AFL National Draft 2014 Pick 53


Whispering_Jack

Recommended Posts

Lucas Webb for mine, will be an absolute gun.

Never heard that expression before on Demonland -- other than for Strauss, Blease, Gysberts, Maric, <insert countless other disappointments> :huh:

I think we will look to grab another young prospect here. Perhaps Daniel Capiron, Nathan Drummond, Jack Lonie or Billy Evans. Mathew Panos is a rough chance.

Nathan Drummond would be my first choice at this pick. Wouldn't be disappointed if we chose Matthew Panos either. I reckon Billy Evans will last until the rookie draft and would be a great choice there. Peter Bampton and Tom Wilkinson are two others that I would be happy with at pick 53 although Bampton will probably be gone by then.

Aaron Vandenberg.

Mate, he would love that but the whispers are quiet for him I have heard up here...

Recruiting out of the NEAFL is a tad fraught.

Rookie List might be a go - he is heading to Central Districts if not picked up.

I know it is bit of a stretch.

Im still gunning for Nick Mellington though. Been a fan of his for the last two years and physically would be ready to go.

I reckon Mellington will still be available in the rookie draft and yes I agree he would be a good pick.

    HEAVENS ABOVE by Molly Melbourne

    Who said the football gods and scoreboard attendants at the MCG don’t have a sense of humour? The gods spent a whole week teasing Demon and Bomber fans alike about Saturday night’s game. About how the entire match would be dominated by the hulking, brooding figures of 205cm Sam Draper and his 2IC Peter Wright lapping it up in the absence of Melbourne skipper and the club's No.1, No 2, No 3 and No 4 ruckman Max Gawn in the wake of that ankle injury. They painted pictures of Simon Goodwin ne

    VOTES: Rd 18 vs Essendon

    The injured Max Gawn has a considerable lead over the injured reigning champion Christian Petracca in the Demonland Player of the Year Award. Steven May, Jack Viney & Alex Neal-Bullen make up the Top 5. Your votes for the loss against the Kangaroos. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 18 vs Essendon

    It’s game day and the Demons face a massive test which may determine whether they have what it takes to play finals this season. The task has been made all the more difficult without their Premiership Captain Max Gawn.

    GIANT HEADACHE by Whispering Jack

    The crack in the captain’s ankle might be very small but the repercussions of the injury are enormous. The aftershock of the news that Max Gawn will sit on the sidelines for the next two or three weeks has provided Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin with a giant headache, not unlike the one he faced after the Kings Birthday when another Demon superstar Christian Petracca suffered his season-ending injury. That headache is magnified by the fact that Goodwin is facing a month of tough encounters a

    DERAILMENT by KC from Casey

    It wasn’t quite a trainwreck although at times, it sure looked like one, so I’ll settle for “derailment”.  The trip to Brighton Homes Arena in Springfield outside the back of Brisbane might not exactly be the same place where Homer Simpson’s family resides but, if you listened closely to the utterances of the Casey Demons fans both at the ground or watching via livestream, you could hear lots of groaning and plenty of expressions of “D'oh!” reverberating in the background, particular

    TEN YEARS AFTER by Whispering Jack

    Things have changed in the more than ten years since the West Coast Eagles decimated Melbourne by 93 points on the MCG early in the 2014 season. The two sides had not met at the home of football in the interim until yesterday when Melbourne won by a comfortable 54 points to remain in contention for this year’s finals series. Back in those days, the Demons were in the midst of their Great Depression but they have since tasted premiership glory and experienced a long enough period among

    PREGAME: Rd 18 vs Essendon

    The Demons are back at the MCG once again and will once again be fighting for a spot in the Top 8 as they come face to face with Bombers on Saturday night. Who comes in and who goes out?
