Vince Hogan Petracca

Gartlett (the missing piece) Watts

Gawn Brayshaw N.Jones

Kent Tyson Neale-Bullen Vandenburg

emerg. Michie Jkh Harmes Grimes Trengove

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.

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!

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.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
