This is my draft target. Peter Wright.

"VICTORIAN key tall Peter Wright has been dubbed better than Joe Daniher as Melbourne and Carlton eye a forward line saviour in Novembers draft. "

Victorian Peter Wright dubbed better than Joe Daniher as Melbourne, Carlton eye forward saviour

Carlton already lined up to tank, beautiful. You can guarantee they won't get a fine either.

If we don't trade them.... Brayshaw and Goddard

But I'd rather trade them.

Wright has been tipped as a top pick in this year's draft for a couple of years.

If we somehow fail to get access to him I'll be very surprised, and I couldn't see us letting him go if we did end up with pick 1.

He is a big unit, with big wraps on his competitiveness and - most importantly - his skills.

the thing for me that's different about him is with Boyd and Hogan they threw kids around like rag dolls with their massive frames, this kid has another dimension to his game, he is quick on a lead, a good set shot he doesn't rely on his contested marking, reminds me alot of Nick Rewoldt in that way, and he is also a very capable young ruckman

If we were to get access to the first pick/priority pick I'd be very annoyed if we traded our chance to get Wright for a later pick and player. I still am annoyed we traded pick 2 Josh Kelly who has a lot of the qualities we need but have in short supply such as awareness, poise, elite kicking skills, time and a footy brain.

Paige Cardona writes on Bound for Glory News about Tyler Roos, son of you know who - Bloodlines

Roos is on the Sandringham Dragons list and here she described his round 3 game:

Tyler Roos

The son of Paul Roos, Tyler had another polished game for the Dragons and if anything appear to come into his element more with gun midfielder and Sandy captain, Angus Brayshaw away on AIS duties. Roos was a solid contributor, finishing with 25 disposals and a goal. His gut running was a feature, which reflected in his ability to spread, collecting seven handball receives but let himself down with a disposal efficiency of just 60 per cent. Of his 16 of kicks, only eight hit the target which is something he’ll need to tidy up if he’s to take his game to the next level.

Sounds like he might become a footballer with some decent coaching.

I still can't believe there are people like you around that are so blind to his ability.

I mean, I don't really rate your football judgment anyhow, but when it's so painfully obvious, I thought you'd still get it.

My mistake.

That's very disappointing Machsy because I rate your football judgement (note the spelling) big time. In fact, why you're not recruiting for the footy club on a full time basis I'll never know.

However, at the risk of offending your sensibilities, I maintain that Frawley is currently not a gun for us.

*judgment

Look it up.

I suggest you do. It's a legal term. Anyway Machsy, we won and Frawley was terrific.


Posted

So who's the likely pick 5 or 6?

Pick 18 mate.

I don't need to. I know it is "judgment" as do many others.

Maintain your ignorance if need be.

neither of you are (totally) correct. generally the british prefer the 'e', the yanks drop it. both usually accept the other as a variant

what a jidiotic way of spelling it .

You can spell it either way, but the original spelling is always better - ie. the British spelling. So "judgement". :P

    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.
