"Christian has worked hard all year and his reward is a career at St Kilda.

Life is a cruel mistress.

He may be the only draftee in the entire history of the draft to hope to slip to Melbourne."

I laughed. Then I cried a little bit at the last line. Then I laughed again.

To the contrary, i think that it is the best draft preview that I have read. Lots of truth tucked away in there!

PICK 13. FREMANTLE

Sam Durdin (West Adelaide)

H: 197cm W: 87kg

Sam was born in 1996, two years after Kurt Cobain died. You feel old, right?

What’s he like as a football prospect? He’s tall but how about that Cobain thing?

Mind blowing.

I agree, obviously he loves satire, but out of all phantom drafts, his draft order will probably go closest to the pin!!!

PICK 5. COLLINGWOOD

Jayden Laverde (Western Jets)

H: 189cm W: 82kg

Jayden is the perfect fit for Collingwood. Not necessarily in terms of football but due to having the name ‘Jayden.’

Gold.

What's even more remarkable is the sense of humour Titus has maintained, considering he's a Melbourne supporter.

"Angus is a tough midfielder who loves contact, so he will stand out at Melbourne like a James Hird hater on the Essendon Board."

He's really one of us at heart isn't he :)

Titus dares to write what the others won't/don't...........something original :)

"Isaac Heeney (Cardiff)

H: 185cm W: 82kg

Isaac was built in the Sydney Academy using DNA from Paul Kelly and an actual swan.

This means he’s aggressive at the ball and mates for life."

Comedy gold!

I concur with Moonshadow: the Isaac Heeney one is pure gold.

A great review and probably as true as any and brought quite a few laughs.

Liked this one the best:

PICK 6. GWS GIANTS

Jordan De Goey (Oakleigh Chargers)

H: 187cm W: 82kg

De Goey was against going to GWS until he saw what Tom Boyd managed to achieve there.

Now, he’s trying to work out whether to get a Ferrari or an Aston Martin Vantage in 2016.

PICK 8. GOLD COAST


Liam Duggan (Western Jets)


H: 183cm W: 75kg


Liam said playing under Rodney Eade would be ‘fine, I guess’ before saying he was going to his room to play FIFA for ‘at least a few hours.’


He later came out when the pizza was delivered.



My sort of guy.

    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.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. 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
