McDonald at 53! What a steal! This has been a superb draft for us. Now we just have to develop them!

Do we need another key defender, or was he just too good to let pass?

Yes. We need another developing key defender!

I'll be interested to see how Gore's career turns out at Geelong. A few demonlanders were pushing his name I believe at our later picks?

Unfortunately for those wanting Reece McKenzie finally gone to Richmond at 77 - looked like he might make the rookie draft for a while

Reece Mckenzie over looked too. Edit - Opps. Richmond just got him with pick 70ish

We have pick 2 in Rookie draft right?

Guess some clubs have preseason picks before us though.

He went at Pick #77.

Don't you people pay attention to what's going on?

Would like Bampton from SA as a Pre-season or rookie option. Hard midfielder with good leadership.

"They're going to be a good side, Melbourne."

Uh-oh, that line again.

I just have to say it, I'm thrilled with this draft. Getting both Petracca and Brayshaw is an insanely good result already, but landing Oscar at 53 as well is way beyond what I'd hoped. Stretch of course, and one of his mates from Glenelg at 40 is a nice touch. Nev upgraded. The only way it could have been better is if Lever somehow slipped to one of our late picks.

We should be very happy with what we picked up. Really consolidated our midfield depth (and talent) and got the developing key back we needed.

His old coach is in record saying he beat Petracca head to head - might go alright

I didnt wanna get too excited as we MFC supporters have been burned so many times

But then I saw the interview with Petracca and Brayshaw

Never seen two freshly drafted kids that excited going to any club before, let alone the MFC

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
