I think Max King can develop as the missing link.

I would also look to throw the kitchen sink at Sam Day from the Suns.

The 2015 draft is also a key. Parish/Balic fit inti the running midfielder and 2nd round is on Riley Bonner.

    Ok I'll play, although it's difficult to predict.

    FB: Dunn, T. McDonald, Jetta

    HB: White, Frost, Salem

    C: Prestia*, N. Jones, Tyson

    HF: Vandenberg, Hogan, Kent

    FF: Charlie Curnow*, King, Garlett

    FOLL: Gawn, Brayshaw, Viney

    INT: Petracca, Stretch, Trengove, Vince

    EMERG: Harmes, O. McDonald, Neal-Bullen

    * Marks potential recruit/draftee.

    Also worth noting all of Jones, Vince & Dunn would be on their last legs or getting close to it at that point.

    It's funny how immediately our team looks so much better with Prestia in it.

    Melksham is the missing piece.

    This thread should be made after the trade and draft period, its pointless now

    It's even pointless then! We should be looking at the Premiership 22 in 2016 or even 2017!

    Thank goodness.

    The Demonland members who have been around a while may feel that this exercise has been done before.

    Yes, wasn't this year supposed to beginning of our three-peat?

  • Quote

    I hate these threads more than the idea of recruiting Jake Melksham.

    As Nasher alluded to, we should be playing off for our fourth straight flag by now according to similar threads in the past.

    No wondr we lost by 15 goals each week. I'm going to be sick.

    Maybe we should be putting the current doggies squad here, because they are the players I would be backing for the flag in 3 years.....

    On a beer coaster by our CEO...

    For those doing the exercise, in 2018 Salem will be one of our best midfielders

    Somebody remember to post after the end of the 2017 draft!

    Players 23 and under coming through together.

    This is what I'm assuming the coaches whiteboard looks like.

    OSCAR (19) FROST (21) ??

    WHITE (18) TMAC (22) SALEM (19)

    ANB (19) VINEY (20) STRETCH (18)

    VB (23) ?? PETRACCA (19)

    HARMES (19) HOGAN (20) KENT (21)

    GAWN (23) ANGUS (19) TYSON (21)

    ?? JKH (20) TRENNERS (22) KING (19)

    The only two players I have doubts on are JKH and Trenners. I don't know a lot about King but from what other posters are saying he looks the goods.

    I don't buy into specialised small defender. Just play another skilled mid in that position to give us real depth and flexibility.

    The under 23's is why I'm still a member.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.
