Chris Michaliades

For our 4th round pick at the upcoming draft I reckon we should look for a crumbing forward who can also get a bit of the ball and that leads me to Michaliades from Sandringham Zebras.

http://www.sandringhamfc.com.au/player-list.aspx

The stats there don't take into account what he's done this year which is 14 goals in 11 games, averaging a tick over 7 kicks & 8 handballs a game. So for his current short career he's kicked 20 goals in 25 games.

This guy knows where the goals are and if anyone watched the state game VFL v WAFL this year you would have seen him kick 2 very classy crumbing goals.

I'd use our 4th round pick to secure him and not a rookie pick given we certainly lack small forwards and neither Byrnes or Davey are setting the world on fire at the moment so he could puch for selection early if he's on the list. Curious as to other peoples thoughts on him are that have seen him go arounf in the VFL.

Davey was going pretty good, Byrnes might have some hope under Roos, and i would stick with Kent over this guy.

I am not sure that we still have a fourth-round poick now that we have signed up Cross. At present we have picks 9, 40 & 57 unless we do another round of de-listings.

Therefore the problem is simple. Jetta and Nicholson I have read, are our only 2 uncontracted players. If we think we can pick better, they go if not they stay.

We don't have a second round pick, we have 3rd and 4th round picks - that is what TD is talking about.

We also do not have a 5th round pick so if we were to delist another player and pick a replacement it would be with Pick 94 in the ND (this would end up being about the 75th live pick if used).

I don't think we will take more than 3 in the ND. Maybe delist one either Nicholson of Jetta to use in the PSD or DFA. Maybe.

As has been stated in other threads.

Roos will not recruit a small forward unless he has another string in his bow.

He must be able to play midfield.

We already have Evans who would be ideal as a FP rotating through the midfield.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
