yes please !!! tall key swingman, 197cm ish, very handy from the little I've seen & read... imo a really good fit for our group, his size & athleticism would add a lot of what we need.

Must admit that I haven't seen much of him, although he would be an upgrade on someone like Fitzpatrick and even a potential replacement for someone like Chip. I'd hazard a guess and say Carlton, St. Kilda and the Dogs will all chase someone like him very hard and they would have the cap room to make him a very decent offer. Not saying we won't chase him or that we can't get him, just that there will be plenty of competition for his signature.

Is a Carlton supporter and they are in to him, as well as every other player named as possibly moving clubs.

I would imagine if you could get a good mid from GWS for pick 3 he could be part of the deal.

Went to school with Viney - which gives us a link. But also went to school with McRae and Hrovat - which gives W Bulldogs a link - and they need KPPs. If he doesn't go to one of the strong clubs - I reckon the Dogs would offer him more than we will

After last night he would be embaressed to run out on the field with Carlton. I like your suggestion that he be packaged up with another Tyson-type mid from GWS, especially if Frawley departs and we can utilise the compensation pick for the swap!

I wouldn't offer more than our second round pick, someone will trump that

Likely to be at the Dogs next year. They have big need for KEY FWDS. He is target after Dogs missed Patton.

hopefully a Demon spanner will get into that works.

Unless they get Frawley, as per Crawford's random speculation today.

Anyway, at this point Jaksch has show very little. Jaksch it, even. But that would appear to be mostly injury-related.

All that said, the phantom draft write-ups on Jaksch are pretty stellar, and really that is all we have to go on. Much like Tyson, really.

Would take him, but not at a high price.

Can't imagine any possibility of being embarrassed to run out on the field with Melbourne.

Judd was a Melbourne supporter, once Jaksch has had a look at our facilities....who cares. He hasn't shown much to date.

Absolute no brainer. Taller, tougher version of Bontempelli and one of the best contested marks for his age that I have ever seen. The only reason he has flown under the radar is due to injury. A classic Dom Tyson scenario all over again if we can pull this off.

What's all the fuss about with this kid? All I can see with him is that he was once pick 12 and shown very little in two years. If you could get him cheap, sure, go for it. But if talking about early round picks then wouldn't you be better served trying your luck on another tall in this draft?

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
