I wouldn't pretend to know much about this crop but this guy looks solid and hard to knock over. A well rounded player and of the type Roos will like.

Depends on whether the guys are happy that we have collected enough grunt.

Dunstan is like Mitchell, Hodge, Hannebery, Bartel. All considered slow but somehow they always seem to get the footy. Dunstan is in the mix at pick 9 but I prefer Freeman, Lennon & Bontempelli.

Dunstan is tough, skilled, tackles and not quick but not slow. He lacks burst pace but wins the footy. Good mates with Jimmy Toumpas. Sometimes the footballers get overlooked for the athletes!!!

I liked the vision of him. Good disposal but is he slow?

He is.

He's maybe not as bad as I've made out, but he's bloody Brock McLean reincarnate.

No thankyou.

Been pumping his tyers up all year but jeez i would love him in our side. Absolute solid unit in the same mould as Wines. Whoever drafts him will be a massive steal and should atleast play 16 games next year.

Any chance at all he could sneak down to pick 40?

I was less keen having seen the video, but yeah, it's not enough to go on. You can certainly see a really solid player, but with a top 10 pick you'd hope for the chance at a star, but I see nothing elite in his game to elevate himself to that category.

I don't remember him moving and kicking so similarly to Matty Bate. He seems to have more nous though.

Dear All. Read these posts ... pick 18 St.kilda gets Luke Dunstan.

We called it. Mature body. Gets the footy. Uses it well. Likes it tough.

(slow ... humbug).

Christian Salem might need a year in the gym to even be ready for AFL.

Seriously? Salem vs Dunstan... if we had taken dunstan at pick 9 demonland would have gone into meltdown.

Salem was picked for our future. Dunstan is ready now, but hasn't the upside of Salem, IMO

today our tall structure was off. we need to get our experienced talls into the game.

Inside hardness is not what we lacked today, but polished foot disposal. Even though we lost the clearances, our biggest problem was overuse of the handball and not long and direct football.

We were so handball happy, we could have done with a kick first, kick second mindset player in the team tonight. A ready Salem would have helped a fair bit tonight with his good kicking skills.

Go return into the ground and have a rest Norm, :)

f the future. We been drafting for the future for 7 years. lets draft for now for once.

we have drafted for now, - vince cross, tyson, michie, georgiou...

but you have to have a balanced focus for now & the future. we've done that.

we were light on for talls going in tonight.

    TRAINING: Monday 20th January 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator attended training out at Casey Fields to bring you the following observations from Preseason Training. GATOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS There were 5 in the main rehab group, namely Gawn, Petracca, Fullarton, Woewodin and Lever.  Laurie was running laps by himself, as was Jefferson.  Chandler, as has been reported, had his arm in a sling.  Lindsay did a bit of lap running later on. Some of the ''rehab 5'' participated in non contact drills and b

    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
