Looking at that list, I noticed one thing, the ages. The players i personally rate and come up in conversation and debate about, are all the young ones.

Viney- 19

Toumpas- 19

Hogan- 18

Trengove- 21

Evans- 20

Mcdonald- 20

Kent- 19

Taggert- 19

Gawn- 21

Barry- 19

Davis- 20

Fitzpatrick- 21

Tynan- 19

Tapscott- 21

They are all under 22 years old.

Then the players who are 22-24

Watts- 22

Strauss- 22

Blease- 22

Howe- 22

Grimes- 23

Nicholson- 22

Mckenzie-22

So the youth on the list is very good. Especially the players under 21. If we just bring in a few extra coaches, or some more senior players. I really think we can be a very good side in 2-3-4 years time.

Those ages show us that if we keep that group together we will have success. Now that may be a premiership or it may be continuous finals series you can never tell what will happen.

This is a really good reflection of where we are at, another 4 years development into that group and we should be a very handy team, it's just simply going to take time and the right people to build that

    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

    2024 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

    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
