Our midfield is probably the worst in the comp, but the forward line isn't much better. St Kilda, Brisbane, WB and Carlton are on par with us, pretty much every other team has us covered though.

Probably? By a country mile.

Probably? By a country mile.

Now that Hayes is gone, St Kildas is just as bad:

Top end talent:

Montagna, Steven, Armitage, Duncan

vs

N.Jones, Vince, Tyson, Viney

Foot Soldiers:

Newnes, Savage, Seb Ross, Ray

vs

M.Jones, Cross, Trengove, Michie

Anyone not listed averaged under 15 disposals in 2014. (Weller/ Billings vs Toumpas/ Riley)

If I had to choose between the two I'd almost take the dees midfield as it stands for 2015.

Off to Carlton...

Liam Jones to Carlton by all reports to replace Waite.

Carlton really do love their mediocre trades. Seem like a club just walking on the spot.

They are running on the spot.

It's a furious status quo.

I'm not sure how anyone could watch the Sydney midfield and think that our early picks would be well spent on mids.

The simple logic is that you can find star midfielders anywhere in the draft, star key forwards are only found in the first round.

Not sure what your point is. Franklin was the best forward on the ground and his team got smashed. Roughead played well, but received plenty of support from players who weren't anything like first round picks (eg Breust). That game, like the vast majority of games, was won in the midfield. That is where we should be spending up big.

I'm really keen to see who we replace Clark as a forward/ruck option.

For Roos to not try and retain Clark indicates to me that he has something sorted.

Cameron would do nicely.

Cameron would do more than nicely. I think I'd be more excited if we picked him up than if we snagged Dangerfield.

Cameron to Saints for pick 1 if anything. It should be the only exchange of a player for a pick that GWS do this year. I don't think they should be trading anyone else away anyway but don't mind they're just playing games of collect the first pick each year

Cue gif with girl saying 'why can't we have both?' :P

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    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

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    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

    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
