven't had the senior group to help a kid like that but talent is talent.

Maybe we aren't ready to take on a project like that just yet...

Now this is a guy worth a punt!

Yes from me, didn't have a great year but has a huge upside. With the senior bodies we have now we could afford to take him on. As he is a Carey boy the Viney's will know if he has the right attributes.

Garlett

he is with the punt for sure

Like demon said get Neeld to give it to him straight if he stuffs up he's out the door and I'm pretty sure if he was saying it to me I would be on the straight and narrow trying to repay him for his faith

Lol I wonder if that was what Voss thought when he recruited Fev!

Garlett's talent is so seductive but I couldn't stand another season of off field stuff we have had to put up with this year. Bring on 2013.

Andrew Boston

Leigh Osborne

Shannon Taylor

Boston could be good as a longer term small forward. Bit of time in Casey as understudy to Byrne's / Rodan. Knows where the goals are.

I would not loose any sleep if we had the chance, passed and he went on to make it somewhere else. We just cannot afford a bloke with the ability to stuff up with crap still hanging over us.

Many good ones still available IMO ...

SA : Colquohoun, Vfl - Osborne , Vic TAC: Pongracic , Hams, Mansfield, Haynes , Ballard WAFL: Nelson, Warrell , Lowrie , Wilkins .

Qld : Boston.

For me, Sam Colquohoun has Elite skills and class, and Jacob Ballard is a ballwinner with a mature build. These guys are unlucky not to get drafted and are "good" rookie options. Plenty of good players have come through as rookie. They take the disappointment and drive harder.

Tipgunwuti ?...

Based on the brief set of highlights, I would like to see him rookied,

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
